DGAF About your extremism

[Qky75]

How about this weird idea:

I resent only getting two sides in current American politics. I resent being lumped in with either one extreme or the other. Not one of these people in power represent me, nor know me, nor give three fucks about "values' nor my survival. The only argument either side can come up with is "I'm not one of them!" We stand here completely polarized; moving nowhere while the world looks on embarrassed for us. The news is after ratings and thrives on our division. Yes, racism is still alive and well, nationalism is mistaken for patriotism, but by far, the single greatest blight in this country is ignorance and greed. Green is the favorite color of your leadership and right there behind them on either side is the blind willfully ignorant masses spewing stupid hatred, buying into the lies fed to them, and regurgitating divisive hate at each other; playing right into those in power.

I don't expect any positive reaction or to be taken seriously. I've just had it with the stupidity and bullshit slinging from all directions.

Either you vote for people to represent you or you don't.

Start local, regional. Work to get those people into the national stage.

It's not a short hike.

Your description of “the masses” - as if there is some amorphous group covered by that - as willfully ignorant seems to veer close to saying people are uninformed if they don’t agree with you
A close examination of either party’s platform shows a lot more detail than “the other side is evil”
Yes, the system needs reform - and I agree with the point about the importance of more people engaging locally
But people aren’t dumb for wanting to avoid making things worse as much as wanting to make things better

You are the first person to ever feel this way.

And the first to ever post it here.

Rock on, you trailblazer!

Anyone who believes in this is probably wilfully ignorant. If you don't like the Democrats or what they stand for, that is absolutely your right. But to say they're as extreme as the MAGAts is just plain absurd.

I expect BrightShinyGirl will be along shortly to tap her sign…

But until then…

We all see you for what you are: A false equivalence troll that is attempting to normalize Trump and MAGAt "republicans" as a viable political / governing option, while simultaneously denigrating the current competent Democratic leadership in government by suggesting that they should be considered in the same class as MAGAt "republicans", so..,

GTFOH

FOAD.

TIA

Politics is an extreme sport.

The Republicans are awful, and most conservatives know it. They avoid confronting that reality by pretending the Democrats are just as bad.

Both parties are awful, just in their own way. Or you think that Raytheon helps out Dems out of the kindness of its own heart?

Tell me what you think is awful about Republicans without mentioning the Democrats.

 

[Lazaran]

No.

No matter how many times SevMin0 or one of their alts says it.

No.

Trump and the MAGAt "republicans" are soooooo much worse.

Full stop.

 

[LLCox]

Tell me what you think is awful about Republicans without mentioning the Democrats.

ah, the old redirect. Both Parties suck a big dick just in different ways.

 

[RoryN]

ah, the old redirect. Both Parties suck a big dick just in different ways.

Tell us what you think is awful about Republicans without mentioning the Democrats.

You lied from the jump. There were no ideas, not even a weird one.

Question for ya... how did you feel about Roe?

 

[LLCox]

Ah, the old, "I'm too pussy to make choices."

But I have and you are lucky. Oh, and kiss my ass

Seriously! Her dog don’t hunt.

 

[BrightShinyGirl]

Seriously! Her dog don’t hunt.

You can’t bring yourself to criticize the Republicans for anything.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Absolute bullshit. Once again, you have not done your research. I find that to be quite typical for you. When you can see your way clear to stopping your lies, engage me in conversation sometime. Until then, shut the fuck up and go have another big slug of Kool-Aid.

 

[RoryN]

shut the fuck up

^^^^^vvvvv

I resent that vanilla is the default flavor in ice cream. It should be nutmeg.
