You still haven't bothered to explain how the Democrats are supposedly going to run the country into the ground, and how it's so bad that it's worth supporting bigotry and hatred. But I suspect you'll continue to duck and dodge as you chuds always do, because having the self awareness to admit you're ok with the aforementioned bigotry and hatred is beyond you. Also, regarding your whining about tolerance - why the fuck should we tolerate people who are actively trying to genocide trans people? https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/6/6eb47377.jpg ...

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]
Why is college mandatory? Why is there no personal accountability for decision-making? Personal responsibility is a valuable trait, one instilled in me from childhood. I'm accountable for all my decisions. Even with student loans. Before ever taking them out I sat and did loooooots of research. I knew full well this was going to be hundreds of thousands of dollars but estimated--correctly--it was payable. Why are others incapable? And why is the government now responsible for their bad decisions?
Doesn't seem relevant to anything discussed here--by any stretch of any interpretation of anything I've said-- but okay
No to castes, yes to accountability as mentioned above. No one ~has~ to go to college. There are great six figure trade jobs. Money from that can shunt into college if the student who cannot afford it later wishes to attend. You keep speaking like there is zero accountability to the borrower. That is a fundamental political difference as well, I think. Democrats have zero concern in my mind--financially or personally--for accountability. --- Administrative Bureaucrat ...

I've been nothing but polite and attempting to justify or reason through my views. "I'm so polite in voting for people that want to legislate away trans rights" Yeah you can smile and wave all you want but it doesn't change the actual actions. That goes for your other few paragraphs, too. The reason people give you shit for voting for Republicans is because Republicans have gone out of their way to ruin life for so many groups of people I doubt I could list them all here.

They don't want to see the rise of the moderate republican. Because nowadays moderate Republicans would still rather vote for the fascist.

Explain with data, how they would be doing that Ended up with more time than I thought tonight. This would have to be piecemealed by topic, as I simply don't care enough to put the time into hours of individual topics all at once. Again, neither party is perfect. I will preface this. But I dislike democratic ideology more. Affirmative action https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/07/14/ private-selective-colleges-are-most-likely-to-use-race-ethnicity -as-a-factor-in-admissions-decisions/ Democratic support for affirmative action is something I disagree with. It disenfranchises high performing ethnicities (I am ~not~ asian, btw) and enforces diversity for the sake of diversity rather than individual merits. This is a purely philosophical approach, if you feel 25% of the university of michigan "should be black" I guess we just have to disagree. Which, if you could believe in etiquette and discourse, is appropriate. Personally I feel, and this should be a recurring theme by now to anyone reading, in personal accountability. Relying on history or color of skin, regardless of validity, is a crutch I would never be proud of. How does it relate to destroying this country? By deliberately separating people by ethnicity and pitting people, indirectly, against each other not on what's inside but by factors beyond control. This stirs division, in my opinion. It largely exists due to democratic support: https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2023/06/08/ demographic-and-partisan-views-about-race-and -ethnicity-in-college-admissions/ You'll also see it skews towards support of younger individuals and less of older. This will be, to be clear, a recurring theme of republican vs democratic principles: age reflecting political opinions. I've personally experienced this. I was insanely passionate about voting democratic when I was 18. Wanted all the handouts since I was super fucking poor and wanted to tax the rich to give all their money to me. That extends to the topic at hand, as I definitely had zero dollars for college. Med school was my ONLY loan, btw. I worked full-time to pay for undergrad which delayed graduation by 3 years. Didn't take a single loan or get money from my parents. I had a 10%-ish scholarship to where I wanted to go but needed cash to cover the balance. But med school is so expensive I didn't even try.

McCarthy isnt a moderate. He blamed the Democrats after they reached a deal to avoid the shutdown. He'd right though.
