[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They don’t have a “reasoning”.  Their daddy was a Republican, so they are Republicans. They believe republicans are the party of the hardworking white man and ladylike white woman. Their identity is wrapped in that vision and they mostly have no clue what these politicians do or don’t do for people like them.  They think Democrats are moochers. They don’t believe in government, so they don’t actually expect politicians to do anything. They *think* it only hurts “those moochers”.  Anyone who still votes Republican is either ignorant or crazy- they have zero policies and don’t give a crap about public service. [/quote]

Have you read this thread???  I’m having trouble believing you are a real person.[/quote]

Literally nothing said before this post contradicts this. Nothing matters more to republicans than party loyalty and identity. Dead children, be damned.

One thing republicans have in common is that they can’t understand anything until they go through it themselves.  They can’t tolerate abortion until their daughter needs one. They can’t stand interracial marriage until their niece marries a “nice black guy”.  Healthcare isn’t a right until they lose their insurance. Unemployment is an “entitlement” until they lose their jobs.  Everyone else is lazy, irresponsible, and looking for a handout, but they and their families are deserving and they are an exception.

Real person sick of the BS. Republicans support domestic terrorism. No decent person who understands government still supports them. [/quote]

This is hyperbole, but essentially the righteousness you are referring to is a thing, it's easy to blame others and be less empathetic until it happens to you.  But same can be said about Democrats, no? Most highly polarized opinions are lacking empathy by definition, because real life always has fine lines and gray zones. [/quote]
