@OzzyAussieOtty Rightwingers are slowly coming to terms with what the heat map shows. It isn't even controversial, the right is more on board with not caring about treating others fairly. That's why many push that the heat map shows priorities instead of extent of care as described.
@Yeenie_Mcbeenie It's why many rightwing people don't like being called rightwing. People on the right often try to adopt libertarian vibes and genuine fascists also try to spin themselves as being the "peace and freedom" option. Most people like woke, it's just that good things aren't "based".
@ScottJenningsKY "Dog won't hunt"? We say dogmaxxing or dogmogging now and if you don't know the difference you don't know the people of the great state of Texas.
@Republicans Why would they be happy? It's an uphill battle against moneyed interests. If capitalism was about profits shared among workers and values given to consumers, if so much wasn't funneled to a few, people would be happier generally and capitalism would be more popular.
@mcsquared34 We've had 10 years of MAGA calling Hillary "far left" when in the 90s the Clintons were on Reagan's side about deregulation and were labeled centrist and Nixon made the EPA. Obama had one left leaning push with healthcare and suddenly dems are commies. Biden was kinda pro-union.
@DarkLaker@C354R23@TecnosanS Yes in the same way that anything monarchist is rightwing. Even if you make some bleeding heart liberal king or queen, you've shifted power away from the public, the workers, and to a noble family. Power to workers and the public is traditionally leftwing.
@AmericasBack1@HQNewsNow Dem or Rep, MSM handles presidents & politicians softly so they can retain access & be invited to press events and get interviews. Things are going especially bad for Trump and MAGA, to be soft with that is to be more dishonest than usual & add to that they demand more loyalty.
@rmc4az@JomedIowa@ConservFurry99 So the issue is that OP framed the issue as "you think he hates them when he just thinks being gay is wrong and bad". Seeing gay kissing and thinking they are alluding to his hate and not just his disagreement and advocacy against them is just a misreading of their intention.
@TheLeftIsNutz@dontcomprehendi@SensibleSimio@sleepy_devo You can't prove thousands and you're asking us to just imagine millions. It's been 10 years and two Trump terms. Not even Trump is as invested in this as you and TX republicans are desperate for anything yet they are hardly touching it. This is about you and your feelings.
@TheLeftIsNutz@dontcomprehendi@SensibleSimio@sleepy_devo That's not proof of "thousands" voting. Trump has been saying millions were voting for 10 years, since 2016. He put together a team on his first term to prove him right. They couldn't so he quietly disbanded them. But the damage was done, as you're showing.
@emeriticus@MattPolProf James Lindsey's Manifesto for the Based, written in 2021, should be part of the autopsy. Someone from the online right writing at length about how they need to lean more into 4chanification and be anti-empathy to be "based" is part of what led to this.
@CrusaderBear333@TheRealThelmaJ1 This is AI cherry picked information around the issue and your impression to go along with it. "If immigration is 0, human trafficking is 0" is as true as nuking a city to remove a city's gang problem. Obama's "kids in cages" was for temporary holding to fight child trafficking.
@CrusaderBear333@TheRealThelmaJ1 What's the source on this? This would be the bigger story, but even Fox News was tripping over the "caravans of asylum seekers are bringing over fentanyl" line of reasoning they couldn't back up.
@CalebRythem@esjesjesj Your "question" is tangential. Left vs right isn't defined by the ability to speak truth, it comes from expanding vs consolidating power; it 1st came up as issues regarding the exclusive power of nobility. Women voting is an expansion of power that is controversial with the right
@AlbertonFreeman@mcsquared34 Public education focused more on the racism aspect of nazis. It doesn't go over striking unions causing so much trouble for investors they sided with nazis and went after strikes and socialists. Hugo Boss owned a factory and made the nazi uniform, a member since before 1930.
