Rare indeed....

Very nice!

Sweet! I'm a rare steak! Registered Democrat with common sense here.

"Registered Democrat with common sense here."

If you had common sense, you would not be a Democrat . . . self loathing and hatred of what is good for this country is not common sense- it is insanity.

p.s. You should not be supporting, in any way, a meme that furthers global warming, via cow farts.

Dude just stop

We are soooo far past needing to call out the dangers of liberalism, and its place within the Democrat Party, that compromise of any kind is its own brand of insanity.

A vote for ANY Democrat is a vote supporting the murder of unborn children- there is no "common sense" that says this is acceptable.

What you’re missing is that the common sense leftists are the ones that DON’T vote for todays Democrats. Bill Maher and Tim Pool are good examples.

Then are they really Democrats at all? Being a "Democrat of Times Past" serves zero purpose.

But I will bet when it comes to many of the social ills that plague our society, they are still in support of those. We got to where we are today thanks to such Democrats.

:0)

*leftists

Because there are liberal Republicans?

Most Republicans are liberal, which is right next to conservative on the political spectrum. The dem party however is leftist which is left of communism, socialism, and fascism.

Two things...

Moderates are kind of wedged in there between conservatism and liberalism. And tangently, there are also libertarians which fall either between moderates and conservatives, or tangently are considered moderates within their own right. However, moderates are typically a label reserved for people who are conservative about somethings and liberal about others. Or perhaps even libertarian about some things as well.

Leftism is pretty much a broad term for anything politically left of the mainstream. You might argue everything mainstream is left, but this is not true. If it were, we would not be allowed to talk to one another.

In America, Leftism is often defined as a liberal extremist. Someone willing to sacrifice their own privileges' to enact the changes they claim to desire. It is fair to think that that is exactly what is happening in regards to covid with vaccines and masks; however, this isn't true if the scientific evidence continues to support their reasons. This doesn't mean you should pursue any scientist who makes a counter-claim as speaking truth or having alternative facts. Not every study or expert has the same credibility as any other. The consensus of data will always be the more truthful than the outliers. And while outliers can become the consensus, until that happens, we have to rely on the best data we actually have.

Second, the phrase "left of communism, socialism, and fascism," means they're actually beyond those those things, or worse than. It would be more accurate, at least grammatically, for you to claim that leftists ARE for communism, socialism, and fascism. Unless you really are saying leftists are worse than these things. Not sure how that can be true.

And perhaps there are leftists (or political extremists) that want these things but a majority of Democrats are against communism and fascism. I can't say how many are against socialism, but they've repeatedly outvoted (and outnumbered) Democratic socialists.

The only thing left of socialism, fascism, and communism is open totalitarianism, which the leftists (not left) are for. Libertarian are right of conservatives, anarchists are right of libertarian. Moderates are left of liberals.

I’m glad I’m not asking you for directions. LOL! You’re clearly very lost in the directions of political ideologies. Almost everything you said was wrong.

You need to do some research and stop listening to CNN.

I don’t watch CNN.

Then why keep repeating their talking points?

What talking points?

You’re saying anarchism is a form of the political right when it has no political bearing whatsoever. It is antithetical to any kind of system of order.

Your statements are indicative of one dimensional thinking. You can only think in terms of left or right, (two-directions) when that is an over simplification of the overall structure of political ideology.

Here is how you literally described the spectrum.

Totalitarianism-Socialism/Communism/Fascism-Moderates-Liberals-Conservatives-Libertarians-Anarchists

Where as I posited it was closer to

Leftists-Liberals-Moderates/Libertarians-Conservatives

And I grant you this is an over simplification.

A better example would be 2 dimensional chart, one I’m sure you’ve seen before.

Aside from me expressing doubt that Democrats want fascism and communism, which is a fact repeatedly stated and made apparent by their actions, I’ve expressed no mainstream talking point. Facts aren’t taking points, my dude.

You may be of the opinion, or even share that opinion with many, that Democrats are fascist or communist but your opinions don’t make that true.

The political spectrum is between no government at all (far right) and maximum government (far left)

By the way fascism is on the far right.

I'd suggest watching Dennis Prager on liberals vs. Leftists

Prager U? Lolol we would get our info from The My Pillow Guy first and he's so deep into the rabbit hole he's trying to bang Alice

Wow

Believe it or not, I know there are liberal Republicans.

They’re the pro-life, pro-death penalty, religious rights trump any other civil rights, anti-mask, anti-vaccine, former Democrats, Trump Supporter crowd who often falsely claim to be libertarian, independent, conservative, or laughably claim anarchism is an acceptable form of rightwing activism.

