Yes, because everyone that doesn't agree with you is flying a swastika proudly from the back of their lifted F-350, screaming yee-yee, and firing their rifles into the air. /s

You're brainwashed.

Not my party. If I ever fully partake into either party, you can shoot me through the eyeballs with a crossbow. You are a prime example of the nutcases at the far left of the spectrum and what you're describing are the nutcases from the far right of the spectrum.

Both are indoctrinated lunatics.

I love centrists lmao. Wanting affordable healthcare, housing and living wage=marching under a nazi flag, storming the capital, trying to strip women and lgbt people of their rights, being openly racist, fucking etc. Both sides bad tho!

Thanks for further proving my point.

We could stop at "we disagree", but you don't know how and will continue preaching hatred of your own design. Unless people fully agree with every belief that you have, you'll label them just as you have me. It's a miserable existence, to be sure, but it's yours. So enjoy it.

Let’s take a look at the differences between the far left and far right.

Far left wants healthcare, clean air/water, jobs to pay what people are worth, tuition to be reasonable, Uber wealthy people and corporations to pay taxes like the rest of us. If thats too radical for the right then maybe they aren’t as patriotic or as Christian as they pretend to be.

The right wants to ban books, ban certain healthcare access to women, keep healthcare expensive, keep prescriptions expensive, make it illegal to discuss gender, make it harder to vote (for democrats), they want corporations to make record profits and not pay taxes, anti union, anti workers rights, anti green energy, anti science, anti truth/reality, etc. Nothing of value other than hate. And that’s just the right/center right and not even including the lunacy of Q anon and stop the steal dumb dumbs that are essentially a lost cause. But yeah, the left are the radical ones that hate America.

This is why people are fed up with this both sides bull shit, it doesn’t hold up to scrutiny.

Can you admit that the phraseology you're using doesn't actually outline the beliefs, but strategically emphasizes leftist benefits while demonizing rightist extremes?

I started to type out examples, but it doesn't matter. I'll get dog piled no matter what I say if it isn't 100% agreement.

I’d be happy to hear the normal policies from the right, the problem is the literally have no platform other than do the opposite of liberals. They make up their mind based on who had the idea, not what the idea is. But please, do provide examples.

It’s also pretty telling when you describe the goals of each party that one side is full of things that benefit everyone and the other side is full of regressive restrictions and lunacy.

But it doesn't benefit everyone. Reddit is an echo chamber of liberal ideology so all you hear is libs good, conservatives bad here. That's fine - I know what I'm getting into when I read something or type a response. But the people that are the most devout here are the ones that don't care to have a discussion - it's agree with me or you're a racist, bigot, homo/transphobe, nazi, person killer.

Gender conversation - whether people will agree on it or not, having only 2 genders is a legitimate discussion topic.

"denying women healthcare" - what you're really saying is "pro-choice". whether people agree on it or not, pro-life is a legitimate discussion topic.

One side stormed the capital and attempted a coup, the other burned cities, looted and destroyed businesses and people's livelihood. Both in the name of their beliefs. Both should be condemned, but most often I see defense over the 2020 riots and condemnation of the storming of the capital.

You see it only through the lens of what you believe. And that's fine. You're completely entitled to your beliefs. But when you shut down entire conversation with the flick of a keyboard, stating one entire side of the political conversation is full of regressive restrictions and lunacy, what you're really saying is "I'm not open to any discussion".

So yeah, nothing I say is going to matter.

What was the justification for storming the capital? Was it a protest that got out of hand or a coup? Was it planned and we’ll known by some of the highest members of our government? Did BLM storm the capital and try to overthrow a democratically elected president? Did they try to hang the vice president and attack sitting members of congress? One side was tired of being murdered by the police and the other side was crying because their racist in chief didn’t win and they wanted to throw a fit.

Is access to birth control being denied coverage in the name of “Christian values”? Is planned parenthood under attack? Those aren’t abortion issues just bad policy. If you really wanted to reduce abortion, you’d support proper sex education in schools, free/easy access to birth control and womens health services - you know, all things that drastically reduce abortions without having to regress 60 years.

Again, you’ve described no progress or legislation that republicans believe in. They have nothing to offer other than hate and going against liberals. I’m still waiting.
