Even though this would be a win for all Americans – and humanity – it apparently did not outweigh the politics of making a Democrat look good. This is the definition of party over country.
I’m a doctor.So is my mother. When she got cancer, I realized how little that mattered.
Republicans have stated budget cuts need to be made with an ever-growing debt. But where was this attitude when tax cuts for the wealthy were on the table in 2017? They don’t have to look at patients in the eye and break the devastating news that they have cancer. They don’t have to treat cancers that block intestines or drown a patient’s lungs in fluid.
The GOP should be banned by decree and being conservative should be illegal.
This is just what MAGA wants, but reversed…
You’re not going to fix Fascism by making wrongthink a crime.
That would not be democratic. It would be the exact same thing the GOP wants to do. Left branded totalitarianism would still be totalitarianism.
Between left-branded totalitarianism and GOP I choose left-branded totalitarianism. An eye for an eye.
A fan of the USSR I see…
Totalitarianism is bad, period. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. It would not be any better in the long run.
You know what? Don’t give a shit at this point. I’m tired of conservative and right-wing stooges fucking everything up, and I think it’s time we give them their own medicine. Ban their medias, ban their parties and if they dare lift a finger send the whole fucking National Guard against them.
Oh I’m dead tired of it too, I can assure you, but banning a party is not an actionable solution; heavy regulation for polititians and political parties is:
in terms of the donations they can and can’t receive, the behaviour they need not to engage in, requiring a perfectly clean record (that includes corruption as well) and so on. Decisions should be backed by science and not ideology, religious discourse that isn’t about inclusion should be banned. Oh and no more lobbying for crying out loud.
Hopefully the new supreme court reform gets the US one step further towards that.
I with all this also was a purely American issue, but alas… Europe has to deal with all this crap as well…
Nope, too fucking slow. Banhammer it is.
Also, I am European and I would apply the same solution to our continent too.
That makes as much sense as a cure for cancer does.
this is what they want. Raising taxes on rich people and capping tax exemptions for large religious institutions are the things they’re afraid of.
Again, the solution is: ban those religious and conservative institutions.
The problem with leftists on perfect display here. On the one side you have people who actively want to murder everyone who isn’t a white Christian and on our side we have people saying “hey, don’t say mean words to them, we’re better than that!” We need a civil war and for leftists to go back to killing Nazis.
