Why The Loony Left In Maryland?

[Anonymous]

OP is unhinged and I know that because he claimed Jamie Raskin is dangerous and tried to lead a coup.

Wow.

I've been trying to find a church in my mainline Protestant denomination in Moco and have found more conservative splinter churches claiming to be than denomination than I have never heard of in my middle aged life.

It's perplexing. Finally had to go to the denominations website and only try churches which are officially members. It has been bizarre.

Wow.
You are crazy, please, stay in Virginia.

I'm for lower taxes, controlled immigration, I don't want to see taxpayer money go to abortions and I support our troops and I'm a Christian. But to some people on the north or should I say FAR LEFT side of the Potomac, I'm the Devil. I have friends who are liberals and Democrats and we get along just fine, as I said, I'm just not that obsessed with politics. I voted for Trump in 2016 but he was not my first choice and I don't love everything about him. I think career politicians who spend too much time in DC are out of touch with reality - ON BOTH SIDES - and that a change in leadership was a good thing.
My husband and I have lived all around the DC suburbs for twelve years. We now own property in outer Alexandria, but as recently as one year ago we lived in Silver Spring and GOD HELP US.

Maryland "Progressives" are so radically intolerant and hostile I couldn't wait to move. (The commute is better now, too). Trump is "the bully" but a kid in a MAGA hat gets beat up. Teachers turn a blind eye on students who skip school to go protest. Their brillo-haired Congressman, Jamie Raskin, made it his first priority in office to try to arrange a coup to overthrow our democratically elected President. The Governor Larry Hogan would be a Democrat in any other state, but to people in the DC suburbs in Maryland, he's Satan, and they just nominated a far-left Bernie Sanders puppet plus racial agitator to go against him. They used to have a liberal Republican congresswoman Connie Morrella, who was forced out by one leftist replace by extreme leftist Raskin who is really dangerous in my opinion. And now you have Montgomery County electing a far, far, far-left socialist former SDS member, Elrich, as its next County Executive??? Are you kidding me? If Nuclear-Free, Sanctuary, Vegan-Organic Takoma Park elects to become a protectorate of Cuba or Venezuela, will the rest of Montgomery and Prince George's County follow suit? Half of their government is from Takoma Park anyways, so essentially Venezuela would rule Montgomery County, and it sounds like people would be ok with that.

So my question is, Why is this? When and why did Maryland-DC suburbs, especially Montgomery County, embrace a one-party leftist dictatorship? 30-40 years ago, Maryland was a moderate Southern state with hospitality and politeness. Now its a leftist run-amok. And there's some irony here, because they are missing an opportunity to have some common ground dialogue with people like me - I'm for gun safety, for example. I don't believe that we should have guns in schools and I think there should be background checks - but ironically, if I walked through downtown Silver Spring with Trump paraphernalia, I'd be shot.

Arlington VA says GFY. VA is Blue and we don't want you here either. I hear North Dakota is nice.

Yes why I live in Silver Spring now and proud to raise my protesting kids here. Born and raised in Virginia and with the huge conferste flag on 95, the KKK flyers showing up in Arlington and Loudoun Cty., the defacement of the old African-American school in Loudoun, and NRA headquarters I do not miss VA at all. Glad you found your people I know exactly who they are.

OP Here.

Congratulations Marylanders you all just proved to me how intolerant leftists you are.
I'm not even saying that Northern Virginia is particularly friendly to Conservatives, but at least I'm not constantly confronted with in-your-face leftism. I know two or three people on my street who voted for Trump, but like me, did so more for change against Hillary Clinton, not because we really like Trump. It's such a shame that no one listens to people like me because we have some things we may agree upon. I am in favor of legal immigration and responsible gun legislation.

The main two main difference politically between Maryland and Virginia is that Virginia respects Capitalism and isn't always looking for reasons to call you racist.
In Maryland, if you don't vote for a black person, it's because you're racist, if you don't go to a Black Lives Matter rally, it's because you're racist, if you criticize PG County schools, you're racist, if you bring up safety in Baltimore, you're racist, you say anything, you're racist. I've been told Larry Hogan is racist and for the life of me cannot think of any reason why they would think that. And Maryland Democrats literally just elected three Communists (Jealous, Raskin, and Elrich). I don't care if someone is Black or Jewish, I care because they are Communists!
The Democratic Socialists of America endorse someone and it's received like a good thing! People in Takoma Park and Silver Spring walk around promoting Communism, and people in nice houses with manicured yards in Bethesda and Chevy Chase chastise each other for having White Privilege. Montgomery County is seriously a parody of itself, and Jealous/Raskin/Elrich are like their Troika or three stooges.

Once again I am NOT racist. In Virginia there is a large Muslim population and I have no problem with Muslims. I am a Christian and I practice my religion and they have the freedom to practice theirs. LGBT people have the freedom to practice their lifestyle even if its something my religion does not approve. It's a free country - but the People's Republic of Maryland excludes everyone who is Conservative, Christian, or Capitalist and they deserve what is coming for them. Ben Jealous (and hopefully he will not be elected but if he is, not my problem) will bring economic collapse and a Social Justice Warrior Dictatorship and Marc Elrich will bring Socialism and turn Montgomery County into a protectorate of Venezuela.

And you think I'm the crazy one?

What is that "lifestyle"? you mean raising a family, working hard, eating healthy, taking walks with their loved one?

Can you please explain, I am confused?

Wow. Just... I can’t. I just can’t.

Yes. Yes, I do.

Nothing. Nothing would happen. You think no one has ever done this? Your hyperbole diminishes your arguments into nonsense. Nothing you say can be taken seriously because this is so ridiculous.

At worst OP, you'd get a bit of a side eye. Probably from me when I was going to get my lunch.

Yes, you're soooooooooooooo oppressed. The victim-mentality keeps the Republican party apologists chuggin' along with their fake outrage for their radical positions.

All the money, all the political capital, all the inherited privileges, all the benefit-of-the-doubt from our corrupt legal system - and yet Republicans still whine, whine, whine.

Your last paragraph describes Prince George's County Democrats perfectly.

No wonder you voted for DJT - you are a bigger whine than he is. Grow up, OP.

PS - go check out a REAL COMMUNIST country. The problem with people like you is that you equate left-of-center social policy with full blown "the state owns the means of production" Communism. You are a bad liar and no one takes your criticisms seriously. Your views are a joke for the rest of us to snicker at.
