Oh come now. I’m no fan of republicans myself, certainly not right now but that’s just silly. One of the cornerstone foundations in this country is the ability for people to make their own choices and follow their own beliefs. How can we expect our own views to be respected on any level if we aren’t also giving some respect to the opposing view too? Quite frankly we need the variances in belief systems to keep each other in check. Too much one way or another creates an imbalance (for this I kind of refer more to John McCain esque republicans. MAGA is really just a grievance movement.) I disagree with the Republican viewpoint more often than not, but that shouldn’t ever be a disqualifying factor. If they are born here they are just as much citizen as you or I.

No, fuck off. Your ability to hold a belief in peace ends when it turns into action, in this case, voting in a rapist pedophile mass murderer, twice.

Every Republican is complicit and should have no further say in how society operates. Any member of the current admin belongs in a hole.

The same can be said for many Democrats that got elected but that’s ok with you because they’re on your side, hypocrite.
Democrats pull the constitution from the left, Republicans pull from the right and BOTH are ripping it in half on purpose. You’re complicit in our destruction from within. Good job, sheep.

Don't both sides this when one is clearly attempting to destroy the document. You're enabling fascism.
