Letter to the Editor: Asking for a Friend

Posted

Dear Editor

The liberal mindset is often questioned by conservatives. So, I have some questions for them.

1. Isn't birth control pro-choice?
2. Aren’t subsidies for corporations and farms the same as student loan debt relief?
3. Does “socialism” include getting paid NOT to grow crops?
4. Is filing for bankruptcy 6 times like Trump the same as loan forgiveness?
5. Isn’t taking away a parent’s right to choose their child’s books fundamentally anti-freedom?
6. Why are women’s bodies regulated and not men’s bodies?
7. After the 385th mass shooting this year in the U.S.A., how are thoughts and prayers enough?
8. Among the 5,000 Gods being worshipped worldwide whose is right?
9. How is J.D. Vance's idea to have grandparents babysit a serious policy solution to the childcare crises?

There are no right or wrong answers to these questions. We simply need to reconcile the hypocrisy in our answers.
