I don’t see how people who aren’t racist, sexist or transphobic could vote for conservatives when 75% of Republican campaigning (other than “guns and taxes!”) is focused on being racist, sexist and transphobic. People who aren’t any of those things are turned off by it and would not vote for republicans.

I agree, just wanna point out that this post doesn't specifically mention the US

While true I think, as long as you're not some kind of an extremist, your political views don't matter that much, unless you're in America. Most people have their opinions vary on the political spectrum, some views are conservative while others are liberal. But in America it seems like you're either 100% liberal or 100% conservative and anything inbetween is hated by both sides. So you have to know if they're with you or against you.

I don’t have experiences with politics in other countries, so it would be difficult for me to comment about that.
