“Should a tolerant society tolerate intolerance? The answer is NO. It’s a paradox, but unlimited tolerance can lead to the extinction of tolerance.”
—Karl Popper

I feel that in the wake of the recent “let’s be civil” discussion, this is an important point to bring up again. You CANNOT be “civil” to people who actively want to harm you or take away your rights.

When our government is actively imposing travel bans on Muslims, deporting Mexicans, separating families and children, working towards enriching themselves while poor families and citizens live without clean water and food, ignore citizens who still don’t have power in Puerto Rico, and encourage sexism, racism, and bigotry at every turn… you cannot try to “reason” with them “civilly.”

There HAS to be CONSEQUENCES to their actions. And treating them with “respect” is not one of them. Every single member of the GOP is responsible for this mess we’re in, and they shouldn’t have a moments PEACE anymore. There is nothing more American than rising up against a corrupt and unjust government.

So if you vote for Trump or defend any of the current GOP policies or positions, you can kindly go f***k yourself.
