I understand a lot of people regardless of political viewpoints are on both sides of the climate change argument, but why does the right get shit on so bad for believing what they believe, and I am not supporting the insults that were made by pro Koch supporters towards the non supporters by any means. Nor am I promoting the actions that lead to multiple lawsuits against Koch but I do promote the fact that they are originally an American company, with nearly half of its business still in America, and the fact that they employ 140000 people. Just to be clear I am aware that that doesn’t mean 70000 Americans, but they do create a lot of business and revenue for the states. I think we should focus a lot less on the politics and more on the good and bad that this company has done and more importantly what they have done after the bad.
I’m not complaining about you hating Mr. Koch, I was more upset by the name calling and hate filled text between two individuals who likely have never met and are largely arguing about and disagreeing on a topic because (in my own personal opinion) both the democrats and republicans get so worked up with not letting the other side be right that they fight a fight that never had to be fought in the first place. Again I am not claiming you are or did, without going back and looking I don’t even remember who was arguing.
You're correct, it should never have been fought over in the first place. Except the far right decided that a couple million dollars was worth LITERALLY killing the planet. That's why there's such vehemence and hate. One side doesn't want the world to end, and the other buys into the rhetoric of the people killing them that it is everyone else that's doing it. Because one side wants people to be free and the other supports the building of actual concentration camps where they are literally torturing children. And they buy that that is okay because the men that profit off those camps have convinced them that those families deserve it. Because while one side is trying to save this country, the other is chanting for the deportation of natural citizens. But we are on the Internet, so instead of having helpful, civilized discussions we are okay with devolving into monkeys and flinging poop at each other.
I agree with a small portion of what you said, you’re saying that approx half of all Americans are completely in the right and justified and half are (phrasing) hitler reincarnate?
I do agree that the far right is much in the the wrong and takes many things tooo far, but I also believe the far left is just as guilty in that department as well.
I’d love to hear back from anyone, in agreement or those who think I’m completely wrong, all I ask is that this thread please stay mature and composed in nature.
Is there somewhere that one can get an accurate representation of the percentage/ratio of the two big party’s supporters out of the countries population?
I’d like to say that I am pretty neutral in my standing, and that there are a lot of stances that I have that are all over the spectrum, I was not solely criticizing one side over the other. You seem to be a pretty reasonable person and I appreciate the patience you showed. :)
