When is it no longer opinion but fact?
I got into a debate with a girl I went to school with today online… Opinion is relative, and most of my statements are indeed fact, not personal opinion. It’s not my opinion it’s raining when I’m standing in a downpour. It’s fact. I literally don’t have the time to fact check you on everything you said. There are so many things inaccurate with what you just said (also fact). But let’s give this a go, cause I’d hate to just leave you uninformed so heres just the short list.
You can claim Trump isn’t racist, but his words and statements are often racist, not sure how you draw the line between racists words from one person repeatedly, and them being a racist. Fact: (http://www.realtruenews.org/single-post/2016/08/18/FACT-CHECK-Is-Trump-Racist) There were literally so many videos, websites, polls, and references I couldn’t decide, I liked this one because it also provided links to other sources. Look them up for yourself. In terms of “groping a woman” you literally just defended by saying it was 10 years ago. So… he’s 70 years old, it’s okay for a 60 year old man to grab or kiss a woman without her consent? Here’s the video, his own words for a refresher: (http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/video/trump-brags-groping-women-vulgar-remarks-caught-tape-42662787) and these aren’t just words, these are him talking about his behavior, things he actually did. “I just kiss. I don’t even wait… Grab them by the pussy.” And of course, never to disappoint there is many more gross, lewd and mean comments about women both audio/video as well as tweets from him, not the media. Your response for this behavior is it “is minimal to some of the stuff I have heard from men,” so because you’ve heard meaner, grosser, and greater level of inappropriate comments these are excusable? I don’t condone any unwanted, cruel or malicious comments. That’s harassment, and is not okay, no matter how high a level of inappropriate. Christine, we’re not talking about the Clintons, we’re talking about Trump (and don’t bring them into this because you assume I support the clintons), and if we’re talking about rape, lets see, didn’t Trump get accused of the rape of a 13 year old girl? Yes he did (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-rape-case_us_581a31a5e4b0c43e6c1d9834) and she is still suing him. No, I don’t support victim blaming (reference my statement earlier of not condoning mean comments) but we’re not talking about simply talking badly about them, we’re talking about, again, condoning, accepting or making excuses for the behavior of a person who is actually accused of doing them, that you yourself support. Moving right along, you brought up one of my favorite topics, “His win was a landslide, if all these people felt so strongly against Trump, why did they not vote and let their voices be heard? That’s a way to get your voice heard, to exercise your right to vote.” We did, the nation did, the American people did speak, and they didn’t pick Trump (http://www.nytimes.com/elections/results/president). Here, I did the math, just incase you didn’t want to.That is 2,864,974 MORE people for the other candidate, thats 2,864,974 more than Donald Trump. That is almost 3 million people more, and I didn’t even include the votes for other parties, thats even MORE people who didn’t pick him. They, we the people did speak. The electoral college won him the office, not the people. Do you know how the electoral college works? You seem to be confused on the voting numbers and how he actually got into office. Now, conservatives love to speak down about protestors and damage. I don’t like the damage either, if I’m being honest. I’m much more peaceful, but sometimes it just has to happen, you know how this country was started, you know how the progress of this nation has leaped forward? By literally fighting and tearing down the power’s hold on things.The Boston tea party- guess what Britain, we’re not standing for your shit anymore. Which lead to a war, because Americans were tired of being oppressed by the royal regime. The Civil war, was fought over many things but is often attributed to the end of slavery. Which then lead, through a number of instances to the many movements throughout time, the women movement, the civil rights movement, the sexual revolution and most recently the gay rights and equal rights movement. And here were are again. And you know what all these things have in common, besides wanting equality and freedom? Some shit just had to get broken. And, since you’re so keen on lacking proper information about your chosen leader, let me help you out again, Trump supporters have been involved with violence (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/anti-muslim-hate-trump-supporters_us_57fbcd79e4b0e655eab66379) and here’s a video, there’s actually lots (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC0eRPIsBbQ) now I’m not saying the opposite hasn’t happened, because I know it has, there’s video of those too. But not many support it like Trump does here he is with his own words again, “Knock the crap out of them… I promise you I will pay for the legal fees.” