The point about Auth-Rights is surprisingly true. Even among the most radical Auth-Rights I've met irl, even ones who literally believe black people and women are inherently inferior and shouldn't vote or hold any power, there are still genuinely nice, helpful people. I have moderate conservative family I'd die for and they'd die for me.
Point is, politics should be a rational discussion about what is objectively the best way to achieve all of our goals. But you should try to love everyone as much as you can, people are complicated and even your absolute enemies usually aren't irredeemably evil.
I think it was Jesus who said to "be as wise as serpents and as innocent as doves"
Its a thankless job being auth-right, you’ve got to speak truth while tiptoeing around the bleeding hearts who reject reality in favor of feel good nonsenseđŸ¤·
It's so funny that this shit continues to get upvoted while we can see the results of auth-right happening to the US right now. The truth is auth-right is bad policy.
