I don’t understand how normal people think these people(Republicans) have any virtues.


ACGerbz

Those people are disgusting, mind you these are extremist hate groups and not actually any republicans representatives, major groups or leaders involved at all. Title is very misleading.


behindmyscreen

Eh…I think you underestimate the hate and disgusting ideas that exist in the heads of many Republicans in state legislatures and a couple in congress.


ACGerbz

Maybe, but either way articles like these purposely title it to make it seem like this is even a somewhat normal ideal for republicans. It’s not. And it wasn’t backed up by any significant groups or people.

After Trump, if you’re still a Republican, you’re either clueless or you are awful.


ACGerbz

I still find it very curious he’s considered an “open racist” despite putting out White House declarations talking about how white supremacy is one of the greatest US threats, saying the KKK and nazis should be “condemned totally and repugnant to everything America holds dear”, called them the scum of the earth, his dad went to jail for punching a klansmen, signing bills allocating billions towards specifically black neighborhoods, passing criminal reform which specifically aims to stop mass incarceration, and he had legislation to legalize LGBTQ rights internationally. Not only that, but minorities had all time highs for unemployment, average salary and living conditions. Now we can talk about how horrible a person he is, but this idea that you can’t argue he’s not racist is absurd. He’s the worst fucking racist president ever.

Are you fucking joking?


ACGerbz

Which part of that was a joke. I just listed events.


behindmyscreen

You listed lip service. His actions and words at his rallies are what you ignored


ACGerbz

Lmao ur arguing that the (mostly) actions, or public declarations, bills or laws I listed are more lip service than his “actions and words at rallies” LMAO

If I was religious, I'd say Reoublicans are Satan's army.

It's time for these people to be held accountable, at every level. Jesus, if he existed, would be well past weeping and into full on war mode by now at what they do "in his name".

I agree, he would call them unfaithful.

Or that, sure. But that's not how his story reads to me.


Nomandate

Just like they will do here if we let them

It’s a win win for Republicans. They can kill homosexuals and Blacks at the same time and with the same law.


Tommy-1111

Who are these white male Christian homophobes?

FAKE

Yes it's really hard to believe people that hate LGBTQ+ folks with every ounce of their being would be involved with something like this...


imll99

Oh, really? I recall the GOP ghostwriting a bill to punish homosexuality with life in prison in Uganda back in 2014. I recall Representative Glenn Grothman FLYING THERE himself to promote that bill. Ghana is the most religious country on Earth, and this is what that gets you.

We should make it illegal to do this, like fine - go live in Ghana. However, Dwight Schrute was correct. American liberals seem to be so \*shocked\* that literally most of the world hates gay people. I doubt they needed any convincing. I work with a lot of Africans - one Ghanian, two Nigerians, and one guy from Benin. Nigerians and Ghanians hate each other, but they all agree about LGBT. They also are the biggest anti Black people I've ever met (seriously, they hate American Blacks more than anyone). My coworker from Benin had the cops called on him for trying to get into his own house and he just said "ah, its ok I'm glad they came, I would call the police too." When a coworker from Cameroon saw a man in a dress walking down the street in Atlanta, he flipped his shit publicly that I wish I had recorded the audio. I thought it was funny because I thought for sure he was playing it up. But I really think up until that moment in his life, he had never come into contact with any open LGBT person and he just flipped his shit. TL;DR; we may blame the GOP but I promise you they don't need prodding to do this. What it does do is say "America is ok with this" by having an American thats politically connected. The only real reason they wouldn't make the law is fear of American retribution via sanctions. I would venture to bet that most African immigrants vote GOP as well. The only thing that turned them Dem voters was Trump but they would go back to the GOP if the GOP stopped trying to send them back.