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzYv5foyAS8) Where is that mending bridges and mending the divide, Christine? Where? And this train just keeps plugging along, we now reach Obamacare, which is actually the affordable care act, and I don’t know your personal body issues, I don’t know your health, your doctor, your income or the plan you selected and/or were eligible. There are so many variables, I can’t make comment and again I’m not sure what part you played in getting to that number. But I rather have some then none, and I know many of my friends would, again not opinion, fact. They need their meds to live. Fact. They needed that doctor visit, to check on their baby. Fact. They needed that cancer screening. Fact. So you can opinion all you like with people’s lives, I can’t. I’m worried about more than myself… The march, Trump doesn’t agree with the march? I wonder why that is? Who actually opposes equality? Who opposes your right to chose? And I mean for anything not just sexual health and concerns, I mean for all aspects of your body. And the march, literally the largest march, gathering, protest (whatever you’d like to call it) in our country’s history and possibly the world, because the world literally also stood with us. The number is still coming in but over 3 million people in the United States alone rallied yesterday in the name of women, equality and love. There were no arrest, no vandalism, it was possibly the most peaceful and largest human gathering of protest on Earth, in history. And if that alone, isn’t a little scary that the election of the man you support literally brought the world together in such an event is staggering. And don’t for one second try to give him claim that he did that, he gets to play his part because the world is afraid of him in this powerful position of president…. “I was offended by certain things bill Clinton did but did I burn buildings or lash out at others for it?” No, I don’t think you did because you were between the ages of what, 5 and 13? I don’t think either of the Clintons are perfect, and I am fully aware of their faults (again don’t assume I’m their fan, let alone leader of their fan club, I’m not)… “I have been judged, bullied, lost friends and family all because I have a different opinion than others.” There is a big difference between being being called out on/made fun/bullied based off opinion than that of your very being. You ever stop and wonder why they distanced themselves from you? Could it be because the person you support (Trump) makes them (your friends and family) feel unsupported so by default (since you support him) you must not support them? And it is true, you can’t okay your friends and family, say you support them and then condemn their friends, partners and relations to the whims of everyone else by the simple fact of, “well, I don’t know them.” Because in someone else’s house, your friend/relative/loved one is the person they don’t know. I am gay, thats never been a secret. That’s not a choice, that’s not an option. It’s a FACT. There are other species on this planet with homosexuality in them, 1,500 roughly, humans too. It’s not my opinion, it’s FACT. It’s often religious, and (claimed to be) moral questioners that deny and fight that. There is a difference between someone bothered you liking oranges over someone not liking your very existence. Something tells me you weren’t told you deserved to be murdered, beaten up, to go to hell for you having the audacity for showing up to school that day. And for years, not just a conversation, not just a small group. Years. Years of people who know nothing about me except I happen to like dudes saying the most heinous, vile and hateful things because I exist. Not because I like oranges, not because I voted for a certain candidate, because I just want to be left alone and be equal. Because I want to just go about my day un-assaulted. No one makes laws, religious bible print outs, laws, bills, propositions and the like that limit, deny or strip the rights away for you to like Trump or to like baked goods. Fact, 28 states are fighting over anti-LGBTQ legislation over 200 bills are being proposed to deny rights and various other forms of protections and equality, and thats just in the past two years, lets not speculate on the future and I can’t even tell you how many laws have come and gone in the past (http://www.hrc.org/blog/anti-lgbt-bills-introduced-in-28-states). Now tell me one law that restricts your right to like Trump, or not even Trump, anything else, over your beliefs and feelings. So lets clarify again once more, these aren’t feelings I speak but facts. I know the cause and effect, I know the cost and not only to myself but to the people of this country and to the world. America doesn’t need to be great again, America is great. I know I’m part of the solution, I know I’m part of the inclusion, while your leader divides, I’m over here fighting for women, gays, trans, people of color of all nationalities and countries all around the world for their chance, their rights and their equality. I march with my brothers and sisters, I will march today, tomorrow and the next. I will protests, I will speak out because that is America. We are built of discourse and disobedience, we’re also built of every race, creed, color, religion and orientation. And I wont thumbs up someone who questions that.
