Why do people keep shaming others for being republican?

[Tinana]

I’m not American but it’s so weird seeing people argue about political parties. They make it seem like it’s a state of being when it’s simply just politics and doesn’t equate to someone being a good person or not. I have no idea what being republican is about so don’t come for me it’s just an observation.

[Stoner710]

So it has to do with democrats wanting to spread fear in the country and like to call us bigots when we’re just using what we think as common sense. What American conservatives tend to believe is that America is a good country yes we do any some issues in our past like Jim Crow and slavery but for the most part we are a good country that has influenced the world into becoming better. We believe in hard work limited government low taxes and abolishing the welfare state and preserving our American tradition like the right to bear arms he idea freedom of speech and religion the idea of preserving definition so we’ve had for millenniums.

for example we recognize the difference between the statement Black Lives Matter and the organization Black Lives Matter of course we agree to Black Lives Matter all lives matter this is why we say all lives matter because it doesn’t matter if you’re black white Asian Mexican whatever your wife matters. Now what the democrats party has embraced is a Marxist ideology. Black Lives Matter the organization has taken an obvious statement Black Lives Matter and turned in into if you don’t agree with the organization Black Lives Matter which has embraced Marxism your now a bigot and a racist because they assume we don’t think Black Lives Matter. Even though we disagree with the ideology behind the organization rather then the statement it’s self.

we also don’t believe men can be women, we don’t think a penis is a female sex Oregon because it’s not. The democrats in this country now can’t even define what a women is because they have embraced gender theory which is the idea that men and women are 100% the same (we are not) and so gender no longer is a polite word for sex it now is construed with psychology and how you feel inside rather then the reality on the ground. It’s all designed to divide the country and quite frankly break up the country because they think we’re evil and they don’t want to share country fest and we have as republicans are tired of dealing with these people and frankly agree with a national divorce. Which no one knows how that would work so we stay in a bad relationship with the Democratic Party and just insult each other when it’s convenient

[DarkWinterNights]

Actually in America, Conservatives and Leftists live very different lives and increasingly have little in common, which is why the division is so hateful and borderline violent. The “othering” is leading toward a civil conflict that will likely envelope the entire country.

[Paige90]

I don't shame anyone for being Republican as I think their ideas and platform are a lot more mainstream than the democrats which I don't agree with on anything!

[Anonymous]

I vote for whose ideas are best. Trump won, because his party wasn't for open borders. and neither am I

2,000,000 illegals came in in Joey's first year in office.

@Sabretooth

I get that you're lonely and no one wants to talk to you, but neither do I.

[nachosaresexy]

Anyone straight up *proud* to be a Dem or Repub is why America is gradually fading amongst the globally connected 21st century.

For anyone who doesn't live in America, the political landscape involves two large parties, mostly made up of crusty old people clinging to money & power who will literally do anything to keep the support of corporations and the money those corporations bring to spam gullible voters.

[Guy13]

Each side, both Rep and Dem, has Interest groups associated with them and people are absorbed by their beliefs. There’s so much to life but so many people fail to enjoy it. They rather focus upon the minutia they feel rather than think, seek life, or engage someone different from them. They are usually so boring anyway…

[Airii]

Yes, people are too attached to their echo chambers to see different perspectives. It's disheartening, really

[nachosaresexy]

@Airii ding ding ding. People like to belong to something, the two most common examples in murrrican society being a religion or political party. Give the repubs credit for figuring out that if they could sink their hooks into the main religious establishment of murrrica, they could start to form a walmart or amazon of the political system.

[globetrotter22]

It’s because the democrats had some major victories in the last few years and they just want more and more and more. Also our mass media, entertainment industries, tech companies and now even sports teams have gone wildly left.

However most Americans aren’t as liberal as the what Hollywood wants you to believe.

[Anonymous]

These people generally have been conned into believing the democratic party is the champion of the working class. The LACK of leadership that the Republican party exhibits at times makes it easier for any disenfranchised to be seduced by this farce.
The real truth is both parties are trying to better the countries through their own ideals. Both do move the country forward (albeit at a snails pace). At tremendous waste and bureaucracy.

