'No one's treading on you, sweetie." Where's the tyranny?

Where have the rights of any conservative, Evangelical, white, Christian person in the United States been "trampled on" by anyone from the far left? I can point to all kinds of examples where the rights and freedoms of LGBTQ persons have been trampled, and denied, and where they've been forced to accept choices that are not good for their own mental or physical health. I could point to hundreds of volumes written about discrimination against blacks, Latinos, Asians, Eastern Europeans, and just about any other ethnicity that exists in America, or against the practitioners of religious faiths or philosophies that are not Christian.

So if I'm going to be convinced that there is some kind of oppression against white, conservative, Evangelical Christians that justifies civil war and the destruction of the United States as we know it, I need to have that pointed out to me. If I'm to be subjected to violence beyond my control, then I should be informed of a legitimate cause for inciting it.

And I'll point out that I'm a white, male, past 50, raised in a conservative, Evangelical church (though I no longer claim that label), who, if all of these claims from the far right are true, should have experienced this oppressive trampling on my rights. I belong to the demographic that is supposed to have "suffered" the most. And frankly, I can't say I've ever noticed it at all.

That's because this is a deceptive, duplicitous, straw man argument.
