Most people just want a good life. If we stopped seeing each other as the enemies the world could be better.

    nah.

    I can’t have empathy for fuckheads that want to kill and imprison people based on their sexual preferences or their identity.

    I refuse to subject myself to the torture of “working together” with people with fascist ideologies.

    I cannot, and will not, coexist with Nazis.

      I think op meant more along the lines of normal, everyday people, not radical extremists who hate everyone that isn’t like them.

      and by normal, I mean non hate driven people. I believe everyone is weird in some way, there is no “normal”.

      the way I described it to my son is everyone has the same right to be happy as he does, you don’t get to dictate that to anyone. we love you for your weirdness and expect the same for anyone else.

        In many countries most normal people will harass, imprison or kill people based on sexual preference or gender identity.

        Just normal people. Not members of any extremist group. Just the guy who is selling groceries or the gal buying them. Most people on this world hate anyone who is different to them.

        White supremacists are not radical extremists in the West, they are the norm. They might be more nuanced than those who display overt bigotry but not by as much as they like to tell themselves.
