Came here to say this! I had an ex say this to me more than 10 years ago and that’s when I realized that perhaps dating a conservative white dude might be extraordinarily toxic for me (duh).

Excuse me, why are we slandering poodles?

I think it’s the hat in the bio photo. I say this with care, but you look like an unc — specifically somebody’s uncle from the 90s. To be clear, that uncle was in his 30s then, but you’ve got that vibe now. It’s a good vibe! That dude is/was the best uncle! Always the first to start dancing.

I want to believe you, but originalists will 100% state something to the effect that Sec 1 of 14th amendment only applied to recently freed Black people. Sec 3 of the 14th amendment clearly says that no one can hold office if they took part in an insurrection, yet SCOTUS gave that man a pass.
