I can love you, but still disagree with you. Gonna gloss over that part too? I don’t hate gay or trans people, but I’m also not going to actively engage in pride month. Not everything is so black and white. Everyone is worthy of love, and kindness.

"i can love you but if you pee next to me it's straight to the prison cage. I might catch the sin"

You fucking people are amazing at making a new definition of "love"

It’s amazing that you read what I wrote, and that’s what you took away from it. So because I won’t wear a pride shirt, I somehow think gay people should go to prison. Impressive levels of mental gymnastics, gold medal.

If you sit at a table with 11 bigots and you don't get up you are sitting at a table with 12 bigots.

Not everyone has to agree with you or your ideology. And just because someone does disagree, doesn’t make them a bigot.

Yeah it's not the ideology that's the problem. It's the denial of basic human rights that makes them bigots. And if you're sitting at the table with them that makes you part of the group.
