Every last one of them that I have spoken to hates some group of people so much that the things he said were acceptable to them.
I'm related to a frightening number of these people and every one of them nauseates me. I can barely speak to them now that their masks have been removed and I see them for what they really are.
My in-laws hate blacks, gays, Muslims. My brothers hate blacks, Hispanics, Asians, gays, liberals, and college educated people. Oh, and uppity feminist bitches. My sisters in law agree with the brothers. They all adore Mango Mussolini. They also all state that he is a man of god, that he has been chosen by their scary, racist god to rule the world.
I'm also surrounded by them in my town. Similar views abound.
I get that they are human, but I don't have to interact with them beyond basic civility. They are not reachable. They are incapable of change.
