I'm registered Republican and have been since I was 18. If I could vote in the primary as an independent in PA I would switch parties.

I'm for small government and agree with "states rights" to an extent. But I love gay people and think universal healthcare is the only healthcare we should have in this country. (I've oversimplified these last few sentences but you get the point)

I never liked Trump. He was a bully and a bully shouldn't be the most powerful man in the world. He says shit you shouldn't say. He tweets things he shouldn't tweet. He calls people rapists while talking about sexually assaulting women. He preaches family values but has how many kids to how many women and it is KNOWN he cheats on his wives. A LARGE percentage of my party turned to man over country and it's gross. I debate every day about leaving but haven't yet. I see some of my friends coming to their senses but not all of them and that kind of scares me.
Here is what I don't get. Republicans have not been a small government party since Reagan. They regularly use the power of the federal government to go after states that pass laws they oppose, so they aren't a state's rights party either.

@Cerealmilk The DA refused to make Rittenhouse's location private unless his lawyers could name a specific threat. Rittenhouse's family thought that was dumb since 90% of the country would probably like to stab him. Apparently some of the cops agreed and told Rittenhouse to list a fake address, you know - so he doesn't get murdered before trial. The DA finally figured out the address was bogus and got mad.
If Rittenhouse is worried about getting killed before trial maybe he shouldn't be out at bars flashing white power symbols and shit.

Unless you're thinking of the "pedo vs child molestor" distinction (which is basically - "help those who feel they are at risk of offending but haven't actually offended, but fuck anyone who actually molests a kid", and even if you don't agree surely you can at least see this is a reasonable view for people to have), very very few liberals think this. Even most of the soft-on-crime brigade still want to see child molestors locked up for a very long time.

Also this "you must condemn this" was invented by right-wingers.

No one has ever asked right-wingers to condemn the insurrection, because we know we couldn't trust it anyway.

"Ha ha! I've condemned the insurrection! Now YOU have to condemn BLM entirely."

That's not how it works. We're not playing by your rules. Not with people to whom lying comes as easily as breathing.

Hell we've got right-wingers in this topic saying "healthcare is not a human right" and I'm supposed to respect their humanity?

Are people still saying the GME drop is all maneuvering by hedge funds? Seems pretty crazy to be able to drop the stock price down like 50% without actually trading much, as the claim seems to be.
A ton of it has to do with the fact that the trading apps are siding with the hedgefunds by limiting the amount that individual investors can purchase.

You know the fucking CRAZIEST part about all this is that Republicans are actively denying people getting money and some how their base still supports them. Even though a huuuge percentage of their base lives in poverty.

How the fuck are you gonna support people in power who quite obviously don't support you? I simply cannot wrap my head around it. It's mindblowing.

Other Republican ideologies, I don't agree with at all but maybe I can admit I see where they're coming from. Stimulus checks during covid though? How can you NOT see that they are actively working AGAINST you and still fucking support them? I just don't understand.

If your insurance doesn't have your back when you need to be insured, it's broken insurance. If your govt doesn't have your back when shit gets real, it's not a real govt. The tradeoff of being a small fry being used 90% of the time is that the big boys should have your back 10% of the time. And they're not even doing that. And people still pledge devotion? Omg ffs
It's simple. You can do damn near anything to GOP voters so long as you allow and encourage their hatred of minorities and the LGBTQ community.

I dont have a problem with the idea of compelling convicts to work, but this particular program seems like a bad one. And it certainly should not be employed against people who have not yet been convicted of a crime.

Regardless, seeing as these people are being assigned the labor by the government, I dont think you can right it off as the free market at work.
If someone is making a profit from their labor while they make none it's slavery. Whether it is the state or a private entity. Slavery is morally and ethically unexcusable.

Youre gonna explain away innocent people getting assaulted/killed and people losing their homes and businesses as something that just happens and say I'm arguing and bad faith.

One injustice does not excuse another injustice period. Fuck that
The vast majority of people being assaulted were people protesting police burtality, who were then met by more police brutality. There is literally a database of police violence from the George Floyd protests with over 2000 videos.

@shockthemonkey it's because they don't give two shits if cops murder black people, they just want people to be quiet about it.
