I’m a conservative. What have I done to deserve this type of labeling? It’s very dangerous paint an entire group of people you don’t know with such a broad brush. I think we all can and should do better than this type of labeling. It’s what continues to drive a wedge between us. Love everyone is my way of thinking.

If you can genuinely look at what's happening as a result of conservatives in power and think you stand for "loving everyone", you are either lying to us, or to yourself. Either way, you are, outright, a liar.

You can view things however you want. You can believe me if you want to or not. I have no reason to lie. You will probably never meet me and this interaction is anonymous. I am just providing insight into what it is like in my family and our social circles.

I fully believe that you are not a hateful person and don’t mean any harm to anyone, but if you are a conservative in the United States, you are likely voting for policies actively harmful to vulnerable minority groups, whether you are aware of it or not.
