Yep. There are a few cranks in Arlington who get whipped up by culture war claptrap - a few skulk around DCUM and ARLnow - but by and large, a highly educated populace is kryptonite for Republican electoral success.


I’m an Arlington liberal but find this viewpoint extremely elitist. Highly educated or extremely privileged? I think they usually go hand in hand and I’d rather go back to being the party of the working class. I think the Democratic Party does more for working people which is why I usually vote blue. However, the elitist TPs are a huge turnoff and the party is out of touch with most Americans (see school closures and other vax mandates). And, yes, my whole family is vaccinated but I was so turned off by the vilifying by the left.


You do realize schools have been mandating vaccinates for decades, right? I am in my 50s and had to have all my shots before entering schools in the 1970s.

Not sure what this has to do with the Democratic Party. It’s always been a nonpartisan and sensible health issue.


Really? Schools require vaccines that have not been FDA approved like the Covid vaccines?

Well, according to DCUM posters, we don’t really need Republicans because the democrats love and vote for candidates like Youngkin.

Why would anyone accept a party whose leader instigated an attack on the Constitution/insurrection and currently leads in polls to continue being that party’s standard bearer?

Or are you one of these people who think it’s clever to call liberals hypocrites for not tolerating intolerance?

Stop shifting goalposts. You referred to vaccines, not COVID.

COVID vaccines had FDA EAU pending approval, which they ultimately got.

It’s amazing how conservatives love to blast government as incompetent but cling to this pedantic “but it didn’t have *approval*.

The sheer stupidity and bad faith thinking is truly breathtaking

What happened to dems being the party of tolerance? I thought that was the plan?

I don't speak for all Ds, but personally I'm extremely intolerant of traitors and misogynists.

Guess some people are ok with those?

Unlike lovely, open-minded Democrats such as yourself?


I'm proud not to have an "open mind" when it comes to traitors. Some things are just wrong.


+1 the “why won’t you tolerate my intolerance” trope is so tired and lame


+1

"why won't you tolerate treason or misogyny?"

Yes, except for not tolerating intolerance. The plan is to be intolerant of intolerance.

Republicans in a nutshell.

And most voters in Arlington are too smart to be suckered by that.

You're a parrot with the brain of a rock.
Its fun watching you as victims of street crime that you bring on yourself with your naive and misguided stupidity.
Very satisfying!

I’m not a republican anymore, but people like you are why I can’t be a democrat either.
