THREAD: It's worth noting that none of us knows how the 127,000 drive-thru voters actually voted. Harris County is extremely diverse, from urban to rural, old to young, white, black, and brown, Democrat, Republican, everything in between, and from all walks of life. 1/

There are undoubtedly tens of thousands of drive-thru votes for @realDonaldTrump, and tens of thousands of votes for @JoeBiden. And because we have one of the longest ballots in the country, tens of thousands of votes for each candidate in dozens of state and local races. 2/
I've talked to numerous candidates and elected officials on both sides of the aisle, and almost to a person, the candidates want the people to choose who wins their race. Plain and simple, the votes should be counted. 3/
Today, an all-Republican @SupremeCourt_TX dismissed a second legal challenge to drive-thru voting, making it clear that voters' voices should be heard despite some trying to make this a partisan issue. @HarrisVotes will continue to fight to protect your right to vote. 4/
But I'd like candidates to make their positions clear. So @realDonaldTrump @JoeBiden: Do you believe that the 127,000 votes cast at drive-thru voting centers in Harris County should be counted, or would you like to see them thrown out? 5/

This is partly what makes it impossible to have a constructive conversation nowadays. The stubborn refusal to accept that opposition to Trumpism and GOP nationalism is about more than simply holding different beliefs about things in and of itself. 👇


It's fine for people to hold different beliefs. But that doesn't mean all beliefs deserve equal treatment or tolerance and it doesn't mean intolerance of some beliefs makes a person intolerant of every belief which they don't share.

So if I said I don't think Trumpism deserves to be tolerated because it's just a fresh 21st century coat of cheap paint on a failed, dangerous 20th century ideology (fascism) that doesn't mean I'm intolerant of all beliefs with which I disagree. You'd think this would be obvious.

Another important facet. People who support fascist movements tend to give what they think are valid reasons for supporting them. That doesn't mean anyone is obliged to tolerate fascism or accept their proffered excuse.


Say you joined a neighborhood group that sets up community gardens and does roadside beautification projects. All good, right? Say one day you're having a meeting and you notice the President and exec board of this group are saying some bizarre things about certain neighbors.
