Truth isn't determined by popular vote. Just because nobody likes it, doesn't mean it isn't true or that it isn't valid. They may also be downvoting because they don't like my tone, and not because I'm wrong. Besides, this is all just stupid infighting--OP's tonedeafness is shared by a broad group of left-leaning people and is splayed across the news media.

When it comes to convincing right-leaning people, their sentiment is doing legitimate harm to our movement. And at the end of the day, if people refuse to acknowledge my message because of my tone, they're the ones suffering. Conservatives really experience no downside by ignoring us, because they are happy to be classless, bigoted fools. So basically: suck it up and accept it, or continue to be ignored. Whatever.

But opinion is, and your argument is one of opinion, not facts.

And the prevailing opinion is that you're not worth listening to.

Lmao. So, you're saying that conservatives are onboard with the whole BLM/minority rights thing, and that people are getting their message across no biggie? Grow up.

Do you want a peer reviewed paper proving that conservatives don't agree with non-conservatives? Hilarious.

You're so worried about how people are talking and not what they are saying.

Do you really think right wingers really care about the politcs of respectability? They use manners as a cudgel, as you are. Seriously, you're playing their game and creating division by saying that using the so called improper emphasis is some how bad.

I mean way to go on the solidarity fucko.
