Why do I have to choose between the radical left and the radical right?
What if I’m a male xenophobic racist who wants women to exist as sex toys to men and have no rights of their own and supports killing random civilians and children in other countries, especially when it grows in to genocide, but also wants a good life for the common male workers of the country, universal healthcare, and a sustainable climate?
I want that universal health care and education, I want more affordable homes and such, but I also want to see goon squads in the street beating brown people with batons as often as possible because it makes me laugh. Why can’t I have both?
Sadly if you just look at the last paragraph and replace the brown people bit with whoever a person feels justified to hate it seems like most people think something along these lines.
People who still buy Harry Potter books or merchandise? Republicans? People from cultures where homosexuality is considered wrong who honestly speak about their own views?
I think many of the loving tolerant folk of the internet would be thrilled with a world of universal health care, education, affordable homes, and seeing some or all of those people beaten in the streets.

i knew people in university who probably actually thought this way.

you can probably get 90% approval by having it be pedophiles getting beaten in the street, but society isn’t ready for that conversation
