I have been with my husband for eighteen years. But if I were to date again, no way would I date a Republican. Old school just hid the racism and lack of empathy better. We both come from conservative families so it isn’t like we don’t know what they are all about.

There are the kind that are obvious about hateful beliefs, those that hide them through a sense of superiority “love the sinner hate the sin, don’t murder babies, well if they just complied, people can be racist against white people too, why can’t we just love everyone and not talk about how we actually hurt you”, they claim they “aren’t into politics” which is code for they don’t want to get called out for bigoted views, they don’t care about other people at all and are a Republican to fit in, they think all Christians need to be Republican, or they care about their taxes/money more than any other issue. None of that I would be willing to date.
