It could account for his dementia but Drudge not a reliable source.
 
So those who vote for limited governments to try to avoid overreach like this are nazis. lol.
The bill is simply atrocious. The claim that any republican, even if they denounce this bill, is a nazi is almost as atrocious and shows just how low one’s behavioral IQ has become.

Two wrongs do not make a right, regardless of how wrong the first one is. Only child like mentalities do not get this.

calling all republicans who vote based on belief in limited government, is simply like a child having a tantrum.
Mature minds are able to segregate appropriately and not blanket label like this.

This is no different than Oklahoma calling all Hispanics terrorists.

if we want to end this horrific ideal some people in power have(racism), we can’t fight it with more blanket judgements, which is exactly what racism is. A blanket judgement.
So yeah. Two wrongs don’t make a right. And until the majority realize this, this will just continue.

Some simply do not get this.


Again. This bill is ridiculously worded and I’m willing to bet there are many republicans who feel the same and would/will denounce this bill as it’s written.
But yeah, let’s just act like racists and blanket judge all. That is the answer. lol.

kids….the future scares the hell out of me. Those “better than thou” folks have no clue they are behaving in the same way. Blanket judgements against a large sect of people who don’t agree amongst themselves.
Good job perpetuating what you rail against.

Or better yet. Anyone who moves to Florida, a fucked up racist run state, must also be a racist.
Fucking florida racists….

Yeah its fucking wild. I was gonna attempt to break it down but you said it perfectly. Throwing around these extremist labels willy nilly is irresponsible and dangerous. Classifying immigrants, whether they are legal or not, as terroists is fucking insane. And to then turn and blanket call people Nazis as a response is literally doing the exact same thing. How do people not see this? When you label someone something extreme it then justifies the idea of a ‘fitting’ response to the ‘threat’. So we can bomb hispanics like terrorists now and hang republican voters in nuremburg-like trials? Is that the answer?
People’s brains turn to mush as soon as politics are introduced.

I took @theprunetang's post to mean if you vote party line Republican.

Because if you do, I'm not sure how you could make the argument that you support equal rights or even individual rights. Let alone limiting government over reach.

I’m not gonna assume. I’ve been condemned by him too many times. I’ll take the words he wrote for what they are. He is free to amend/update as he sees fit. Until then, I’m going off of the words I read.
There is no room for assumptions in this very delicate, yet extremely important topic. Vagueness has partially created this mess we are in.

Blacks are criminals.
Asians can’t drive.
American Indians are drunks.
Hispanics are lazy, drug running terrorists.
Republicans are nazis.

it’s all the same.
until we articulate exactly what we mean, it will be interpreted as what is said. Not what is meant.

Two wrongs do not make a right.

Sad. But the country has become a continous series of overreactions.

All special interest groups, and everyone promoting agendas, overreact to gain power over anyone that does not agree with them.

In the end, overreacting does not benefits the majority. Instead it benefits the intitiled rude loud mouths. Which creates more problems then the issue they claim to be fixing.

These intitled people live by the motto, "The end justifies the means".

I have voted republican most of my life on most things. Not all my life on all things, but I’ve been a registered republican most of my adult life.
I have never ever voted for anything that denies any right to a woman, her body or any individuals right for people to be who they are.
I believe women should be treated with 100% respect and equality. to further that, I’d say I’m an extremist that believes women should be all but worshipped.

Not all republicans think/feel the same on all topics.

This red vs blue is just bullshit.


Crandc, you ever watch designated survivor on Netflix? If not, I suggest you give it a shot. Kiefer Sutherland production that blew me away. The most respect to Sutherland and the topics he brought up in the show.
I bet you will be impressed with it too.

We just need to stop generalizing. Period. Or nothing. Literally nothing will ever change.
 
