I understand why Biden needs to say this, but the hell we're not. https://twitter.com/melmason/status/1324097865686437904
You don't get to choose whether somebody is your enemy if they've decided they're going to harm you or those that are dear to you.

You just get to decide how you want to respond to that reality.
They aren't my enemies because I WANT enemies.

They are my enemies because THEY WANT TO HURT PEOPLE I LOVE.

And, maybe, eventually, me.

And: they are VERY persistent and energized and intentional.

The question is, how best to respond?
Anyway, I get why Biden needs to turn down the heat. I may have hoped he'd find different words, but I get it.

But let's not be fooled. We didn't choose this fight but it is the fight before us.
If these people aren’t my enemy, I am no friend to my LGBT family. https://twitter.com/ninatotenberg/status/1324131656744210436
These people are our enemies, by choice—their choice. https://twitter.com/salwangeorges/status/1324101336233889795
