Pretty sure the goal of all political parties is to screw you in the arse, repeatedly, as hard as possible, for as long as you, the voter will tolerate it. It all comes down to which party feels better in your arse.

I disagree.

I find both sides to be quite illiberal. The republicans are the worst but sjws are no winners either.

Asking people not to be bigots is NOT requiring people to be liberal. No I do not and I will not tolerate bigotry or idiocy in the name of " political freedom". No you are not free to be for the oppression of people different from you and demand the world coddle your idiotic baseless beliefs then cry about being discriminated against.

Most politicians of all ilks have lost touch with the people. They don't campaign by meeting people and shaking hands, they buy TV time and have slick ads produced by professionals. The whole thing is run by the oligarchs, the 1% with billions and billions of dollars to spend buying elections. I don't give a damn what you call it, but we need government to be sensitive to the needs of the people, yet government is forcing able people into poverty, homelessness, and prison, and abandoning people who are ill so they die with minimal cost. The UN just criticized the US as having an inhumane health care system, but they should have criticized much more.

"It has adopted the republican way of thinking" - there is no republican way of thinking, my friend.

It is my belief that we are going down the wrong path by requiring everyone to be a liberal. Conflicting ideas can lead to better programs via compromise which has been missing in our government. We now see the republicans as suppressing liberal ideas and positions and this is a result of both sides not being able to compromise.Christianity among the republicans threatens many rights the liberals hold as personal decisions like abortion.The current administration is being boorish led by trumper.The liberals must stand their ground and defend it but it must not become boorish as the republicans have become.
