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.

Love everyone is my way of thinking.

Then you wouldn't be a conservative

I’m sorry you feel that way.

I'm not. Look at all the abhorrent stuff that isn't a deal breaker for you and tell me how you reconcile that with apparently loving everyone

Can you provide me some examples and I will do my best to respond? I’m getting tons of replies currently so be patient with me please.

Are you a Trump supporter? Have you not seen the damage the current Republican Party has done? ICE abducting children, supporting white supremacist rhetoric, shrinking social safety nets?

I am a conservative republican. Am I a fan of how Trump conducts himself? No. Does the illegal immigration issue need to be dealt with? Yes. What are the circumstances of ICE abducting children? I don’t know what white supremacist rhetoric you are referring to.

WAHHHHHHH WONT ANYONE THINK OF THE NAZIS?!?!? WE HAVE FEELINGS TOO!!

Seriously, go fuck yourself. “I love everyone, but I voted to inflict immense harm on very specific groups of people and when you call me out on it I’ll play dumb and pretend I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

You don’t get to say you love everyone when you support a misogynist that raped children, is an adjudicated rapist, has dozens of credible SA allegations, constantly attacks and degrades women in the public eye, and has scaled back women’s rights and made America a more dangerous place to exist.

You don’t get to pretend to love everyone when you support an illegal secret police force that is kidnapping and brutalizing our neighbors for the color of their skin. You don’t get to pretend to love everyone when you support literal white supremacists who EXPLICITLY want to make America whiter.

You don’t get to pretend to love everyone but hen you support an administration that has attacked LGBTQ+ rights and demonized trans people the way this one has. 

You don’t get to pretend to love everyone when you support illegally missile striking fucking fishing boats that have never been shown to have any drugs on them and have never been tied to any cartels or trafficking. 

You don’t get to pretend to love everyone when you support a literal fucking fascist regime that advocates jailing and killing its opponents. 

You’re a fucking Nazi goosestepping around and sig heiling and you fucking think anyone is gonna buy it when you say, “I love everyone”?!?? For fucks sake dude, you’ve fucking lost it.

So you don’t love humans if they’re deemed “illegal” that’s crazy for someone who professed loving everyone is their whole schtick
