With all due respect, I live in the Midwest and run with some rather blue-collar people in a completely blue, large city.

Everyone feels as though the Democrats have stopped listening to them and have been yelling at them for the last 10 years.

And just the mere fact that you are probably going to have the knee jerk reaction and call me an ignorant bigot is part of the problem.

Feel all they want, its not true not is what was being discussed actually even happening, but go off

Pre-defending yourself just shows you know you're full of it

There you go not listening again, even to the point of saying what people are experiencing isn't happening.

So let's say it's not happening. Why do so many people feel that way?

Say something valid, then. I also live in the middle of rural dipshitville so acting like I'm some elite is a swing and a miss

even to the point of saying what people are experiencing isn't happening

Just keep saying it's happening without proof, that'll make it true! Nobody is being called a bigot for not prefacing what they say with their pronouns, people are upset that the option is there at all for people to use because they're suuuuuper insecure

Why do so many people feel that way?

Grifters in the media telling them lies, pretty simple. Well that and gear of change and normal homophobia

You're right, and the majority is wrong. Enjoy the next election. Don't change a thing, you're perfect how you are.

You're right

It's cute that you think this is some sort of opinion issue. It's purely fact that what's been claimed as happening in this thread doesn't. Yet you keep pretending it does because you desperately want to be right.

the majority

Lol you idiots aren't even close to the majority on this specific opinion. Most people are capable of grasping basic English.

Enjoy the next election

Whatever you say, fascist! Keep spreading that sweet sweet misinformation
