Political opinions should be a protected class (certainly more than religious opinions).

I disagree since political opinions aren’t a well-defined class or even an idea. At least with religion you can restrict it to religion federally recognized by the IRS. With political opinions, literally every conceivable declarative statement could be considered a political opinion. It’s a degenerate case.

:) Political opinions are more well-defined? At least political opinions are in realm of reality.

We can’t even define reality, I would hesitate on that assertion;)
