If they are they're sick, and foolish too, because this will actually amplify the conservative message

I don't think we gain anything from this. We already control all three branches of government, so any temporary boost in public opinion doesn't translate to an increase in political power. All we have is a dead friend. It's a reminder to set up an inheritance plan because this is the risk we take for saying anything out loud even if it's the majority opinion.

Until we know more about the shooter, this is a bit premature, but I would hope more and more rational people, even on the center left, realize that messages like
- If you don't acknowledge my pronouns you are denying my existence
- If you disagree with this/that policy, you are spreading hate
- If the oppressed act out in violence, it is the oppression that's to blame
- etc/etc
do not lead anywhere good and simply lead to the rationalization of violence. The sooner we can reject the language of oppressed/oppressor and harm/safety, especially when it comes to speech, the better.

Keep in mind the nazi party (the national socialists) perhaps responsible for among the greatest crimes against humanity of the 20th century...
Was a right wing party.
Today right wing "conservatives" (who are anything but) are spearheading protectionism, nativism, the scapegoating of immigrants, and the takeover of industries (nationalization) while ignoring the courts, undermining congress, running huge deficits, and making 'excuses' for inexcusable acts carried out by Putin, Xi, and others.
Conservatism used to stand for free trade, limited government, the free exchange of ideas, a strict interpretation of documents (like the constitution)... but those things don't apply anymore.
Somehow the US is losing its standing as the global power... and the response from Americans? To go down the same disastrous road as the Germans did in the 1930s.
@Solomonsatoshi is right - China won the trade war and the United States needs investment in its infrastructure and education to stay competitive... not more scapegoats.
It's not too late to 'get real' but we need better leadership from Americans.

imo, what people really don't get is that afaik, people don't necessarily have a problem with the pronouns, but the way they are forced upon them
I will go out of my way to use your pronouns out of respect, but respect is earned, not demanded
if you tell me I have to use them, else I am a bad bad person you can gfy to hell and see if we'll meet each other

Believe that man deemed the attacker was the wrong guy and was released; there is a manhunt on the way

I do want to flag we do not know for sure that's the shooter. There were two people arrested this one is the one people have been saying but police haven't confirmed. I only mention this because if that isn't we are ruining an innocent life

It was confirmed that that person is not the shooter, and that the real shooter is still at large.
