It's really brutal how these issues have been so misrepresented, and how they've become 100% self fulfilling in so many people's minds. No matter what you say to this guy to try to convince him otherwise, he will be absolutely, completely convinced that the evil drag queens are out there actively indoctrinating toddlers to be trans and just straight up chop their dicks off at like 5 years old or whatever. Facts be damned.

Meanwhile they'll have no problem sending their children to an organization full of pedos, the church.

Not only that, but they haven't drawn universal condemnation from the right, despite repeatedly threatening violence. That goes beyond any politics of how you feel on these issues, the silence emboldens people to act on the rhetoric they're spreading. It's tacit support of terrorism.

Yes, the right plays to win. Sadly the Democrats seem to consider themselves above any behaviors that might be interpreted as wanting to really fight for anything.
