A good question to ask oneself politically is 'what do I need to ignore in order to maintain my commitment to x, y, and z?' Because if you, for example, need to ignore a whole group of people's humanity in order to vote for a horrible politician, then it may be too costly to your soul.

There's a long history of overlap between radical anti-abortion activists and white supremacist domestic terrorists. Radical anti-abortion activism has often served as a gateway to white supremacist terrorism. It can serve as the canary in the coal mine, yet it's so often ignored. A thread:
