Assuming you know what a person's values are based on their vote is silly. Even worse, throwing racist/sexist/bigot at them.

Analogous to insisting all HRC voters did it in support of demeaning victims of sexual assault & leaving people to die in Libya.

People can be very uncharitable, yes. The decision to vote for either can be criticised tho without accusations of shaming.

When one hears daily that one's choice in an election is indicative of racism/sexism/bigotry, hiding seems a reasonable reaction

I'm not saying everyone should argue their case. I do but I don't mind conflict. Am called racist/sexist/bigoted daily.

Being called names as a response to one's express views is one thing. Being called it without/before being heard is another.

This is a different point, I think. I am not advocating calling anyone names.

I can assure you that every Trump supporter w/leftist friends has heard them talk of "trump voters" as some X-ist monolith.

I'm sure you're right. However, this is not what I am talking about or advocating.

BTW, I am not even a Trump voter (wouldn't matter if I were in California), but I see how his supporters are talked about.

OK, but I;m not doing this. I am talking about the right to criticise political ideas without being accused of shaming.
