An acquaintance actually asked this question

When you don’t want to admit to being in an all Kool-Aid diet so you pre-emptively prevent anyone from disagreeing with you from making you defend your unfounded beliefs

By the time y’all wake up it will be too late

I’ll hear you out on you disagreeing with my stances. That’s the difference

Which would not be okay if dems practiced the same diversity with ideologies that they *claim* to practice with things such as race.

But when your ideology is literally all out warfare on your political opponents (meaning any ideology that is not in lock step, aka groupthink with approved dem ideology) and even using lawfare, then you really have no room to claim any moral high ground.

Dems are utter, undeniable hypocrites. (repubs are too, but that's off topic and for another post)

I wouldn’t call it “lawfare” to what’s happening towards Trump. I don’t think he’d be as heavily pursued, if at all, if he wasn’t running for re-election, sure, but I doubt any of the charges are “made up” or that he received an unfair trial.

That being said, yes, our current political parties are full of scumbags, liars, and sellouts. I try to be better than them and hear out the other side, though lord knows I’m not all the time. What our country needs is a big lesson in working together so that we can have safe borders, a strong economy, and protecting the rights of every person no matter their race, gender, heritage, etc.
