This is good. Finally some push back on Bluesky. Rarely see that. I voted for Perot in my first election after he said ‘the thing about hate is, I don’t have time for it.’ Maybe you can support Trump and ICE and still be a kind, loving person. Common sense tells me it’s unlikely though.

You'd have to actually have common sense first. You need push back. Whether you like it or not, the democrat party has gone too far left. What's sad is people have seriously been brainwashed since covid. I woke up to the lies right before that when I first got into the stock market. Both sides too.

The ‘everybody gets a trophy’ sentiment that started in the late 90s was the beginning of the end. ‘Defund the police’ is when it went off the rails. People didn’t leave the dems, the dems left the people. Cancel culture. You’ll get no argument from me there.

You hit the nail on the head. Total agreement. I was a democrat until 2020. I thought everyone around me was a democrat too. Turns out I have a huge mix of friends in different parties, but they're all liberal like me. To find out my gay cousins and non-binary one are MAGA was a shocker.

I'll remain Independent until the day I die. I pretty much just vote locally and democrat still, but this year I did vote for a republican controller. I can't back a president until we get good candidates. I stopped voting after Obama.
