“There are gay, lesbian and transgender children in Democratic, Republican and independent families, some who fear for their lives.”
- Budde
You know, I hear statements like this and I always ask the person who is making them “Well why don’t you stop filling their heads full of fear by lying to them? Why don’t you stop reinforcing that fear with your fake hysterical responses every time you hear Trump’s name?”
I have done this in the past, and the response is always angry, contains nothing of actual fact, and is worded in such a way as to win emotional support. My next sentence asks them to, without personally attacking me or deflecting, provide actual evidence of what they claim. They then either attack me anyway, or walk away, or both.
They know that their argument holds no validity... they just want their way and will say anything to get it.