Welcome to America! 🤣

[AimeeKyle]

It hasn’t always been like this or at least to this extreme. There are always disagreements and finger pointing but at the end of the day the politicians worked together to get things done. From my POV the tearing down / negativity began 2007-2010….. It’s unfortunate. Maybe one day people will communicate and understand each other’s POV vs make assumptions based on social media propaganda (from all sides).

[Sixgunsound]

Because in the United States the powers that be are dependent for their literal survival on keeping us fighting each other so we don’t see who the real enemy is.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

At this point anyone that supports the Republican or Democrat political party should be shamed.

America's politics is complete ish. Both major political parties govern for their cooperate donors, and not the average American man or woman.

[WhiteBoyChill]

That’s not true. You have the establishment Republicans and the anti-establishment Republicans

[John_Doesnt]

Because in America if you're not with us you're against us.

[H8INCHES]

Because it's part of the Marxist play book. If you discourage the right from speaking and taking action, the left can bulldoze over them and their concerns and desires. Shout them down is one of there biggest weapons.

[H8INCHES]

Leftists want a socialist, authoritarian government that allows them to stay in power permanently. So they can dictate our lives as they see fit. They want to guide our actions based on their beliefs and desires, not our own.

[motownplayer2000]

Why they shame and slander each other. It’s sickening. They act like either party has there best interest at heart. When they are both two sides of the same coin. I don’t trust either of them or there followers

[EyeKnowMeNahYou]

When it comes to politics people will shame each other hell politicians seeing each other for their policies and how they do things

[Cubus]

Because the world has gone very much to the left in last 30 years. Before that world was more right-wing (fighting against Soviet Union and left-wing communism)

[lofii]

All the shaming is from the "tolerant left"

Shaming you to vote blue cause you're poor and black lol

Imagine voting for people who say that shit.

[FilmGuy93]

There's been a push for a really long time to shame anyone for thinking intolerant thoughts.

[Dargil]

Because they want to feel good about themselves in their fraternity of losers.

[Anonymous]

It’s pretty remarkable but in America people believe that how you vote is indicative of your worth and goodness as a human being. It’s sick.

[888theGreat]

Anyone that supports abortion is not a good person , but an evil person. Democrats love abortion.

[nachosaresexy]

What advice would an old coot such as yourself offer to a couple in this type of situation? (I realize there's no way you'll actually read the whole thing)

[Sabretooth]

because the Republican Party is a cult of hateful and stupid individuals.

[ObscuredBeyond]

It's a confused conglomeration of frustrated and wronged souls seeking justice against Democrat atrocities, but placing faith in a false savior, as the GOP has the same foreign corporate donors.

The DNC's pure, dripping evil deserves to be hated. But Republican voters also love their children. Enough to want a functional southern border to keep out foreign psychopaths that would kill their children for fun. That way, police aren't overwhelmed dealing with that and also with domestic crime.

They want elected officials held accountable for their actions, to have a republic, not an oligarchy. Fools in the DNC can't wrap their heads around what that means, and blindly believe a script full of lies from the 1970s about what the point of Republicans happens to be. Except the narrative is not only false on every level, it's also really outdated. Democrats are permanently stuck in the 1970s, mentally. They have never had a truly good idea since Jimmy Carter slithered the Oval Office.

Yet, many voters foolishly think the likes of Dan Crenshaw can be trusted to turn things around morally. They're trading one wolf for another.

[Sabretooth]

@ObscuredBeyond you've been keeping up with the current events, correct?

[ObscuredBeyond]

Enough to know that Crenshaw can't be trusted.

[Sabretooth]

@ObscuredBeyond we agree on that.

[ObscuredBeyond]

I've been a little distracted this past week. I invented a government waste rating calculator and algorithm several years ago, and want to turn it into an Android and iphone app. The road to becoming an Apple developer, however, is a very frustrating one.

[Sabretooth]

@ObscuredBeyond all politcs is bull shit... Just now, we got a group of deranged crazies running around.

[Anonymous]

Because their afraid of their narrative being challenged
