Why are republicans so gullible that they vote for tax increases on themselves, poorer education for themselves, less access to medicine for themselves, kill themselves with 1800's era diseases we actually have cures for, and inject bleach? (234)

If that's the way you're looking at it, then you have a tenuous grasp on what the republican party stands for, and what it has stood for since its inception. We voted for personal freedom, personal liberty, freedom from government, and a smaller government. I am happy to pay taxes, if it will bring jobs back here (in 3-5 years, and not instantly). I am happy to take the responsibility of educating my children, and not letting a government institution dictate what they learn. (-28)

Despite you saying that, I still consider you my brother or sister. And even if you disagree with me, I'd still back you up if you needed help. (-12)

But you didn't. We told you before the election, and you didn't back us up. Some of you mumbled something about egg prices or gas prices, some of you screamed in hysteria about all the evil of "illegal" immigration (by which you meant poor people from Central and South America regardless of status), some of you insisted that the genius business (with 6 bankruptcies) would bring prosperity for all, some of you pretended to give a darn about women's sports and said we needed to police genitalia in bathrooms to protect women as though getting attacked by Trans women in public restrooms is a thing.We told you Project 2025 would be implemented. We told you he thinks he's above the law and would ignore court orders and usurp Congressional power.We told you he'd put our foreign affairs im the potty, again, but worse.We told you he'd side with dictators and tell our allies to frick off.We told you he'd tank the market.We told you that he'd tax the poor and middle class and redistribute that...

We will never bridge the divide between humans and the right. The rights beliefs are too filthy and too evil at this point. If it was just about small government and lower taxes there would be no problem. But now we're in the realm of putting brown people in prison slave camps and deporting legal residents with no due process, refusing to listen to judges, persecuting political opponents, assisting The Zionist entity in occupied Palestine with their child murder and trying to destroy lgbt Americans. These aren't policy differences. These are differences in morals and values. Massive differences. We won't be associated with that filth. Those kind of things make you our enemy because that is objectively evil shit. Anytime you want to return to reality, start believing in science, stop trying to harm people as a way of life, and renounce the filth, then maybe we could find common ground. Until then, get fricked, hard, by a fricking cactusJust a little reminder for you, the most popular c... (1)

You said a lot of words. I respect your comment and response, but I disagree with some aspects. In my perception, your comments on the deficit are overshadowed by covid. Bidens deficits are largely related to Covid response funding dying down - here is a short excerpThe Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, a nonprofit public policy group, told PolitiFact that by their estimate, more than 80% of the reduction in the deficit under Biden can be explained by expiring or shrinking COVID-19 relief.You are not looking at proportional numbers in regard to the deportation statistics. Joe Biden deported 12k immigrants in early 2024, and Trump deported 11k immigrants in early 2025. At face value that looks easy - biden is better since he deported more. But Biden saw drastically more attempted crossings than Trump is seeing. If I shoot 50 free throws I will probably make less than someone who shoots 100. Below is an excerpt highlighting this disctinction - this is from NBC news, not Fox ... (1)

COVID is a fair point, and should be factored, but according to your data, Biden would have still lowered the deficit (although by a lot less) even without COVID. Trump raised the deficit even in his first 2 years, before COVID hit. It also follows with historical data. For the last 60 years, EVERY SINGLE Republican presidential term has led to a deficit INCREASE. In that same timeframe, every single Democratic presidential term has led to a deficit DECREASE. It is almost impossible for Republicans to lower the deficit, even if they cut spending, because they also greatly reduce revenue through tax breaks for the wealthy every time they are in office.Fair point. However, Trump made deportations the main focus of his campaign. He absolutely needs to deport a lot more than Biden to reach the numbers he laid out. My argument was more to point out that the border wasn't open under Biden, he still followed and enforced all the same immigration laws. And even if you can factually argue th... (1)

bc they cant fathom someone having a different belief than themselves and literally unable to consider an idea without actually accepting it. Its like they think sympathy and empathy are the same thing, and that if someone simpl tries to understand something its essentially the same as supporting it. Theyre so cognitively dissonant though that they cant accept what theyre doing bc to do so would also be to accept that theyre in the erongside of herstory and so they keep asking questions which they dont really want to hear the answer to.

What the last decade has taught me is a significant amount of people seem to lack a sense of self awareness and theory of mind. They can't comprehend being inquisitive about another person's goals, either you think exactly how they think or think the way they feel you think. They cannot comprehend that other ppl are concious and have their own equally complicated life that would lead them to see things differently.

i think identity politics are part to blame, it lead to people to change their framing of other's perspectives from "what does this other person believe", to "what should this person believe." Butt idk, im trying to pay less attention to it all and be a griller :marseygrilling2:

It's not that they can't comprehend it, it's that they refuse to accept it

Because they want to believe that they are good, and all their views are shaped by being good

This in turn means anyone with a different world view needs to be bad, and can be righteously treated as trash

If you accept that personal experience is a valid basis for one's beliefs then it's a whole can of worms

You then have to accept that you might be wrong about some things, and maybe you aren't always the good guy, and maybe they aren't always the bad guy, and maybe you're actually a bit of a shit human being sometimes

Oh they do. They just do it for the degenerates of their in-group.

i do not get this presentism. theory of mind might as well be a recent invention. i do not think slaves during the 1500s were even contemplating this. the fact we are able to argue about these concepts shows how far we are moving forward. you just see more of the lowest common denomination then you would 40 years ago.

These are real people. They really believe they're giving calm, honest rebuttals when they say "Repubs no longer exist, it's just MAGA now" and "you voted to die from curable 1700s diseases"

As usual none of them answer the question. They just argue semantics over their lefty bullshit.

Reminds me of that famous joke:

Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?"

He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?" He said, "A Christian." I said, "Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me, too! What franchise?" He said, "Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?" He said, "Northern Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?"

He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region." I said, "Me, too!"

"Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912." I said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over.

They just like to wave their hands and say "no true leftoid" like that makes a difference to the average person. To them, if you don't have wholesale blind faith in every corner of the furthest leftoid nonsense, you aren't a real one.

There's nothing a wingcuck hates more than someone who has 99% identical beliefs.

I can't remember where I read it but there's a midcentury communist who said something like "we can compromise/work with fascists, but with trotskyists? impossible."

I am applauding you right now 👏 Both of Americas parties sit on the right. I'm amazed how many Americans don't know what socialism could give them! But then I gather you are taught throughout school that alternatives to The American Way are wrong?
