Too bad (too many) former Republicans promote the anti-socialism stance of the so-called libertarians.. Same garbage, minus the religion

The nation is screwed up royal -- due to the loss of it’s Fairness Doctrine - the only thing having prevented the one-sided propaganda networks currently feeding our single-minded poorly educated lock-step followers…

Hope for recovery is slim, though. It would take a revised Supreme Court, and I’m afraid our militant opposition is incapable of accepting that.

The word "socialism" is a scare word used by conservatives for the past hundred years. I have no clue what they think that word means but I imagine that they think something quite loony.... probably involving gulags and bread lines or some such nonsense. Who knows?

I know quite a few conservatives and one thing I've noticed about them... it's simply how they think. If it's a problem that effects someone else but not them, then they don't care. If something helps them but hurts others, they don't care. If something helps others more than it helps them they are usually against it.

Also, conservatives seem to think they know more/better than experts, economists, scientists, and doctors regardless of their own education level or understanding of the problem/issue.

I see these qualities over and over in conservative co-workers, family members, friends, and people online.

. . . the "tax and spend Democrats" dog-whistle worked well in the past.
