[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Voted for Trump, different values [/quote]

Likewise. She laughed at my face when I told her that I voted for Clinton. When I look back on our conversations I realize in retrospect that she is racist. For example, [b]she said she would be upset if her son dated a black girl.[/b] 
Covid was a good excuse to distance myself. Now I just send her a message on her birthday. [/quote]

But, would you be mad if your son dated a Trump voter?

See how that works?[/quote]

It doesn't. Black people are people. They weren't given a choice about their race, and they don't deserve to be discriminated against because of it. Black people deserve the same rights, freedoms, and access to life resources all people enjoy. Black people also have a diverse array of viewpoints, beliefs, etc. so simply being Black isn't enough to tell me anything about them beyond their race (because I'm not a bigoted fsckup like... some people).

A Trump voter chooses bigotry. Chooses violence. Chooses stupidity. So yes, regardless of configuration, I would be upset if my kid brought home a Trump voter because of the openly intolerant nonsense they vote for and support. I might entertain them, briefly, on the off chance that they might adapt and evolve once presented with better information. Unlikely, but people can and do change. But the moment they once again chose their idiocy? Out. And I wouldn't feel the least bit bad about it. They chose.[/quote]
