So... all these people standing up for Harrison Butker... are primarily saying he doesn't act the way he spoke, essentially... that they judge him by the content of his character; y'all are missing the point. He may act a certain way towards you, around you. But his words, when given a platform, reveal failings in his character. He may seem like the nicest guy in the world, but at heart: he's a backwards ass bigot. All this s**t is just enabling. Free speech, yadda yadda, wants people to do what he feels is right (and that, right there, is a much bigger problem -- when you're backwards ass moral issues impact other people -- and they do -- its not ok because you FEEL IT'S RIGHT); as an actual, moral, good human being it is your job to point out that his words (that you freely admit you don't agree with) are ACTUALLY dangerous and contribute to a culture that devalues people and leads to murder and su***de. Gee, Harrison, how does your god feel about that?
Travis, Patrick, Andy.... I don't you see you coming out for the things you say you "don't align with". All you are doing is defending him and enabling his s**t. If you "don't align" with those values say what you do align with. The only way to actually combat that s**t is to say the opposite, not by covering your ass and trying to shield your "friend".
