Can’t you see that anyone who is friends with you must do the same thing each and every day? The majority of the world and almost half of Americans see you as a bigot. The fact that you don’t agree with conservative or Republican politics and policies is something we can all understand. But to loudly proclaiming that as a result we must hate women is bigoted. We do not. Many of us are women. Your assertion that we must hate brown people is bigoted. We do not. Many of us are brown. Your claim that we hate poor people is bigoted. We do not. Many of us are poor. Your suggestion that we’re ‘actively cruel’ to our fellow man is bigoted. We are not. Most of us are actively involved in the world around us — working to make it a better place for all mankind. Bigotry isn’t reserved for the racists — it is strong in you. You and the president may disagree on how best to lead this nation, but making up lies to voice your opposition won’t help your cause. The more you attempt to dehumanize us the more you dehumanize yourself. Spend more time arguing policies and less time calling us names…
