William B Travis on Nostr: I am serious that you don't define your terms. I love my gay sister, brother-in-law ...
I am serious that you don't define your terms. I love my gay sister, brother-in-law and niece very much, but I also believe marriage is a sacrament of the church to which they willingly don't belong.
Just because I don't want military age men flooding the Texas border where my family lives doesn't mean I'm a racist.
I would suggest by not being specific about what you mean, you're not serious about conversation.
The question I posed in the above note is a real one that gets to the heart of what it means to be a racist. Is it defined in terms of some generalized hegemonic oppression, a particular agenda, or does the word actually mean something?
