    I recognize your username, I don’t think I’ve ever had any pleasant interactions with you and now here you are telling me to listen to an appeal for the 21st century nazi party.

      What part of the comment you’re complaining about is saying good things about Republicans?

      Or did you stop after seeing they put it in?

        Conservative =/= Republican. Some of the perceptions in the US are skewed so far to the right that you don’t even realise how conservative the Democratic Party is.

        Intentional or not this paragraph is a defence of the Republican party, ans I fully believe it is intentional. The only way conservatives like this can feel any sense of justification is to bring their enemies down to their level.

          No this is showing how we don’t have a left party in the usa while people are worried Mamdani will end up like Obama did after the DNC gets more involved.

          Being critical of how the dems are failing the country is vital, not something that makes one instantly a conservative.

            Complete ignorance of policy to say the DNC aren’t left and the GOP aren’t hardcore right.

                They’re left in the sense that they expand medical coverage, tax the rich, regulate industries, and promote solutions to climate change.

                  Cool, still on the right of rest of the world on all those things. See they use of Romenycare instead of going for Medicare for all or universal healthcare

      You need to try and read first before replying, then maybe I’d have better things to say about you. You can’t expect me to praise you for either being thickheaded enough to not get what people are actually saying or for misrepresenting what people are saying because you don’t have an actual argument, can you?
