This thinking is a result of thinking that there is a simple political spectrum. There isn’t… Most voters are far too simple minded for voting that way. They vote for the other party when they are unhappy. That’s it. That’s all the decision making they need. They voted for Trump in 16 because they didn’t like the status quo (What simple working person is happy with the rich getting richer and the rest of us getting nothing but rising housing costs?). They voted for Biden in 20 because he wasn’t Trump and Trump really fucked up his time in the white house. Then they voted for Trump again because Biden didn’t change things.

The Democratic party can appeal to a lot more voters by abandoning a status quo that no longer serves the masses. There is a reason there were people who voted for Trump and AOC on the same ballot. They are people who are upset by the status quo and want change, even if that change is burning it all down and starting over.

We should give them change, because if we don’t, they will vote for change from the fascists.

There are too many of them for us to kill them all. We simply can’t kill 1/3 of the country… We have to find a way to build a society with most of the people who voted for Trump still being in it.

Now, for the ultramaga, proud boy types… I don’t hold back on solutions to the problems presented by that smaller population.

It’s always sad/funny to me that they are ok with forcing the bad parts of their faith on us via the government, but reject the good parts that most non theists would support

It’s worth noting that there used to be multiple .gov sites hosting information about this, but they are all dead links now.

Fuck this administration and anyone who thinks what’s happening is remotely ok.

I travel with one of these. It’s much better than not having one, but the one bolted to my toilet works much better
