Is a for of democracy, moron. |
Reposting this. Amen. |
You described liberal policy, not leftist. Don't conflate normal, liberal Democrats with leftist progressives. |
I am sorry, all of friends and colleagues refer to anyone to the left of them as "leftists" without distinction of Progressive or Liberal. So no, you don't get a pass on this. The GOP are the party of do nothing and know nothing. They took abortion rights away from women and will pay at the ballot box for every cycle until those rights are restored. |
That's how polarized the US has become. As a liberal, I used to agree with progressives on most things but over the past decade or so, they lost their minds on most topics and aren't actually liberal anymore. They are like religious fundamentalists in their beliefs because there's nothing you can say or do that will change their minds. |
If leftists hadn't tried to convince everyone that they don't really know what a woman is and that a man can get pregnant, RvW would probably still be intact. Leftists distract normal Dems from focusing on our bread and butter issues and that allows Republicans to get away with bs like overturning RvW. |
Yep. |
They are also a fringe of the democrat party, not the leadership and not the core, but they are important to have in the tent to ensure some level of voting parity with the GOP. The alternative, given the polarization, is GOP in control of all facets of our government, and given where Trump and the GOP are right now, I will take a little kowtowing to the progressives in exchange for not living in a Christo-Fascist state. YMMV. |
And here you are making my previous point. It is progressives who you are conflating with liberals. Progressives are a small minority of the "left" yet you want to paint all of us as "leftists" - sorry no, you don;t get to do that. |
"Leftist" progressives don't control the party. MAGA controls the GOP. Work from there. |
Once more! "Leftist" progressives don't control the party. MAGA controls the GOP. Work from there. |
| The Republican Party would not even exist without petty imaginary grievances. |
Ugh, talk bout petty grievances, that's the lefts staple! |
So tan suites and sleeveless dresses fall where in the spectrum, exactly? |
I forgot gaslighting. Thank you for reminding me. The Republican Party is built on imaginary petty grievances and gaslighting. |
