Yes, Democrats and Republicans drink the Kool Aid and live in echo chambers. They are convinced that their side is not only correct, but their thinking is totally normal. Their opponents are wrong and crazy and stupid and abnormal. It's party loyalty something we used to condemn communists for, but Americans practice it too.sikacz wrote: Sun Feb 27, 2022 11:09 amThat doesn't really make the dems very attractive. Voting for a lesser evil doesn't bring about a change in thinking. It just seems to reinforce bad policies. Need to shift to an alternative then. The argument is getting old, every election cycle it's the same, "at least we're not republicans" only goes so far in my opinion. I voted dem primary, but I'm not enthusiastic about their likely candidates in November.highdesert wrote: Sun Feb 27, 2022 10:53 amsikacz wrote: Sat Feb 26, 2022 8:46 amI’m wondering what will get their attention.highdesert wrote: Fri Feb 25, 2022 10:29 pm
I suspect that will be my problem in June, too many gun grabbers with a "D" after their names.
They are so brain washed with fear of firearms, I'm not sure what would get their attention. They're like Trumpers, they are beyond reason it's all emotion with no room for logical discussions.
I have to wait and see who gets nominated for the June primary, I'll probably have a lot of blank box on my ballot too.
