Common traits

• Atheist or Agnostic with a disdain/hostility towards Christians and Jews but a sympathizer towards Muslims
• Doesn't believe illegal immigration exists (the "No one is illegal" mindset)
• Centers their disdain towards white men
• Justifies US colonization a few hundreds of years ago as a reason to allow open borders
• A firm believer of Critical Race Theory and DEI practices that places blame on white people (especially white men) for their "privilege".
• Are avid supporters of identify politics, voicing affirmative action and equity for classes of people other than those who are white or male (often also ignoring or sidelining the disabled and the psychologically and developmentally impaired classes of people in the process of promoting other classes)
• Supports abortion, even if it means at the taxpayer's expense and a faith-based institution must provide it to their employees when it goes against the faith of that institution
• Rainbow people rights supercede religious rights
• Ban guns, even from law-abiding citizens
• Against self-defense and stand-your-ground, even when a gun is not used as a defense weapon in the process. You must flee instead of fight.
• Freedom of speech only if it isn't "offensive" (that is an oxymoron by the way)
• A woman's accusation towards a man is justification for prosecution without his due process rights.
• Only white people can be racist

While everyone was distracted by whether trannies can use the girl's bathroom or play in women's sports, our public safety infrastructure was crumbling. We are in the midst of a nationwide volunteer firefighter shortage. Most fire departments are volunteer-run.

In Tennessee alone, 42 percent of fire departments are classified as either "at-risk" or "distressed". 500 of the nearly 700 fire departments in Tennessee are ran by volunteers. 97.9 percent of Tennessee counties have ambulance deserts. Volunteer firefighters and rescue squad crews often provide EMS first response, aiding the critically ill or injured until ambulance crews arrive. They are an important part of the EMS system too. Meanwhile, leftist policies have displaced many Northerners and Californians towards Tennessee. We are the 15th most populous state now.

We forget about the basics while shifting focus to stupid shit, like the rainbow people and race-based politics.

Have one election, no primaries, and the top vote-getters go to Washington as the state’s representatives. It would result in wildly more diverse delegations, more moderates representing a wider range of ages, races and political beliefs than we have in Congress.

Rural voters wouldn’t lose “their” representatives under this system any more than urban voters would. In fact, all voters would be more represented, not less. For example, each Pennsylvanian would go from having three representatives to having 19. And each member could cultivate a statewide constituency based on political orientation, social beliefs and moral reasoning rather than geography.

Electing all the representatives at large would make all the districts in each state the same size. More important, it would end the redistricting wars that bedevil us only after the census but now seem destined to become a permanent & ugly fixture of American politics.

If each state chose its representatives in a single statewide election, the result would be a House of Representatives truly representative of the people. Smaller parties would finally stand a chance of winning a seat at the table. The two major parties would be forced to enter coalitions, which would require compromise and moderation — qualities sorely lacking.

Critics will insist that the House is no place for the 17th-place finisher. Perhaps. But could the resulting Congress be any more dysfunctional than the current one?

A single-vote, winners-take-all system would remove party politics and geography from the process. Representatives would represent people with shared ideologies, not some artificially constructed “district” where half the voters feel their representative is not representative of their beliefs.

For example, there aren’t enough socialists or libertarians in any one congressional district in PA to win a seat. But maybe there are enough socialists or libertarians statewide to enable a candidate to finish in the top 17.

I have a huge disdain for leftists, liberals, democrats, or whatever they are now. They seem to favor and obsess over radical social engineering, identity politics, and want to demonize or ostracize those who don't fall into their their woke nonsense. They are the type that cause you to lose your job or livelihood just because you used the wrong "pronoun". They are the ones who push for Critical Race Theory (CRT), DEI, and including schoolchildren in their wacko beliefs. They want to fund genital mutilation for kids and let illegal aliens roam freely without consequences. They want you to pay for abortions. They want you to foot the bill for migrants. Then, they want to throw the book at you if you are too persistent with women, claiming it is "harrassment" or "stalking" for staring more than a few seconds. These are crazy and rabid people who hate Christians and Jews but will roll out the red carpet for Muslims and anyone who isn't white.

Then you have the hard-core right, who loves police officers but shits on their firefighters and EMS personnel (at least here in my state). Fire and EMS is often treated second-class, is not considered much in legislation, and is disregarded in many situations. My state is one of only 10 that doesn't have enhanced penalties for assaulting a firefighter or EMT, but the recent "Back the Blue" Act enhanced these penalties for assaulting a cop, leaving out firefighters and EMTs with this legislation. 42 percent of fire departments in my state are classified by the state Fire Marshal's office as either "At-Risk" or "Distressed". There are no incentives for volunteers. There is no appeal process for sanctions against EMS personnel licenses, which can stem from a single complaint. My state also experiences an issue with hospital closures and infrastructure issues due to a large influx of new residents from out-of-state and lack of funding. The attitude of a lot of Republicans, sadly, is that if it doesn't affect them in the current mome
