Comment on Tough Love: Do I Sever Ties with My Anti-Vax Brother?
Lovstuhagen@hilariouschaos.com 1 month agoAre you a conservative? If not… “Would you disown your brother for going trans because science beats identity politics?”
But really, my whole thing is… why disown anyone over their politics?

Because politics isn’t some imaginary concept, it has real world applications.
Trans people have nothing to do with conservatives, that’s some weird Anlgo thing.

So you are saying that culture war issues are not really a conservative thing… Because in your country trans people are just a fully normal, integrated part of mainstream politics, or…?

I’m saying we have real issues to focus on. Only a weird person would spend their time and energy caring about what’s in peoples pants.

It’s not about individuals, but about the public consensus around basic social norms…
Which falls into both liberal/conservative camps.
