"My parents are bigots."
Did your parents vote for Republicans? If they did, then they are bigots.
But a lot of people don't want to say those words aloud.
"My parents are Nazis."
Ooof. We really don't want to say that, do we? But... Have you noticed that the Republican Agenda is almost a word for word copy of the Nazi agenda?
Do some math on this. How many parents have voted Republican? Okay, now, how many of those parents' children get weird about saying, "My parents are bigots. My parents are Nazis?"
It's not about you and your parents. It's about the system of emotional manipulation that makes sure you, and everybody like you who has bigots for parents, provides a first line of defense for them and allows them to maintain the belief that what they are is okay.
It is not okay. Don't protect your bigoted parents. Don't protect Nazis. No matter who they are.
