It will probably get through as me and my friends are in camps thinking that at least this would have happened with Harris anyways. Im sure she was all about getting rid of due process and shipping citizens to El Salvador.

But its cool. You guys are gonna have that revolution any day now. I hear theres all sorts of plans already.

Edit: In fact, lets just go back to the image

Dems block going left

Repubs ratchet to the right

So when the republicans dont have power, do the dems do it for them? I mean I know they dont do enough to stop them. No disagreements. But if we never elected a republican in office again, and they never had either of the 3 branches, and they didnt control any state, we would still be going right.

Im not asking would they still block us going left

But do you think we would stop progressing as a country?

Cause going through hundreds of years, theres actual quite a few things we actually have progressed with. Like look at us in the queer community. When I was graduating high school in 08, I thought we were still so much further out from same sex marriage. And then once people focused on trans people, I thought we were still even further out from the dems helping them.

But yet over time they did move forward. Dont Ask Dont Tell was still dog shit. But it was something. Then it became queer people were allowed in. Period.

So even just in my life and my community I have seen progress. Its slow. It is. Its painfully slow. But its progress

So if we never had republicans in power we would suddenly stop that? Am I wrong about my community slowly becoming more and more accepted over the decades?

Or does me just knowing my communities history and celebrating where we have gotten make me a liberal?

Literally admitting to wanting to keep or create concentration camps (as long as it doesn't affect you or your friends).. you and the other Team Blue libs are fucking neo-nazi psychos..

The person your replying to didn't say anything like that. Your just ranting for no fucking reason.

Was the first sentence of the person I'm replying to not enlightening enough, or does someone have to hand you the explanation on a silver platter?

We get it. Everyone you don't like is a nazi.
