    I will not tolerate a religious fool or some other kind nutbar deciding they don’t have to deliver my mail because is offends them.

    Good, we should not tolerate intolerance.

    As a result of that position I will not tolerate some morally justified person from doing the same no matter the reason.

    This has nothing to do with morality. This is a strategic decision to defend life and liberty. We should defend ourselves and not be complicit in our own destruction.

    Fire anyone who can’t do their job and leave their opinions at home.

    Facts aren’t opinions. We know gender affirming care is a collection of lifesaving medical treatments. A ban on gender affirming care would deny trans people the fundamental right to exist. Abortion is a lifesaving medical treatment. Bans on abortion denies people reproductive freedom.

    We should not fire people who stand up to fascists. This November 5th, in the US, we will decide if we continue to be a democracy or will allow fascists to replace our democracy with a christo-fascist dictatorship. We should want people in positions of leadership and power to say no to fascists who attempt to subvert our democracy for their own ends.
