    Bingo, the problem is the media is build around such articles and make money of it. People like and are addicted to this outrage porn, what isn't good for anyone besides a few people their pockets.

    It's called doom scrolling for a reason.

    No, no, no, what you are saying is taking away the freedom of red blooded God fearing Americans which makes you a Commie Fascists for trying to stop the spread of a deadly disease. Now if you denied services to the gays and transgender people for just being who they are then you are just practicing your god given rights as an American business owner.

    She's hilarious, she blames everything bad on communists and satanic devil-worshipers. If MTG saw me playing cards in the MTG online arena she'd probably say I'm engaged in witchcraft.

    Given what these people actually believe, I understand it.

    I have been told that science goes against god to support their stuff by someone who had no problem with a potential serial rapist on the Supreme Court and who tried to use a death of a white child killed by a random guy who was swiftly caught and in prison to devalue the death of Floyd who was killed by people in legal positions of power and were protected till the outcry.

    I have been told I was a devil worshipper and me and the Democrats would burn in hell when I pointed out my brother in laws hypocrisy on their Supreme Court packing fears pointing out Gorsuch and Barrett. At which point he tried to threaten me and stormed out when he got laughed at with his own kids telling him to go.


    Their support is understandable when you think of it as people who put their feelings before the facts and would rather burn the nation and their kids futures to the ground than admit they are wrong or their own racist views are also wrong. They are nothing but pride, ego, and fear.

    When you start seeing their voters based on that lens, it gets pretty easy to understand.

    These are people who aren’t educated on the stuff and don’t want to be because it proves them wrong so they just like to pretend they are and will double down till the end rather than face facts.

    These are “god fearing” people who call their own teachings socialist lies and would call their own Jesus Christ a lazy stupid commie liberal if he ever came back without them knowing it.

    Funny how they have come full circle. It's OK for a business not to serve to people they don't want to when it's against minorities. But when you start upsetting the white Karens and the god fearing, gun toting, gay hating conservaturds, now we have a problem.

    Totally. The bricks were laid, and this is the path we are taking now.

    We had 75 million vote for Trump, after watching him bumble his way around for 4 years. That’s excluding voting for him in the first place, after decades of these very conspiracy theories. It’s why everyone kept pointing at his rhetoric about Real Americans and faux patriotism, as historically being used to grift people. But, as soon as an example of this pointed at Hitler, instead of just about every monarchy, all logic and reason just evaporated. Even as they marched screaming ‘Jews will not replace us’...

    They really are the embodiment of hypocrisy and double standards aren't they?

    Which were totally unreasonable. It's not as if the demented right-wing in America has done anything insane to politicians since her victory. /s

    Seriously though, I wonder if there's a way to legislate certain candidates out of an ability to run. MTG has talked about murdering American politicians in the past, so it should be reasonable to draw the line from her statements to the actions of her supporters.

    Have been for at least the 55 years I've been alive. I've never met a Republican, nor been aware of one during my life time that was worth the space they took up. Only caring about the rich and corporations.

    I have met quite a few who were decent people, the problem was the values they equated to the Republican Party doesn’t actually exist and they aren’t politically informed in the slightest. They were skilled in their respective trades and were good people, they just knew nothing of how taxes actually work or the actions of the parties at all with the stuff they THINK they know coming from commentators and opinion pieces.

    They are literally the “I don’t know about the stuff, I don’t want to know, I don’t want to think about it, I just want to get on with my life and be left alone” and they vote based on that.

    They are decent people but living examples of why you should require a certain level of education in certain fields before you should be allowed to vote if it weren’t for the fact that the same people they vote for now would abuse that system to keep educated people out as much as possible.
