Conservatives are lock-stepped into the “old ways” – and we see whenever they try to stage a seige that their ways mainly bring repression and/or violence.

But it must be a Law of Common Decency and Understanding that violence, hate crimes, and subjugated segregation are not acceptable dictates – for any reason.
Abuse cannot be allowed to be a law unto itself, and victims and casualties of such injustices deserve their Human Rights.
Alternative Communities have important insights and creative innovation to gift us with – if we bigots would just get out of their way.
