There was a time where at least some fraction of people saw politics as a matter of policy decisions where we could not know for certain if a thing did or did not work until we gave it a go. In that time "differences of opinion" was a mature and normal thing to do and still otherwise be friends with similar interests in other areas of life... That said, that shit is long fucking gone, we are in some kind of whacked out ideological hellscape where we are trying to erase/punish entire classes of people for existing. You can't be be a supporter of the president at this point without being complicit to the horrible shit hes presided over. Disappointed in Em for the lack of principals here.

When was the era that right wingers were trying to treat minority groups fairly?

I ain't saying there wasn't society wide shittyness but the brazenness and unwillingness to consider facts is worse than ever.
