Republicans and Fascism

[wewonby6points]

Someone once said politics is a trap. Who ever said that could well be right judging by what's going on in todays world. Just look at the comparisons to the Roman empire and now - very similar.

Same results in certain aspects, and if those aspects are what you value/abhor, I can understand why they would look the same. Both parties are clearly pro-corporate, pro-military, and have leaders who crave power and will engage in unfair practices (gerrymandering, voting rules, etc.) to maintain it.

In other aspects, they are very different. I hope you'll understand this means that I see a huge difference between them.

The results of when each side has been in power positions tells a different story. Nothing has really changed for the people we care for or even the interest groups you or your side champion. It doesn’t matter who is in power, the same stuff happens.

The rhetoric to get there is different and you pretend it’s different, but the results are the same. The blame game is the same too. The corruption is the same. The greed, lies, and corruption is the same on both sides. All/most can be bought.

Death by accidental angry blow to the head and death by shooting is all the same to me, gets to the same end. (I can’t tell which is which scenario.) I’m sure it’s a world of difference to some of you though. That’s how I see it. Go ahead and see it different though.

Nitpick all you want, both parties always end up in the same place. The people end up in a worse spot every time.

I never bullied a soul. Not once. I laid into my wife a lot, because she thought like people like you think- just laugh it all off, eff the CDC, yada, yada, yada. Now she’s dead, from Covid 19.

Sorry to hear that. Wish you the best my friend.

That's so sad. So sorry to hear this.

yada, yada, yada.

That is horrible. Thinking good thoughts for you.

I see much more acceptance for some people/groups I advocate for, and see a pendulum swinging for others. Overall, there has not been much net movement, but much more movement. I agree with you on the net movement.

That’s just big picture imo. There are good people in both groups but man it’s messy.
