To some fanfare, Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign today launched Republicans for Harris, which will kick off with events this week in the swing states of Arizona, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania. Their goal, campaign officials told Zeke Miller of the Associated Press, is to make it easier for Republican voters put off by Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump to back Democratic presidential nominee Harris. Curiously, though, in their embrace of the nation’s growing democratic coalition, Republicans crossing the aisle in 2024 are returning to their party’s origins.

The Republican Party itself began as a coalition that came together to stand against an oligarchy whose leaders were explicit about their determination to overthrow democracy. As wealth had accumulated in the hands of a small group of elite southern enslavers, those men had turned against American democracy. “I repudiate, as ridiculously absurd, that much-lauded but nowhere accredited dogma of Mr. Jefferson, that ‘all men are created equal,’” South Carolina senator James Henry Hammond said.

When Democrats tried to call those coming together as Republicans “radicals,” rising politician Abraham Lincoln turned the tables by standing firm on the Declaration of Independence. “[Y]ou say you are conservative—eminently conservative—while we are revolutionary, destructive, or something of the sort,” he said, addressing the Democrats who remained determined to base the United States in enslavement.

“What is conservatism? Is it not adherence to the old and tried, against the new and untried? We stick to, contend for, the identical old policy on the point in controversy which was adopted by ‘our fathers who framed the Government under which we live’; while you with one accord…spit upon that old policy, and insist upon substituting something new…. Not one of all your various plans can show a precedent or an advocate in the century within which our Government originated.”

So there's been a number of times on here where a woman will say something to the effect of 'It's ok to look but NOT stare!' and then guys will come around and say 'its my RIGHT to stare so i will do as i please.'

And i roll my eyes every time. To those dudes on here we are not talking about your RIGHTS or what you legally can or can't do when a woman says this. She is talking about 'acceptable' vs 'unacceptable' behavior. and if you leer at a woman it's considered RUDE. yeah you CAN do that as in legally you have every right to do so, but it is RUDE to do so. there's a difference between something being illegal and something being rude (but legal).

For instance its also legal to openly and audibly fart around strangers, spit on the ground right in front of people, chew with your mouth open around people... and guess what? Those things if you do them you are considered a RUDE person for doing it.

Leering at a woman sexually you don't know is also rude... and also creepy too. So please Try your hardest not to be rude please.

If you're confused by the difference between glancing vs staring here you go:

Glancing

Staring
