This isn't fascism. It's capitalism. The free market you love so much. You don't seem to love it when it doesn't work your way though.
The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to woman is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading. - Elizabeth Cady Stanton

Well yeah I guess it's like publicly visiting Harvey Weinstein, people would object, because Trump was also accused by 15 women for sexual harassment/rape. I mean sure conservatives like you who obviously don't have problem with that because they see that women should subdue to men like that, but you know it bothers some people that are not conservatives like that, so don't be so surprised.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

And then you would get eaten alive by the force of anti Obama. Conservatives boycotted Target for selling T shirts celebrating Obama's election victory.
