minus-squarewewbull@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·6 months agoI think you’re learning the wrong lessons on a few of those. My alternative version of a few, which hopefully go further than what you said. • Opposing Racial and Cultural Equity Not treating all people as equal in the eyes of the law. • Revoking Women’s Bodily Autonomy Not respecting bodily autonomy in general. • Expanding Excessive Incarceration Embracing Prohibition which then imprisoned an underclass. • Exonerating Police Violence Arming the police as if it was a military unit. • Allowing Environmental Toxins The promotion of corporate structures over the wellbeing of the people. • Eradicating LGTBQ+ Rights Not holding human rights as a guiding principle. • Encouraging Religion in Government Not holding your own stated goals as a guiding principle (separation of church and state).
