On its own it's not, but it definitely is in the current political and cultural context. There's no getting away from that. It's going to provoke a political reaction in any conservative and there's no point in pretending otherwise.
That's an indictment of Conservatism. What are they trying to Conserve and when was America great? Cause it was not great for folks of color or queer folk back then, and we wont go back.
I can and do agree with everything you argue while also maintaining the objectively obvious fact that context matters in politics.
