[Ban my account ffs!]

The thrashing poisonous outbursts of a cornered, dying snake...conservatism in 2019 America.

Conservatism isn't going anywhere. They'll just rebrand themselves.

Inb4 Fuzzy comes and says that he disagrees but they have a point.

Yes, like the reptiles that they are, they will shed their old skin and leave it where it drops.

No more bipartisan

lmao what

[IceSpear]

Remember when Obama was president and the pundits constantly excoriated for him for not engaging in enough "bipartisan" wankery? Good times. Where have these pundits been lately?

[Sestak]

Not really a surprise tbh.

At least the Republicans are being honest about their rabid hatred of the left

[Middle-aged Europe]

What if someone emerges within that movement one day who tries to bring this line of thinking to its logical conclusion?

Probably the same thing as if someone takes the "Republicans are Nazis" talking point to its logical conclusion.

BOTH SIDES DO IT.

And what large, prominent and well influenced left-ish organization (ie like CPAC), have you seen (heard from) that says to the entire nation that "all Republicans are Nazis?"

This. This is exactly what I keep harping on. Yes the left has nut jobs but the problem is that the nut jobs on the right get power within the movement. For God sakes the president is a birther, at the height of anti-Bush hysteria the democrats didn’t promote let alone nominate for president someone from the “Bush was behind 9/11” crowd. The “both sides do it” blue atlas need to come to terms with the issue that the Republican Party as a institution (with help from Fox and talk radio) has mainstream the fringes of their movement and the inmates are running the asylum.

[Suburbia]

Both ideologies hate each other.

Ideologies don't die---it is a belief.

The problem is that the progressive response is to go hard left on everything. That makes it harder for centrists to say "yeah, the GOP has gone too far for me, I'll vote Democratic until they return to sanity." Let's not pretend a huge contingent of folks have been bashing Dems to "go, go left" nonstop for 15 years.

Voters do not think like that, Beet

I’m sorry I must of missed were the Democratic Party was calling for seizing land and redistributing it to the poor? Like you can read someone like JA’s post a legitimately think the sounds anything like how the Democratic Party acts and feels?

You guys want to destroy our culture, surrender our national sovereignty, and destroy every western tradition, and take our guns while at the same time looking down your noses at these people with nothing but contempt.

So yeah, you are the enemy.

Trump has done more to subvert the 2nd amendment than Obama.

(Because Dem hacks totally don't think this about Pubs)

But seriously Charlie shut up this isn't helpful
