I\u2019ve had intense and very interesting conversations on the issue of abortion\/choice, for instance. Always respectful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile, what I have gotten from the Left, including friends and former colleagues has been: you\u2019re racist, anti-trans, fat-phobic, anti-everything,\u201d the author said. \u201cOh, and a liar and a grifter and a fascist \u2014 all because of open-schools advocacy, and thinking it\u2019s cruel and ineffective to mask toddlers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUltimately, I\u2019m willing to talk to almost anyone who is willing to discuss these issues \u2013 how children have been harmed and what we are going to do about it; the illiberalism taking over America\u2019s institutions \u2013 namely censorship and lack of due process; the general denial of reality, like how it was always obvious school closures and lockdowns were harmful,\u201d Sey added.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As for her politics now, Sey identifies as \u201cunaffiliated,\u201d a person who\u2019s \u201cin\u00a0favor of communication, compromise and common sense\u201d and \u201cfor individual rights and liberties.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll vote based on supporting kids\/families, and sanity,\u201d the former exec told The Daily Wire. \u201cLockdowns were insanity, and authoritarian. Talk about a threat to democracy.\u00a0It\u2019s governors assuming emergency powers and locking down citizens \u2013 telling us we can\u2019t leave our homes, while they do whatever they want \u2013 that scares me. And mayors mandating vaccines to participate in society.
