There is a lot to fight for. The right has begun to dismantle every tent pole of progress that has been made over the last 100 years. Affectively eliminating black history from schools in red states, battering the liberty of the LBTGQ community, vilifying immigrants, and now attacking the heart of women's rights. Not to mention the right is taking over every state they can via gerrymandering. Trump's vision of an "America made great again" is coming true. I for one am frustrated the Democrats have not been more vigorous in fighting back against it.
Many D's want change, but don't have the weird cultish behavior/mindset that the R's have, when it comes to party affiliation or action. It's kind of embarrassing just how bad the right mobilizes their base vs the left. One uses the fear of god, the fear of losing their power, and the fear of the other, while the other uses "please vote for us".
No kidding. Some don't even want them (women) to have the ability/right to raise their own children. Friggin government.
Get ready for intellectual brain drain. Young intelligent people are not going to be staying in this shit hole of a nation.
Yeah, but thats WHAT they want. The 1950's was totally a day when you could be a high school graduate and make a good salary, tell women what they can do or not do, call them sluts if they slept with 1 guy before marriage, call black people "******", call Asians "******" and "****" and call jews "****". Oooh, good times ya'all, good times!
Pretty much. They want a caste system, with white men at the top, and everyone else below, and barely any room for people who are different but have to 100% agree with the power structure as they see it. And before anyone says "nuh uh, we believe in equality"...look up with "equal" means first, you guys don't want equality, you want subservience.
Yeah and that is scary. The Republicans have been working hard to turn every battleground state deep red via gerrymandering so the Democrats can't win again at the national level, why taking control of the state for good too.
Can I just say that I'm going to be really annoyed if protestors go out and tear up our city again. Go somewhere and tear up a conservative city if you're pissed about RvW.
The Ds are just Rs with a different sales pitch. This forces them to act somewhat more in the favor of the people, if for no other reason than to keep up appearances (this is actually the only reason, as far as I can tell). People will figure out how to do abortions and things will get worse until our leaders are forced to capitulate. Just like we've been dealing with on other issues. You're right. The Dems will not fix this until we force them to.
Can't afford to. Thanks to Dems capitulating to Rs for so long. If they do it they'll do it in the closest place they can get attention.
There is no better place to go. Everywhere else is going to have extremely high prices and pressure from immigrants fleeing climate disasters for the foreseeable future.
