The Rude Pundit: Your Stupid Fight About Who's a Better Democrat Is Stupid

[Muneraven]

61. It Isn't a Simple Problem

1. There is a difference between being a one-issue voter and having a broad, basic support for all human rights that you don't feel should ever be compromised.
2. While the Democratic Party is light years better than Republicans, there is still a lot of misogyny floating around in liberal circles and women should not be pressured to tolerate restrictions on their own bodies just to be anti-Trump.
3. I didn't much like Hilary but I voted for her despite being unfriended, mocked, and attacked for supporting Sanders. But I came as close to leaving the Dems as I ever have in over thirty years of voting because of the vitriol. We can argue the issues without hating one-another. We can disagree without name-calling. If you want to curb division, curb the personal attacks and nastiness. People who don't have the exact same beliefs can live in the same tent, but not if they are hurling insults at one-another.
