One of the most American sentiments is this: Live and let live.
Stay out of others’ personal lives.
That’s what’s fueling this “MAGA Republicans are weirdos” vibe. It’s not just fucking weird but *wrong* that they are so concerned with how others, including every woman, chooses to live their own lives.
It rubs most Americans wrong. It’s not a liberal/conservative thing. It’s an American thing.
I think it’s a human thing too — and America should exemplify that aspect of humanity.
