Well yea but when it comes to politics, nothing has only advantages. I just hate how this exact policy receives so much aggressive hate from liberals for not more reason than liberal policy has
You say this as if conservatives aren't aggressively hateful lol
People hate the hatred fueled by conservatism
I have only seen a lot of hateful liberals. That's why I said that. It was more of a rant. Seriously why are they so aggressive? They only make this world worse with their hatred. Though I'm sure there are aggressive conservatists too. I just haven't seen them yet
Never heard any anti-trans rhetoric, or just agree with it? ‘Cause I see calling for a group to be eradicated from public life as generally making the world worse.
In other words, watch CPAC and try to remember that the things they say are about real people, and they pass legislation negatively affecting those real people.
I don't even think I'm a conservative. I don't follow any conservative speakers, leaders etc. And I respect different opinions. But hatred is always bad. I saw a ton of hateful and aggressive liberals that seemed to act aggressively towards any different opinion (not only conservative I think). That is always bad. If you like aggression, well, I'd suggest therapy
Where did you see it? I’ve seen a ton of stuff like that on social media, but social media amplifies awful takes and has a large population of people lacking perspectives. It doesn’t represent the real world all that well.
Speaking on aggression, there is a large contingent of people in this country who are actively hoping for a civil war and the opportunity to shoot their neighbors over opinions they don’t like or living lives they don’t approve of.
Yes I was talking about social media. I know they don't even remotely represent the whole population but the fact that liberals were the most aggressive remains the same. I hope in real life there are a lot of peaceful and kind people. And the USA have become aggressive in all possible ways recently so that was expected. Maybe that's one of the reasons to liberals' aggression too since they are mostly American afaik. Well hopefully it will all stop soon. People shouldn't be like that no matter their political views and preferences
The hatred from conservatives that I'm referring to is through the legislation they pass that has IRL consequences and ruins people's lives
I'm not going to argue. I have a completely different opinion
It’s not subjective, it’s fact. You’re welcome to your own opinion, not your own reality.
It's pop politics. Pop politics and marketing is the enemy. Regardless of sides.
It's like the difference between real art and pop marketed art. Street rap and pop rap etc.
So there's some reasons to hate then? The question asks about things hated for absolutely no reason.
Yea I know. That comment was a rant. I just hate aggression like that
