If you imagine (fantasize, really) about a pragmatic person with liberal ideas, what party would they join? I think Democrat. I just don’t want to classify all those people as evil.
Clearly we disagree on somethings but the important things are:
That’s a fair point, and I accept your argument. Honestly, I’ll think on it more.
My point isn't so much about the party they should 'join'. I know we are having this conversation in the context of a country that largely aware of the different parties and broadly what they feel about them. Be seeing as this a time of necessary reflection for the democratic party, and in turn reflection for their base, I think it's worth looking harshly at what they really were before the currently administration. That a party that was offered as pro-worker, anti-war, pro-immigration, pro-trans issues, has become a party of, 'strike breaking', 'most lethal military', 'tough on illegals', and 'following the law'.
I think it's valid to classify many in the party as evil because they are either doing evil or capitulating to it, and we need to have a conversation about how much about them needs to change.
Fair enough.
Full disclosure: I’m not American.
Good to know, I am sorry our politics are such a fucking problem for everyone!
Hopefully, us rational people will get through this! Hope you have a nice day!
You as well!
