You are right, Amy. I apologize for my naive, condescending, and embarrassingly verbose response. I do not know anything about you or your life. And you don’t know anything about mine. And I judged you based on my generalization of people who generalize white liberals. The whole thing has become this pitched and personal battle for the moral high ground. Stupid. Bottom line is, I think Trump is a demagogue and dangerous for our country. I don’t hate Trump supporters, but I don’t understand them. I do hate racism, greed, and arrogance…all three of which I have been guilty at one time or another in my life. I hate being told what I can or cannot do with my body, especially by men, and I hate being shamed for being anything but evangelically Christian. Finally, I hate being lied to as if I’m not smart enough to remember what was said five minutes ago or yesterday or when the other party had control of the government. I appreciate your bringing to my attention the arrogance and condescension in my response. I will (hopefully) pay more attention next time.
