I don't think you understand bigotry the way you pretend. I remember what my dad was like before he started watching fox and the way it rotted his brain and how it turned him from a reasonable well spoken human to a republican bigot. I see that in a lot of liberal discourse, but people think they are special and will never fall for the same shit that turned the party of Lincoln to the party of trump.
so your dad was brainwashed by right wing propaganda, what exactly are you trying to tell me with that?
The point is no one is immune to that. Its not exclusively a right wing thing.
so that makes it ok to be a bigot? it's not their fault?
Did I say that?
no I'm asking, what point are you trying to prove? how is it relevant to the discussion?
That anyone is vulnerable to that kind of brainwashing
ok but that irrelevant to what has been said before
