In the '90s and early '00s, the parties had distinct ideologies.

Now, they really don't. Now they're not held together by any unifying principle beyond "the other party sucks."

Twenty years ago, the left would have been casting the principled "protest vote" against war. Today, they feel like they're the only adults in the room and if they don't stand up to Putin, he'll just gleefully conquer all of eastern Eurasia.

their own country has homeless people on the streets and people dying of hunger.

We have a lot of homeless, but they tend to be mentally ill and/or drug addicts who are simply not capable of maintaining a residence.

No one is dying of hunger. That isn't a thing.

"oday, they feel like they're the only adults in the room and if they don't stand up to Putin" lol, have you always been this retarded or only after joining the democrat party?, only in the minds of the brandon voting imbeciles does puting has the resources to conquer anything besides small former USSR shitholes, and even if he did conquer Eurasia, so fucking what? fuck those shitholes incapable of defending themselves, those american dollars could be used as toilet paper and still be better spent

I'm not a partisan or even a registered voter. People with political parties can't maintain their objectivity.

even if he did conquer Eurasia, so fucking what?

And, yeah, I'm sensing you're definitely not an adult in the room.

"im not a democrat, just aligned with democrats" and "doing what democrats want is a adulthood", let me guess, public school in democrat shithole?

On Saidit, everyone thinks I'm aligned with Democrats. On Discuit, everyone thinks I'm aligned with Republicans.

When your brain has been infected by partisanship, anyone who isn't similarly infected feels like the enemy.

Yeah, using "Brandon" is a pretty clear sign that you have no interest in ever thinking for yourself. You'll just let your betters tell you what to believe. It's easier and it's more comfortable.

"You'll just let your betters tell you what to believe." ironic coming from a democrat

Not a Democrat.

Whereas you... just use whatever words your betters are using. As soon as Bill Posey and Greg Abbott and Jeff Duncan started saying Brandon, you were just clapping along like a trained seal.

If you like sodomy and murder, you should be a democrat.

It you like treason and tyranny, you should be a republican.
