Today, just as it is every day, is a good day to affirm our support for LGBTQ persons. (Hereโ€™s a thread of my thoughts. I have a small circle so Iโ€™m not sure who might read, but if you do, I appreciate it.) 1/11

@Ameen_HGA One thing I think we see a lot of these days and will increasingly see is the double-standard of lambasting pro-life Christians who support Democrats (eg Liz Cheney) while giving a free pass to Republicans to support legal abortion. It's all politics, no substance for them now.

@mattnightingale I'm always amazed at the grace I see from people like you. I'm a straight, white, Christian, former Republican guy, and even I have a hard time not wanting to pull the plug on certain relationships. (I do take into account past and current closeness and how obnoxious they are.)

@stewartdantec Itโ€™s hard to think of a Sunday when the witness of the American Church (at least among white Evangelicals) has ever been weaker

@PastorTrey05 Iโ€™m former GOP and still not super progressive, and I absolutely love Harris and how she welcomed in people like me. To say Iโ€™m depressed right now isโ€ฆtotally accurate. Sheโ€™s really not far left, and for people who believe in decency and rule of law, she was the obvious choice.

@matttebbe One should be able to count ballots and compare to reported results. One could do a random sample of precincts just to see if thereโ€™s a pattern. If there is, more investigation would be appropriate. If they line up, it probably sadly means the votes were counted correctly. 2/2

@SamObiWon MAGA thrives on the idea life is a zero-sum game. If a voter gets a sense that some policy would benefit (harm) a group they arenโ€™t a part of, they have become conditioned to believe that would be to their harm (benefit). Life isnโ€™t a zero-sum game, but they treat it like it is.

@crosby_katie Itโ€™s a struggle. I spent the last two days working from home when normally Iโ€™d go in. I donโ€™t care to listen to any postmortem election podcasts or news. I listen to music and even then Iโ€™m very selective in what I want to listen to.๐Ÿ˜ž

@_nomadic_soul This is extremely disappointing and yet I know we white guys are even worse. Definitely pissed about it on so many levels.

@WintersPolitics But Iโ€™m definitely super worried for trans community. I definitely think we (and Iโ€™m very much thinking of myself here) need to do a much better job sticking up for the trans community.

@martensmatt1 Just as a Navy vet, I know Iโ€™d have hell to pay if I touch highly classified documents and kept them in my bathroom. I would have been rightly court martialed.

@hoopersnook @JesterWootton Iโ€™m just glad I have a church that is different than all this. Not that itโ€™s perfect. Certainly Iโ€™m not. But Iโ€™ve never felt more disconnected from American Christianity in general. I totally understand anyone leaving it. I probably would myself were I in lots of peopleโ€™s shoes.
