      We finally have a term for what Tracey is, and it’s “TulsiBro”https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1085178216594198534 …

      Obama was from a secular household and still opposed gay marriage on theological grounds until he was 50+ years old. Tulsi Gabbard was from a religiously conservative household, with a domineering activist father, and reformed her beliefs by her late 20s. Who was more expedient?

      Replying to @mtracey

      Yes, I think that Obama’s regrettable adherence to the near-universal Dem party line (unconvincingly reversing his earlier endorsement of gay marriage from before entering national politics) is not the same thing as supporting conversion therapy at any point in one’s life.

      Didn't say it was "the same thing." I asked who displayed a greater degree of political expediency.

      The issue isn’t political expediency, the issue is having a background in a crank movement that drives queer people to suicide

      When evaluating the veracity of people's claimed moral shifts, you must consider whether they were motivated by expediency or a sincere desire to reform. So yes, it's one "issue" among many to take into account.

          I don’t believe Obama ever inflicted harm on LGBT people relative to the status quo. He claimed to be “evolving” (while, as I understand it, all but openly admitting this was bullshit to LGBT activists in private) while the country was rapidly evolving on this issue, per polls.

          Then, as the issue approached the Supreme Court, Obama came out strongly in favor, and it became the law of the land on his watch. It’s unfortunate he ever pretended not to be in favor but it’s not the same as conversion therapy, which actively harms vulnerable young people

          I’m probably going to vote for Bernie. If he doesn’t run I’ll vote for Warren. I don’t trust Kamala.

          I’m bisexual. There is a huge difference between what she supported and I think still believes. In her 2012 apology she still calls being gay a lifestyle. I don’t care about expediency. I care about how much she clearly hated gay people.

          Being at true believer in religious extremism is definitely worse than holding a nominal, relatively benign position.

          Tulsi and Obama’s statements weren’t similar? Obama’s were generic “marriage is between a man and a woman “ Tulsi in homophobic language. I don’t really get the question
