No, it isn’t a non sequitor because it is the exact same thought process. To put it bluntly, it is “the intolerant left” stupidity.

Empathy is a two way street. When one side has decided the other side doesn’t deserve to exist? Sure, let’s meet in the middle! You maybe burn a few less crosses and you can just breathe 4 days out of the week. Isn’t the middle great?!?

And same thing there. One side has decided they are perfectly okay invading one of our oldest allies and stomping on the necks of protesters if it means they get to “see the world” and get a paycheck. There is no fucking middle ground there.

if you manage to break even one child out of the cycle of abuse and prevent a new ss member from being created, you will have done the world a great service.

And you do that by making it damned clear that it is a “with us or against us” mindset. Either side with The People or oppress them.

So yeah. If that makes me part of the intolerant left because I refuse to entertain this shit? Oh no, your blessed god might disapprove of me! Because this isn’t even “Hey, wouldn’t it be cool if we invited a cheney to the DNC?”. This is very much “okay. Let’s meet in the middle. We’ll have civil rights every other day and we can just invade part of Canada. Nobody likes Quebec anyway”
