    This is some crazy partisan shit.

    “Nearly every act of racism, xenophobia, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, antisemitism or other bigotry ever committed on earth has been at the hands of conservatives.”

    Let’s talk about first and second wave feminists or terfs like Sheila Jeffreys. Or who pushed Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policies. Or some the unsavory views of Theodore Roosevelt. There are so many instances of progressives and liberals getting it wrong and causing harm. Conservatives do sometimes get it right if they are consistent. This current brand of American conservatism is bonkers though.

      It does bug me that partisans of either stripe conveniently ignore so much in order to find satisfaction with their preferred narrative.
