      The problem for the “Republican party has changed people” (and you are right, I’m 41-it has long since stopped being the party that desegregated the most stubborn portions of the south the Reagan generation’s parents helped elect)-they didn’t realize what selling our futures for their tax cuts was actually buying. Every person I know who fell off the wagon from 2016 to now only gave a darn because they wanted not to pay their fair share like their parents and grandparents had. They fell for all the “welfare queen” garbage and horrific lying these guys peddled them. And now their granddaughters don’t have the rights their friggen wives had. And they are just now realizing what they did to their family by selling them out for paying 3% less taxes.
      However, some of them are still drinking the kool aid, like my parents-which kills me. Because my parents actually are relatively socially liberal-they have just let Fox News destroy their ability to think.

      Yes and in America we are spoiled. Our country is fairly new and we've been powerful enough that we've not had things happen from the outside. So we have not had other countries come in and take over with their culture and ideology and religion and that's usually how countries experienced a sudden complete up turning of everything they believe in live by and stand for. Not since the Civil War have we had that kind of conflict within our borders either and that's the other way that that happens in other countries. Neither have we had other than 9/11 and Pearl Harbor an attack on our soil and we haven't had knowledge from high school and public education about the things that have been committed on American soil like the Japanese internment camps or the Andersonville concentration camp during the Civil War and so on. And people don't know that after the Civil War a lot of the promises made weren't kept. So when you grow up in an environment where the bad news is suppressed and you've not had any harsh realities forced upon you in the way almost every other country experiences then you can think that the way we live is forever and the Constitution will always keep us safe even if we struggle a little bit about the finer points or the updates. But that just isn't the case and if we looked at the Big Arc of history and many countries we would see you can have a Period of Enlightenment followed by a slide all the way back into practically the Dark Ages or you can have technology and then be dropped all the way back to practically the caveman days or you can have professors and universities and culture and international context and then suddenly everything is wiped out in your back living on the soil and the professors and doctors and writers and historians and all of those murdered in front of other people and it being treated as a cleansing.. that happens and those people who survived that without being killed and up in concentration camps for the rest of their lives busting rocks and shoveling done with their bare hands in the dead of winter until they die of starvation and that's considered lucky because maybe there's a chance to escape. North Korea wasn't always North Korea and China wasn't always run by a dictator. So we need to know that this can actually happen and it can happen in the blink of an eye certainly within months or a few years and almost always when you look at the successful movements under Stalin and Hitler and all of those they started stealthily while people laughed at the leader as a buffoon thinking that that person had some kind of wacky Charisma for a few people but mostly was too outlandish to really draw much attention and certainly no power. And always they found out too late that that person struck a chord of suffering with him that population that made for a street and suffered so long. And so when you hit that streak of insanity those people are ready to blow Sky High and that's when you can have a revolution that ends up in murder of everything that has gone before and including the leaders of what has gone before and any basis for the improvements that have gone before like the constitution. Don't think it can't happen here and don't think that these people didn't gain extra inspiration from the handmaid's tale. Television show. They looked at that and already had a similar agenda and decided, "you know what? let's throw in a little more of what we see there because we like what we see and why shouldn't we go ahead and finish the job if that's what could happen because once it does we won't even have on the women opposing us.!! Heads up people-- this is real and it is immediate and it certainly could happen!!

      And one of the saddest things that some of the most depressed groups in history are actually supporting it because they don't realize that they are Patsy's for that movement. That's your black Republicans and your gay Republicans and even your Log Cabin Republicans at least the younger idealistic ones who think they're going back to the real roots of freedom and rights for everyone in fiscal conservatism. But all those women who are cheerfully agreeing that women should not be leaders and they should not be given weapons and they shouldn't need Advanced education are supporting their own demise and don't know it. Some of them enjoy that and think that they're headed for heaven because it's the lifestyle they already live but they don't realize that once it becomes law that all women have to do that then they may feel a little differently and they may experience a lot more draconian details than their male partners and neighbors would ever admit they wanted until they actually have the power to force it on those women again. So if you are one of those women in the movement Thinking by golly I've been living the right way and these women are going to have to understand too you need to think about what else do they want that you don't even know about or that your partner doesn't seem to want when you're snuggling and doing pillow talk and holding hands in church but your neighbors do? And what does your partner your husband know about what your neighbors do one that he is not sharing with you for fear you would be upset order for fear you would say something in front of them and embarrass him for having a wife that has a little independent thought on occasion.

They quash, undermine, and/or subsume aaaaany attempt to shift politics to the left.
      Obviously another Trump term would spell disaster, as it would involve pursuing P25 policies, buuuuut, just as the Biden administration has continued and/or produced some conservative positions, some leftists like myself *fully* expect for P25-like policies to take hold, even under a Democratic Party president/administration.

      Really? I'm pretty sure I remember about 60 years ago there was an alternative bill to the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which was championed by two Republicans, one even being a future president, and the main reason why it failed is because someone "said the quiet part out loud". Also, most of the ones who opposed Roe v. Wade since its ruling were Republicans. The progressive wing of Republicans pretty much died with Eisenhower, who'd likely be a moderate Democrat by today's standards. Hell, Nixon pretty much came up with the "southern strategy" and fairly conservative for his time.

    I just looked out the window to see a bus with an ad on it for a web page, created by my state's government, to help pregnant people avoid anti-abortion clinics. THAT is what happens when you vote blue! 👍

    It's amazing that a cabal of freaks can literally publish the script to *_The Handmaids Tale_* as an actual plan, and hope no one (who counts) would notice. To hear him deny knowing about the document, which his own cabinet officials worked on, is so...typical. Depressing, but not surprising at all...

      Christian Nationalists don't love Jesus. Their religion is hatred, cruelty, fear, forcing others to suffer, bigotry, and hypocrisy. They love claiming they're redeemed and their sins are forgiven--but they scream that everyone else is a sinner and must be punished.
