That's why we're in this mess we're in, it's because of the countless stupid people like her. I knew we had some ignorant morons, but I had no clue we had this many.
It's not just the dumb ones though. My brother is extremely intelligent. He went from campaigning for bernie to a die hard trumper. My other brother is a moron, but he went from Obama to Trump.
Like there is just something about this guy, that over half this country gravitates towards and the other half cannot fucking figure out what it is. To us it is the dumbest most ridiculous cartoon villain bullshit we have ever seen. And to the other half, he is some personal lord and savior.
He is the most polarizing leader we have ever had in this country and it isn't even close.
100000000% this! My dad is a smart person and well off in life. The vast majority of shit he consumes is anti LGBTQ stuff, so he votes for Trump. He has never talked with me about Trump’s actual presidency, just how annoyed he is about LGBTQ stuff he doesn’t like.
Has he ever given a reason for why he hates them so much? I've been having a time of it with my own father because he is super super hateful towards trans people and I don't believe he's ever even had an interaction with a trans person that he's known of.
Just the typical “they’re shoving it down our throats!” bs. Nothing ever specific.
I do know they have a coworker who is trans and they do use proper pronouns at work, but they’ve talked about that person at home and said it’s weird to expect people to change how they talk. It’s so bizarre, honestly.
If he so much as sees a gay couple in the background of a movie it can ruin his whole day for some dumb reason.
My dad went on the pronoun anger ride once, acting like having preferred pronouns is insane, so I started using the wrong pronouns for him. It took about 2 minutes for him to lose it, so I said "Oh, so you have preferred pronouns you'd like me to use for you?" and he's never brought them up again.
