    Those other conservatives were only there because of the lies of the party.

    What kind of legislation did they pass?

    Abortion bans, protection of marriage acts, controlling sex ed in school, “patriot” acts that legalize spying on citizens, limits and controls on immigration, tax cuts and deregulation…

    They’ve ALWAYS been judgemental monsters. Stop buying their lies. They aren’t even using them any more.

        Honestly man, you just don’t understand how conservative the US is.

        Bernie Sanders is center-right on the world stage.

            Are you literally fucking stupid? I have never and will never support monarchy. The fact you think that after this seriously means your brain is fucking broken.

            I’m pushing against Republicans. I’m pushing against milk-toast Dems. I DO NOT support the CCP, Russia, or the USSR, because I’m not a fucking idiot that fetishizes authority.

            This conversation started by me telling you the Republicans have always been evil. Then you took offense at me explaining gow that is obvious, and then you responded with an ad hominem. Grow the fuck up you literal child.

              It’s not an ad hominem if it is both relevant to the topic and correct.

              I didn’t say you supported monarchy. I said that center-right group in Norway does. Bernie Sanders is not center-right in Europe

              Reading is FUNdamental

                Why are you strawmanning my point by comparing him to Norway alone? Why are you insisting that the prrsence of a right wing indicates they’re not further left than us? Are you denying the very existence of right wing people outside of the US?

                Remember: Many of those countries have proportional representation, so the mere presence of a ringht winger in a position of power is not an indication the entire place supports them.

                  You said he was center-right in Europe so I picked the ur-example of the progressive ideal in Europe to show you he is not, in fact, center-right.

                  Where in Europe do you believe Sanders is center-right, and in what ways are those countries indicative of the EU as a whole?

                  You specifically mention the world stage - do you believe most of the world is more or less progressive than the EU?

                  You accuse me of strawmanning, but unlike you, I’m actually responding to things you say and not shit I make up. Scroll up and read the thread man.
