Rs are terminally out of touch with normal people

[Anonymous]

NP. Both Republicans and Democrats have issues where they are wildly out of touch with common sentiment. It is something that cuts across party lines.

Glenn Greenwald (I know, I know) recently did a thread about the same concept with respect to the media.

Because planned parenthood is the only abortion provider in many areas.

I’m sure they continue to provide birth control, but that isn’t currently the thing under attack.

Don’t worry though - that’s next

You're out of touch if you think that people aren't familiar with Dylan Mulvaney.

Never heard this person's name until the right started being appalled. Like will so much they are outraged about, the whole Bud Light thing was the first time I had heard that name. The conservative right gave that trans person a whole lot of publicity, that's for sure.

I have to say, there's a lot I hate about Republicans - and their scary, apocalyptic "promises" about what's coming is up there at the top of what I hate most. But it's a big top. Very top-heavy.

Isn't it the Democrats who have been talking about their apocalyptic "promises" concerning climate change? Al Gore said many of the world's coastal cities would be inundated by sea level rise by 2023. Of course, he said that while owing a Tennessee mansion with three people living in it that consumed more power than a small town. Liberal hypocrite.

yes and humans did a lot in the intervening 30 years to help mitigate so instead of 2023 it is now more like 2050, but there is still more to do to try to prepare while also mitigating. Thanks for making the point that we CAN do something about it.

Also in one case we're trying to avoid the catastrophic existential threat - climate change

While in the other, the Rs are positively giddy about a dictator. They know that saying this stuff is creepy, weird, and sort of scary to normies - but those R weirdos love it, themselves.

I guess they love the threat of climate change, too. They're lusting for it. They are such strange and off-putting people.

LOL! Dictator? Forcing people to get vaccinated or lose their jobs? Even when the vaccination is not proven to work?
Forcing schools to close by local Dem School Boards. And, the President supporting those SB and attacking those who criticize. Mandating that Trans women and girls be allowed in women sports? Contrary to public wishes.

The only people forced to get vaccinated were federal employees. No one else was, at least not by the government.

It was the teachers, who were in a vulnerable position who chose not to teach in person. Who was going to teach if the teachers weren't?

Complete misinformation. The vaccine mandate was for any business who did any kind of work with the federal government. That included linemen working outside with utility companies to merchandise stockers at Walmart.
Over 80 million people were affected by that ruling.
For a vaccine that neither stopped transmission or contracting Covid. It only helped the person getting it, not society as a whole.
You and your bodily autonomy can go pound sand.

Luckily the vaccine has worked and is working. So your scenario is false from the get-go.

People have to get vaccinated all the time. For school (do you not have children or remember when you were a child and had to get vaccinated. As in yes you were forced to either get vaccinated or to go to a different school if you chose not to). Also to travel to certain countries.

I realize R's do not care about the common good or doing the right thing for society's sake. But man. More than 1,000,000,000 people dead. Including relatives of mine from before the vaccine. And I'm willing to bet also relatives and friends of yours.

So yes, if you work in a field like health where you interact with a lot of people and are told you need certain vaccines to be able to go into work, then you will have to choose between getting the vaccine or rejecting it and quitting your job. Lots of jobs have various requirements. If you don't like having requirements for a job then start up your own business.

Outside of healthcare, give me one example of an employer demanding to see your MMR or chicken pox vaccination card. Both which by the way confer sterilizing immunity. Something that actually protects the general population.
But every business was being forced to shake down employees for something that equates to the seasonal flu vaccine.

+ a million

Not to mention the effort to control what we drive, how we cook, what refrigerators and dishwashers we purchase, etc. etc. etc.

Republicans are hardly the dictators here. And, anyone who knows Jesse Kelly knows what he meant by the tweet.

says the people ok with women's bodies being controlled, being told what we can and cannot read, then negating people's votes based on the rantings of a madman

Democrats just want to put them in locker rooms with guys.

+1 democrats mansplaining what a woman is to women. Can’t make this shit up.

You call it out of touch - the rest of us call it being a normal person who isn't living on Twitter. And look, if you decide that your campaign is going to message primarily to people on Twitter, that's fine - it's not that big of a group, is the thing. Fine with me - I want Republicans to lose.

Mulvaney has been in numerous high profile businesses commercials. Maybelline, Tampax, EOS shaving, Bud Light. Etc. you can’t get away from this person.

Are you talking about abortion rights? If so, yes, normal people do want their daughters to not have their freedoms limited by male politicians.

And Republicans mansplaining what women can do with their bodies. That is absolutely NOT made up and it's tiresome and disgusting. Stop regulating women's bodies.

"Every business was being forced" -- really? Can't take people like you seriously when you make stuff up.

You want to know which employee required vaccines before Covid? The military, that's who.

And again with your dismissal of all the Covid deaths. A big middle finger to you. I lost my mom because of Covid. Because someone else who had it passed it on to her, before there was a vaccine. The vaccine has saved countless lives including that of my child who has a pre-existing condition that makes her extremely vulnerable. Yes, I am angry at people like you who downplay the reality of our national trauma caused by this virus that you dismiss. The vaccine protects us. It protects my child.
