If ever there were a post confirming that the Democratic Party runs on identity politics, it is this one. Just Hilarious.


Couldn't Dems say the same about Republicans?


Imagine all the time spent on this study…just take a minute and contemplate. Seriously. A bit unhinged, no?

One of the dumbest things you can do today is let something as silly as politics interfere with the important things in your life like family and friendships. Yet I see supposedly ‘smart’ people let this happen all the time. Not so smart after all.

Yes, it's the Dem party that is dictating what women can or can't do with their bodies, who people are allowed to love and/or marry, and trying to impose their religious beliefs in as many spheres of public life as they can in a secular country.


I seem to remember democrats ordering certain people to get vaccinations or face penalties such as losing their jobs. OTOH, they welcomed illegal aliens at the southern border in with no tests or vaccinations required.


Only federal employees/contractors including the military, were required to get vaccinated. Anyone else had the option for testing. Stop making things up.


Incoming Freshman at Harvard are still required to have all COVID vaccines and boosters. #science #indoctrination


It is a choice to go to Harvard, not a mandate. A private entity can create whatever rules they want.

When someone's politics suggest that people like me have lessor rights, then that is going to impact my view and relationship with them. This isn't hard.

Then Harvard should not be accepting any federal aid whatsoever. Nor should any student debt gotten at Harvard be forgiven, ever.

This is hilarious. That’s why voters are repudiating progressivism? Ask Oregon lawmakers who just recriminalized drug possession if their previously progressive stance had really been a win win for the people in the state. The resulting surge in overdose deaths was far from win win.

Exactly. “My body my choice” ended in COVID with the dictatorial actions of the left.

Private companies, private schools are not the government mandating it. Do you see the difference?

And public schools have mandated vaccines for decades. It is the way to mitigate the impact of disease, in case you were not aware.

If you want to pass a law to that effect, go for it. Most educated people understand why vaccines are important to the social welfare of the people who live in a place.

Then the people who want to deny me my equal rights should evolve their worldview. I am doing just fine and am hardly alone.

LOL. The tell here is your use of the "Democrat" epithet. You learned that from your GOP talking points, going strong since the 1950s. It's not a flattering take, but a revealing one on your adherence to a party and an ideology.


+1, this is rich coming from the Lost Cause Dixiecrats that were the true fascists and authoritarians of the 19th and early 20th Century. That's what the MAGAs represent. Heck, with the Arizona ruling, they're even returning to Civil War era laws.


It's absurd to apply that description to 70 million voters who voted for Trump.
