Follow-up post. Matt Van Swol had another good post today.
"For years, I was told by the media that MAGA focused on gender too much.
That the “trans-issue” was just a culture war talking point.
That anyone pushing back on gender ideology, was undeniable proof of their bigotry lurking underneath.
I believed this, hook, line, and sinker.
It’s shockingly easy to judge others when someone in authority gives you blanket permission to assume someone with which you disagree, has motives which are evil. If they are evil, you are good.
That’s the lie the Left spoon fed to people like me for a decade.
It’s why you see so many videos of what look like crazy leftists crying on camera every day about Trump.
For them, like it was for me, it is an existential issue of good versus evil.
It doesn’t matter if they are wrong on the issue, they simply believe that evil MAGA people can only put forth ideas which are evil.
It’s why you saw nearly every single democrat in Congress sit for some of the most beautiful things.It’s why they wanted to deplatform everyone on the right.
It’s not about the issues.
They tricked a generation of democratic voters, including me until very recently, into believing they had moral superiority on any issue because the other side was just evil masquerading as logic.
I see now, that it was all a lie."
