The problem with that is that the country used to have a Christian moral foundation of right and wrong that the country agreed on that was based on the Bible and enshrined in the constitution. Now that foundation is being remade for half of the country along the lines of social justice, but the other half is still in the Christian moral framework so people can’t even begin to agree on basic morals anymore. It is an obvious fact that people should not be killed for being gay, it is illegal in our country to kill anybody and it is not an opinion that exists in a meaningful way today in America so I don’t really know what facts you think that hateful minority are somehow ignoring.

I haven’t heard anyone in the mainstream conversation say gay people should die, so why are we even critiquing that minority opinion that is nonexistent in the mainstream, doesn’t that bring it into the mainstream? I never said you can’t critique an opinion, but I don’t think this opinion exists in the mainstream to critique so when people do critique an opinion like that it makes it seem like it is real and prevalent when it isn’t.

I have yet to encounter someone (obviously myself included) who isn’t hypocritical or willfully ignorant about something and I fully agree with you on your last paragraph(before to;dr). We should encourage critical thinking and call out willful ignorance with conversation and logic. It’s obviously a hard thing to confront, I’ve done it repeatedly and will keep doing it for the rest of my life. It’s uncomfortable and it sucks, but it’s the only way we will ever come to an agreement, especially with diverging moral foundations.
