      This is objectively false. One party deals entirely in culture warfare with no idea how to govern. The other at least tries to interface with real world problems.

      All this “we” shit smacks entirely too much of cis het white middle class privelage

          @Zorque @chloyster @hallettj @downpunxx But is it? Why must we vote for evil in degrees every time? Why can’t we say “let’s look into these perceptions without having to agree with them wholesale?” Why are we killing and dying for ideas?
          We’re more than just pawns on this socio/economic/political chessboard. But who am I to demand that things be any different. What am I even contributing?

          Caring for the people? Sounds like woke radical leftist Marxist propaganda (actual shit I hear on a daily basis).

          The Republican party could stop trying to hurt people at any moment. Hell, I’m in a red state and our last Republican governor wasn’t too bad. But it’s all just hate now. And anyone who opposes that hate gets more hate from people like you.

      The Republican party can stop denying women the right to control their bodies, stop denying science, stop censoring history, and stop othering anyone but Christian Cis Het White people any time they feel like it.

      But they won’t, because that’s their entire political identity. I ought to know; I was one of them for 20 some odd years.

        @CylustheVirus No, that isn’t their entire history. I’m sorry you’ve been convinced by corporate and blasphemous malcontents within the economical and religious underbelly of the many American cults within.

          Their history matters exactly zero compared to what they are doing now. Knowing that Republicans used to be the less shitty party but then it switched is academic.
