In my personal experience. Most people hold liberal beliefs when talking about people they directly know.
The trans person they know is fine. They are fine smoking pot. Their friend’s abortion was warranted. The immigrants they go to church with are lovely people.
If you ask even some of the worst MAGA idiots you know if their gay friend should be allowed to marry, they will agree more than you would expect.
Conservative media has created a barrier that allows them to hate groups in a way many would never do IRL.









God, wouldn’t that be nice.
Probably not that easy though.
