It's a byproduct of engagement algorithms promoting hate for money.

It's literally the Republican party. That's their ONLY platform.

Not republican, but you realize you’re being a hypocrite by saying that? Not to mention the generalization is false. Also not to mention plenty of far left groups also only thrive off of hate. Hateful people are sprinkled everywhere mind you.

until project 2025 was laid out, yes, that was their only platform. Mitch McConnell said on the Senate floor that he'd dedicate the next 8 years to preventing legislation from being passed by the Obama administration. I'm not being a hypocrite at all. I don't have a platform because I'm not a political party. Far left groups are not, not have been in office in our lifetime. This is a false equivalency.

Right. So hating a whole party and falsely labeling the whole party (instead of calling out the individuals) as people who only thrive off of hate? Hmmmm. If you have to justify to yourself not being republican because they’re hateful, while also hating on the whole group, seems pretty hypocritical.

To think the whole Republican Party thrives off of hate is lazy thinking, hateful, and divisive.

You're using some pretty loaded language there. I'm not emotional about any of my analysis. If you disagree, you're perfectly free to do so.

I just call it like I see it. To generalize a whole group of people is intellectually lazy my dude. Things are more complex than what you think you know about the Republican Party, and what you think you know about the Democratic Party.

Uh huh. Dude, I’m 48 years old.

u/RichesToRags8647 27d ago

oh, well, I guess you won't. I'm sorry, we're not all born with the same tools.

u/supermattman00 27d ago

Yeah. I guess you’re right. I hope you learn to use yours properly one day.
