I just want to say my conservative and libertarian friends have never, ever given me shit for not liking Trans people. My progressive friends on the other hand, who are straight, why don't you try it? You're being hateful. Each day that goes by I go further conservative.

    Why is this? Because the Western Right's outgroup is people who aren't Westerners. BUT the Western Left's outgroup is the Right. This is the best explanation I've ever heard at this link. A bit long but worth reading every word because it answers SO many questions.

      Isn't it absurd that in many ways religious conservatives are now LESS homophobic than the people who want to be attached to the LGB movement are?

      It's truly a wild time to be alive. It's funny because I still don't understand why anyone regardless of political affiliation cares who I am sleeping with. Shouldn't I be the only person who cares? lol
