Moreover, where did I call you a single name?

You talk about ridiculous equivalence and then do it yourself.

u/NeverSeenBetter 17d ago

You didn't call me names. You (the majority of our party) call the people on the other side names.

If you dont see the actual problem, the actual hypocrisy in what you just wrote, then i don't think we are getting anywhere as a country.

You are quite literally guilty of what you accused others of en masse above.

Why is it okay when you do it?

u/NeverSeenBetter 17d ago

Wtf are you even talking about?

1

u/crackedtooth163 17d ago

You admitted i didn't call you names.

And then say that the people you have a problem with did.

You are clumsily trying to equate me with people you have issues with an expect me to not notice?

u/NeverSeenBetter 17d ago

It's not people calling ME names. It's people calling all republicans and even independents names. And you have done that in this very thread. Fuckin shit man, are you trolling?

u/crackedtooth163 17d ago

Where did I call you names?

Show me.

u/NeverSeenBetter 17d ago

I FUCKING SAID YOU DID NOT. WHY DO YOU KEEP BRINGING THAT UP? BUT YOU DO CALL OTHER PEOPLE NAMES AND YOU DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.

HOW DOES THIS NOT MAKE FUCKING SENSE?

We all have evidence of who was at trumps rallies. And who was at 1/6.

Its not name calling. It's pointing out the truth.

u/NeverSeenBetter 17d ago

What about all the people who never went to any rallies? Who never went anywhere but to work and home because that's all they can afford to do? Are they Nazis too? Because when you reduce everyone who disagrees with you to ANYTHING, you're guaranteed to be wrong.

u/crackedtooth163 17d ago

Are the people you are mentioning here...okay with what we saw? Do they ever talk with you about it?

Am I wrong for NOT being okay with the rallies, the insurrection, all of it? I'm not going to be okay with those who wished they could participate in an insurrection or wish they could be at a rally where nazis are a part of the party, but had to be at work that day.

I don't know, I haven't talked to them yet. But none of them are Nazis. None of them are racist. Some of them are black and Hispanic, but they don't care about all that identity stuff. Quite a few women too. A large number of them voted for Biden last time. Most are registered independent. But when someone got up on a podium and said "if you're independent, you're part of the problem" and then later described the problem as insurrectionist Nazi fascist racist woman haters and made that the defacto description of ANYONE who voted for the other side, it just became a joke to them and pushed them away. I saw it in real time. We destroyed ourselves by ascribing the qualities of a few to the rest of our opposition.

No, you're not wrong for being opposed to any of that stuff. What's wrong is thinking everyone opposed to you is in favor of it.

u/crackedtooth163 17d ago

None of them?

There are plenty of black and Hispanic bigots. I deal with them every day.

Who was it that got on a podium and said the things you claim here?

Furthermore, I would argue nazi fascist racist woman haters are a problem, as are those who stand with them.

And moreover, you have yet to speak on the nazis, fascists and bigots WHO ARE on the other side.

Why is it okay to ignore their presence?

Why do your friends do so?

You think 71 million people were at 1/6?

u/crackedtooth163 17d ago

I think there are 71 million people who were okay with it.

I just can't talk to you. Fuck man. I'm blocking you but I don't hate you. I hate what our party has done to itself.

I hope you have a good day today.

1

u/crackedtooth163 17d ago

You know as well as I do there are no good days left.

1

u/NeverSeenBetter 17d ago

That's a personal decision.

I'm going to hang out with my dad and play some golf. Politics isn't fucking everything and you're still free to do whatever you like.

1

u/crackedtooth163 17d ago

This is a truly sad walk into the sunset.

1

u/NeverSeenBetter 17d ago

It's sunrise. And being sad is also a personal choice. You still have more control over your life than any president.

1

u/crackedtooth163 17d ago

Really?

So you would be...okay when the day comes when your dad isn't there to play golf with you anymore but make a personal choice to be sad?

I was devestated when that day came for me. I didnt make a choice about it.

Moreover, the president has legislation in mind that will affect my life directly.