They’re just as bad as Antifa. Possibly worse.

Do you mean just the anarchists or everyone there? Also, are you claiming no trump supporter can be libertarian? Democrats kept flipping out at him for lowering taxes and government influence I'm people's lives, exactly what libertarians want

*in

Trump Supporters are whatever Trump says they are. They tend to hang on his every contradictory word. Not every move made by Trump can be described as libertarian. I’d say Trump was just a liberal, in over his head, and quoting conservative talking points daily.

Trump supporters are by definition the people who support him, not whatever trump said they are. Believe it or not, some of us don't like a lot about him, but any democrat at the moment is a thousand times worse. My opinion is that his policies were amazing but he has a massive ego problem. He isn't racist or authoritarian like the left claims, but he obviously was sexually immoral. Not a rapist, either, but he did do stuff with prostitutes. All of this is to say that right-wing voters can think differently from one another and aren't all mindless followers of a crowd. Both sides have some sheep like that, but for the most part, we have our beliefs and vote for the person who agrees with them more than the other.

Dude, I know right-wingers can think differently from one another. I’m a Republican.

Trump’s contributions, at best, belong to his rotating members of his administration rather than himself. Trump was an overrated circus barker. He has no real platform other than a ton of wasteful ways to spend taxpayer money.

If you're going to ask questions, maybe don't do it at the end of the convo so I can actually answer them next time.

buh-bye!

Again, Trump’s contributions belong to his rotating members of his administration rather than himself.

He had no experience running government and just agreed with the last person in the room with him. He was a figurehead, nothing more.

Just as empty headed as the dementia ridden President we have now.

Worse, even. His ego got the better of him when it came to facts. Not just a few slip of the tongue either. He doubled down on numerous occasions when he was wrong. Very rarely did he admit a mistake.

“Does” for “doesn’t”

And never do these on-the fence Trump voters ever bring up that Trump’s solution to gun violence was to essentially confiscate all guns and suspend due process entirely.

Meaning if you owned a ton of guns, government could come and take them away while they investigate if you are a terrorist.

Sounds kind of antithetical to the second amendment to me,

Thank god the last person in the room wasn’t a Democrat, amiright?

Thank god he is no longer in office, amiright?

Even the dementia in chief wouldn’t suspend due process and confiscate guns.

That’s why I voted for him.

It’s a sad day when a Democrat has more sense than the Republican front runner. Hopefully those days are behind us.

"Again, Trump’s contributions belong to his rotating members of his administration rather than himself."

That's what leaders do- they pick the right people for the job, and when they turn out to not be the right people for the job, they pick someone else. A good leader does not do everything themselves- that is the definition of a bad leader.

At least you did not waste your time claiming that all of the positive metrics that occurred under Trump's leadership didn't happen.

You fail to see how things actually work. While Trump was in office, the economy was humming, energy independence was achieved, and unemployment for key segments of the population was at its lowest since the time from when they started tracking this data.

You live in a selfish fantasy world of ignorance. How's those gas prices working out for you? Or that Bidenflation? (https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2021/08/11/consumer-prices-jump-5-4/) From destroying thousands of jobs related to the Keystone pipeline, to enabling Putin to proceed with his pipeline, to all of their efforts to destroy any and every institution that makes this country great, he most certainly is working towards eliminating the Bill of Rights- you are a fool to suggest otherwise. As for Trump taking guns away- not a one, not a single one was taken away as a result of him speaking on that subject. In spite of your nonsense ad hominem, the info at magapill goes to show that 'actions speak louder than words'. But, like all moronic liberals, don't believe your lying eyes, right?

As for the "dementia-in-chief" not suspending due process- you must be kidding, right? Whether it is China Joe, or his handlers running things, they most certainly have done just that with some of the protesters from January 6th- the insurrection that wasn't an insurrection. Forget how Democrats are not only letting rioters burn cities to the ground, but encouraging it.

If you call yourself a Republican, then you are of the strain that is worse than a Democrat- a RINO. Your words reveal all a real conservative needs to know.

They certainly exist, I’ve met lots. But all of them I speak with have told me they’re unhappy with what the current DNC is doing.

I concur - democrat here who can't stand the people representing democrats. Voted Trump in 2016 & wanted him to win 2020 too.

What irks me from both side of the legislative branch is whenever they get on TV and act like they someone how represent the US as a whole. If they just stuck with representing their states or districts then maybe the country would be better.

Right. That person represents an area of the US. Act like it and do what's right locally. If all the local items run well - the entire country runs well.

Is that way super rare steak is referred to as "blue"?

upvote.

Uh no. swap the liberals and Leftists and that would be correct.
