(Read whole thread): My deepest concerns with a Biden presidency have nothing to do with taxes or the economy or environment or whatever, even though I have my disagreements there.

My concerns are 1) taxpayer funded abortion, 2) the Equality Act, 3) religious freedom.
1) You will never catch me supporting taxpayer funded abortion. I already have issues with government subsidies of PP because I think we effectively *do* fund abortion in all senses.

Regardless, I have moral issues with this.
2) Equality Act. I& #39;m from Massachusetts and have seen laws like this shut down Catholic charities and adoption centers because they would not allow same sex couples to adopt. I& #39;m also concerned with govt forcing parents to have their child transition. Above 18, I don& #39;t care.
2 cont.) But below 18, I do for many scientific as well as moral reasons. I do not think that parents should be compelled to choose between custody of their child and having their child transition. I just don& #39;t.
My opposition to a Biden presidency is entirely personal. I take my pro-life views and religious freedom very seriously. I am willing to sacrifice on a lot of views, but not those.

But there& #39;s another element to this.
Outside of when I have said stupid stuff (that& #39;s def happened), I have experienced threats of violence, stalking, and many other unpalatable things for my views on abortion and religious freedom.

I don& #39;t think most liberals are like or even most progressives, but some are.
I think a Biden-Harris presidency emboldens this sector.

For all the "oh it was just Trump, being a conservative is fine" that has been said, I have seen a lot more calls to deplatform and unfriend conservatives. And I have experienced a lot more than that.
Look, if Biden wins (after recounts and such) and the integrity of the election pans out, I won& #39;t riot (lol obviously) or develop BDS or unfriend my liberal friends or try to deplatform them.

But I do take this election seriously.
In a lot of ways, Biden-Harris and a more progressive agenda in Harris especially is an attack on my values, morality, and dearest held beliefs directly and I& #39;m not thrilled about that.

I& #39;m just not. Like many of you might not have been thrilled about Trump.
I see leftism (not liberalism) as diametrically and philosophically opposed to my beliefs, values, and to the Constitution. Biden isn& #39;t a leftist, but Harris is.

And I see this election as emboldening that sector.
I support unity. But I don& #39;t think unity is always possible with those who wish to destroy all the values you have.

Calls to unity are important. But the calls can& #39;t be empty and have to be conditional upon our agreement of certain values and moral principles.
If you want to convince that Biden-Harris is fantastic, I would prefer you try to do it in the DMs. I will pray for my leaders, I will obey the law as prophets and apostles have instructed me to do, but I will also continue to stand up for what is right.
