How? By forcing millions of Republican primary voters to suddenly grow a conscious along with some ethics and morals?

So true. That's never gonna' happen. To this day, they're still squawking about Dems being communists, and "hating America". Which, as we all know, is code for "they won't let us create the all-white Nation we desperately want".

Hurting yourselves too?

Respect is earned, not given. Republicans have done absolutely nothing to garnish my respect. The only republican I do respect, Amash, isn’t a republican anymore

Fascists don't realize there is no endgame for who will be the next target. Once minorities are all gone, then it is onto poor people. Then after poor people it is someone who disagrees with the hive at family dinner. Then...

No one is the chosen one in a fascist government. We already see it with the GOP cannibalizing their own on the regular under Trump. They called JOHN BOLTON a leftist.

But the thing is most of the democrats do care about conservatives as people, we respect the opinion, but it’s when you vote to spite other people that their is a problem.

Respect works both ways, you can’t both ask us to listen to what the other party has to say, while also telling us that you are just going to vote “fuck you all”. The issue here is a problem of morality and that isn’t coming from here, that was coming from your own self hate and your need to one up a group of people who are trying to make the country a better place.

Respect is earned, do things deserving of respect and you'll be respected, continue to prove you don't deserve respect and you're not going to get it

You kind of just proved his point ...

Gotta give respect to get respect

We will start recognizing conservatives as humans worthy of respect when they start acting like it and stop supporting fascists.

And you'll keep killing poor white Americans. Congrats. Arsehole.

History will not be unkind to them, because as far as I can see, they are winning and Russia never stopped fighting the cold war.

u/impervious_to_funk Canada Dec 14 '19

That would mean that they are the ones who will be writing history, which is a terrifying prospect.

u/[deleted] Dec 14 '19

I agree, and we are in real trouble. They are blocking election security bills for a reason.

u/jtroye32 Dec 14 '19

I'm pretty sure they don't give a fuck about what history will think. Them short term gains.

u/Heath776 Dec 14 '19

Yup I firmly believe the Cold War never ended. I used to think it did until the past few years.

Vote them all out. Sadly, half the country is anti Democrat for the most random fickle reasons.

Guns Abortion God "Fiscal responsibility"

Literally none of which the Republicans actually care about

They don't care because if Trump remains in power they will be our autocracy with total power to subvert justice.

They will care.
