    “To suggest that I must divorce my husband over political or social views is not only unreasonable, it’s insulting to the many couples who hold different perspectives yet remain committed to each other,”

    Bruh??? I’m not insulted, as a vegan married to a butcher. I don’t think my sister, married to a man of a different religion, would be insulted. In fact, just about nobody I know who’s married would be offended at the idea that you should get a divorce if your spouse literally becomes a Nazi.
