Frankly, personal politics matter a great deal to me. I can't look away. I don't support people who advocate for policies that hurt and kill people (mostly women in this case). That cause tremendous suffering. I can't support such people in any way, even if their personal politics have nothing to do with their work or whatever event they plan. People can believe and support what they want, but they should not be free of consequences for such beliefs: exclusion and boycots. | ||

The abortion and homosexuality stuff seems to me mostly religious beliefs in the US tho (as far as i can see from the outside) so what you’re really saying here is that you support ostracising someone because of their private religious views? Isn’t there even something in the US constitution about that? If you want to change the constitution to support punishment for wrong belief, and don’t see how that could backfire on you, I’m not sure what anyone can tell you. Seems like an obvious slippery slope to me. While I disagree with those religious views personally, I strongly believe people should be able to hold whatever beliefs they want and shouldn’t be punished for them. Maybe I’m just too liberal in that regard tho. | ||
