In a political quiz I took in high school I scored as a moderate with liberal leanings. I've often said that I'll vote for whoever I think will do the best job; it's just that right now that belongs to the Democrats because Republicans are currently psychotic.

Pretty much yeah

Democrat has become for the people, all people, races, gender, and sexuality

Republican is for the white christian males with money and the businesses


i dunno about you but when someone says they’re conservative but also claim to support things like women’s rights and gay marriage I want to call bullshit because even if you claim you don’t support anti-gay, racist, and sexist standings, you’re still on their side and letting it happen.

“not all conservatives” is basically ignoring the problem just because some people aren’t so bad

imagine “not all nazis” as an argument, like ‘oh that one nazi snuck food to the Jews so they’re not ALL bad’, like, no, just because one person in that group might not be a part of the bad shit doesn’t mean that shit isn’t happening and should be ignored in favor of the one decent human being who was in the nazi party (am talking about a real person BTW, a holocaust survivor came to speak at my school and he explained that was one main reason he didn’t hate the Germans, because some actually legit tried to help as best they could)


If you’re against something, do something, don’t excuse it just because you yourself are not “like them”

I understand where you are coming from, but are you willing to apply that line of thinking to liberal ideologys?

For example

Not all liberals and feminists say things like “kill all men” and are violent members of antifa… But enough are to generalise the rest and disassociate from the group"

Also I know plenty of people who are Republican who aren’t “white Christian males” a friend of mine, who’s whole family is from mexico and who’s household only speaks spanish, came with me to see Trump when he came to phoniex. @kekoslovakia is one of my best friends and he’s conservative and not white. Also I’m female, and while I do identify as Christian I’m not very religious at all sooooo….

Racism is not and never has been part of the Republican platform. It is, however, a deeply rooted part of the Democrats’.

Anyone who pays even a the slightest attention in high school government knows that the Republican and democratic ideals essentially swapped in the 40s and 50s
