This preening moralizing is precisely the problem. When you tell people they are "white supremacist-coded" they simply do not care. You are like an evangelical Christian telling me that if I don't accept Jesus I will go to hell. I just...don't care. I'm not mad. If anything I feel bad for you; I look at you and wonder how someone could devote so much of their mental hardware to this. Your statements do not make me feel guilty and like I need to change my ways. I am trying to convey to you that I do not share your moral worldview, and that your moralizing is completely ineffective. If you think that makes me a bad person, and you don't want to associate with me, that's fine. I don't care, in the same way that I would not care if a devoted vegan decided that he could not associate with people who use animal products. Why would I want to associate with someone who thinks I'm a bad person?

Trump got a higher percentage of the Black vote than any Republican since Gerald Ford. He nearly won an outright majority of Latino voters. How did a white supremacist candidate manage to do that? False consciousness? Marc Maron: "Progressives have really got to figure out how to deal with this buzzkill problem. You do realize we annoyed the average American into fascism."

I...wasn't replying to you?

Anyway I wasn't trying to change anyone's mind. I'm just pointing out facts, not trying to make a conversion from what's obviously someone's religion.

Although I know that being politically correct is not in vogue at the moment, I do care and empathize, and try to be accommodating with my language.

What is the preferred way to refer to people who support the transition of the USA into a fascist christian ethnostate?