I read prunetang's post as 3 options if you were a republican in today's climate.....first one he listed is you're actually a Nazi....second one you're a Nazi sympathizer....third is that you're apathetic or tolerant of Nazis. I hear plenty of vitriol from both sides of the aisle...lots of name calling made even more popular by the republican poster boy who has a insulting name for anyone who crosses him. To me after Jan 6th the GOP was left with about a dozen honest republicans...the ones who voted to impeach Trump and supported the Jan 6th committee. I also read a poll recently that said independent voters right now make up 48% of the voting population and the Dems and Trumpettes are tied at about 27% apiece. The loudest and rudest voices in the media will be the ones blanket statements evolve around. Republicans clearly in my view have made governing unnecessary in view of partisan sensationalism. I'll say this...every racist or Nazi or white supremacist is supporting the GOP across the board. On the other side of the aisle they are interested in civil rights and equal rights and the right to choose. To me it's a pretty cut and clear division of democracy vs authoritarian fundamentalist religious rule by dictator/monarch/god's chosen candidate. One party seems to be living in the 21st century and the other in the days of the Spanish inquisition.

48%. That should be the focus. Not the vocal extremists red or blue. get the red vs blue out of it and vote individually on each topic based on what is right for the people.

Party line voters on either side of the isle are the downfall. But we should be focusing on expanding and adhering to that 48% majority. Not sitting on either side of the isle pointing the finger at the other side. that has been the modus operatus for decades and hasn't fixed shit.

I would put you into the group of honest republicans who voted to impeach Trump and support the Jan 6th committee then...I never heard you post anything against equality or democracy here and the GOP needs to purge itself of the Paul Gossar's and Donald Trump's thug army. I'm waiting for more conservatives to step up and hold tyranny accountable and make their party respectable after what I see as an era of party over anything, even it's own citizens.
 
I don't have Netflix so no idea what this program is I should watch.

But I do distrust anyone who claims to worship women. It's usually a cover for opposing equality.

Only cats should be worshipped.

I didn’t claim to worship women. I said all but. But really. Distrust if you want, I’ve been so kind to you and it seems to be simply dismissed. Maybe those who I have argued in favor of you for are right and I’m wrong? I mean really? Of all that I typed this is what you got from it?
The show is called “Designated Survivor”. I don’t know if it’s viewable on another format.
But really. If we keep biting the hand that feeds us….. geez…
Do as you please Crandc…

Some people are only capable of seeing the worst it seems.
Can’t believe how often kindness get shut down from seemingly prejudiced viewpoints. Anyhow, I said my peace, take it or leave it. I’m moving on now…
 
I don't know you. But I have been a woman for a very long time. Don't dismiss my experience.
I don't know you but by your own admission you vote for candidates who think they should control my uterus and want to end marriage equality. And most have sworn allegiance to an outright fascist.
I will do as I please. I mean, I am over 18. By a lot.
 
So let me get this straight. People want other people to change. To get woke. And when they change from republican to independent and exhibit such change, instead of it being acknowledged, they remain condemned for past votes by those who want the change.

What a perfect stance to take….
literally can’t make this double standard up.
What a great way to get people to NOT care about helping others who cry for help…

damned if you, do damned if you don’t.
8, 18, 80. Bodies grow old. Apparently some minds stay young and bitter….

wtf… smh…

Seems pretty simple. If you don't support people who want government choosing who can be wed with who, or support government choosing if a woman should be allowed to terminate her own pregnancy then you wouldn't be included.
 
I didn't hear change. I didn't hear "I used to vote Republican but their opposition to equal rights and to basic democracy made me decide to leave". I just heard "why aren't you nice to me?"

Because it's hard to be nice to anyone who opposes my civil rights.

got it. Selective memory and perception. No where in this conversation did I say how I voted until you brought it up from past conversations, of which that has already been explained. But you choose to only remember what you want I suppose. I’ve made it very clear more than once.

We all hear what we want to hear… some just want to hear hate to perpetuate their own hate I suppose…

I’ll keep fighting and doing what’s right for all people, regardless of color, creed, sexual orientation, etc.
I hope one day you find the peace you so desire, but trust me. It will not come from trying to tear down those who want to help.

But I’m done defending you on here to others….

All too often someone proclaiming themselves Christian means hates gays, outlaw abortion, ban books.

An Ohio pastor decided to actually follow the old fashioned Jesus of Nazareth and opened his church to 18 homeless people during recent cold snap, providing place to sleep, food and shower.

He has been indicted on 18 zoning violations.
