Sahara is saying not to date republicans, and not to let them trick you. I’m saying the same thing.
If you meet someone who, presumably like you, absolutely will not say anything until you do, then the both of you should write it down on a card and reveal them at the same time.
Or, you should say something about building a border wall. See if they bite.
Or, you should take them to see the Barbie movie. See if they shift in their chair too much.
Like, there are solutions to this problem, and I feel like you’re just not willing to see them.
As a corollary, imagine you’re gay in the 1960s. You can’t tell anyone you’re gay because you’ll get beaten in an alley. But, you would still like to find other gay people. How would you do this?
(so your suggestion of writing on cards is totally irrelevant)
No, not literally… Okay.
MotoAsh, you have to engage people in better faith.
“Make sure to not let them fool you” is a goal, “never tell them yours first” is just a strategy being offered to meet that goal. I understand the implications of this “poorly stated” version just fine: this isn’t programming, you can break the strategy’s rules sometimes. I trust people taking this advice to apply good judgement.
The only reason to argue with Sahara here in the way that you are is if you think they’re actually trying to trick people into being lonelier via some kind of yugioh trap card logic. Do you get the impression that they’re trying to trick people into being lonelier via yugioh trap card logic?
white isn’t a race it’s the social construct that means the absence of race
All “races” are social constructs, there are no biological races for our species and the way we define social races isn’t even uniform across different cultures.
means the absence of race
And that is actually a profoundly racist statement that roots many portions of white supremacist ideology.
why it’s literally impossible to be racist against white people
While it’s quite easy to argue that white people are in no danger of becoming ethnically prosecuted in most of western society, your statement that it’s impossible to be racist against white people is got a built in logic contradiction and is therefore invalid by nature. Even without the contradiction, all it takes to take down a blanket statement like that is finding a counter-example, and that’s so trivial I could find historical examples in less than five minutes.
Oh I hate to break it to you, many people of color are very conservative, and some are also maga supporters.
The real advice is don’t date people from known conservative places, go to liberal cities where you can at least know they are more-likely-than-not, to be at least left-of-center, and possibly a leftist.

You can sus people out other ways. The point is just to not let chameleons say whatever you said because they’re horny.

I mean, I don’t think it is.

Irish stopped being a race when they were accepted into whiteness by becoming police in large number
That’s why it’s literally impossible to be racist against white people
