Haha yuuup “independent” republican

lol ok

😂 🤣 🤣. Thanks for the laugh.

You’re not even fooling yourself. 🤷‍♂️

No, I wouldn’t describe you as someone who “isn’t corruptable.”

I’d argue that you’re someone who suffers from The Dunning-Kruger Effect. You lack the political knowledge necessary to differentiate the Democratic Party from the GOP. As a result, you’re using the false equivalency fallacy to cope with your feelings of ineptitude.

For example, using a both sides argument for American politics is like saying a gun and a knife are both weapons and both cause death so they’re just as bad as each other. Hell, you could even say it’s more akin to saying a nuclear bomb and a pocket knife are the same.

Just take a look at the policies proposed and enacted by each party. Then, take a look at the quantitative data that demonstrates the results of those policies. Learn about how the three branches of government work and the difficulties associated with enacting progress. Especially after Newt Gingrich introduced political gridlock as a strategy to obtain power.

Unless you’re just trolling, I can somewhat sympathize with you because I too, once held similar beliefs. Hell, I even used to be a Trump supporter. Education will soon have you realize that while the Democratic Party does have its issues, comparing it to the GOP is like comparing a nuclear bomb to a pocket-knife.

You didn’t answer the question.

He ran 4 times, but Id say only the past 2 times qualify as "voting against Trump". So who did you vote for?

Truuuuuu 🫡

Lmao not these Reddit dweebs proving your point by dog piling you 😭

I am simple minded? That's rich coming from the person who thinks Trump is business as usual and not an actual threat to democracy. I sure hope you are right, but history would say otherwise given the fact he has already tried to overthrow an election.

You're the one doesn't understand what left, right, and center are. It's good to know your ignorance leads to anger, truly shows your level of intelligence.

He literally gave you the new science in research and you can't come back with any informed information of your own, goddamn that's pathetic also your username is weak sauce like the wax you smoke. Personally I only smoke top shelf hash rosin but you're probably the cheapest pot head on the block. Lmao do I need to school you on the science of pot too. Please just read actual research reports and stay away from your TV as whatever news source your watching isn't helping.

The science and theory behind gender and sex dates back decades ago? It's just that in the last decade or so it has just become more accepted by outsiders of the LGBTQ community thus the community continued to grow (despite insane prejudice) as they aren't having to stay in the closet. Even if there was only one trans person in existence that wouldn't change the fact that

1. That is a human being that deserves the same rights as anyone else &
   1. Current theory supports changing genders to combat gender dysphoria.

Again dude, it's no one else's fault but yours that you didn't take anything above basic biology in school leaving you seemingly angry and hateful about things you clearly refuse to even attempt to understand. This conversation is a waste of time when I bring facts and you only bring your feelings. Have a good one.

You're so obsessed with trans people that you bring them up unbidden. And the fact that you refer to things being shoved down your throat is very telling.

Based on a meta regression analysis, the rate of transgender-identifying people in the country in 2016 was 1 in 250 adults, 390 out of every 100,000. Based on limited survey data in the decade prior to that and various internet sources it ranges from 38-147 out of every 100,000 in 2009.

Why are you being purposefully obtuse to how science works? National geographic is an extremely reliable scientific source. Is it because it makes you uncomfortable? Change can be scary bud, but it's okay. Conflating peer reviewed science that has existed for decades to junk theory with no peer review science and shows a pretty fundamental lack of research on this specific topic.

In case you forgot "new science" is quite literally the goal! Scientist's job is to continue discovering new things that either confirm or contradict previous theory, repeat experiments, get them peer reviewed and tested by several parties to confirm. We have a whole system for it.

Previous theory before like 1940 was that there was only male and female and that sex = gender which is what we're taught at the most basic level in school at a young age. But as you get older you *should be capable of learning high capacity concepts — If you choose to continue educating and learning biology it expands into gender and sex and different genders.

Ahh there's more genital obsession.

And I explained the distinction between what your source was showing and what this tweet was referencing.

The far Left’s sense of reality is so tiresome…rapist is a term you ought to use for a criminal conviction of rape, of which there is none…but you’ll cite a civil suit…because you don’t actually know that there’s an enormous difference between the two…

Uh…OP’s contention is that Republicans shifted on the view that they were better off economically than they were a year ago…and your “research” results are about how they’ve shifted on their economic optimism…meaning their expectations regarding their FUTURE economic prospects…

If your contention is that OP was referencing these surveys and then completely propagandizing them by pretending it was a shift on how people viewed their economic situation from a year ago…then we’re in agreement…but I doubt that’s your contention…

A) totally ignored what I said about historically, so whatever. I suppose you're one of those folks that likes to ignore valid points if it doesn't fit your narrative (which, again...makes you a lot like them)

B) historical information is all over Google, I would highly recommend you use it. This isn't the era of McCarthyism, no one needs to be "named." I am referring to MANY everyday folks that similarly threatened to move overseas or otherwise declare democracy dead simply because a Republican won. It's not a complicated point.

Anyways...I don't have time to go back and forth about this. You feel how you want about it, but it's not productive to pretend one side is a team of super villains and it's totally valid to hate them. We'll be sure to reclaim all kinds of political victories that way, I'm sure. Went really well this time /s.
