    I'm not a leftist, that's just ridiculous.

    I am an American born and raised in the midwest, I am American just as much as apple pie is.

    This only applies if you somehow think RINO's are Republicans.

    You can see the bind you are in.

    I would be interested in a bullet point summation of what you would like to see the US become culturally, economically and politically. And why. I’m more fascinated by ideas than .gifs and slurs.

    In the coming week I'm thinking about creating an entire thread of what my ideal society or nation state looks like.

    Also, I'm a natural rude and obnoxious SOB as it is a part of my individual character.

    My personality isn't for the timid.

    Yeah, so you better act appropriately in the GOP or be ostracized.

    This is what PC is.

    Desperate sprinting projection & flamebait is still just desperate sprinting projection & flamebait. The Brownshirts were RW fascists of the Hitler era.

    No you are wrong, sorry.

    https://www.snopes.com/news/2017/09/05/were-nazis-socialists/ Debunked as propaganda.

    Here is the Snopes actual conclusion:
    "Above all, the Nazis were German white nationalists. What they stood for was the ascendancy of the “Aryan” race and the German nation, by any means necessary. Despite co-opting the name, some of the rhetoric, and even some of the precepts of socialism, Hitler and party did so with utter cynicism, and with vastly different goals. The claim that the Nazis actually were leftists or socialists in any generally accepted sense of those terms flies in the face of historical reality."

    Nazi's were both socialist and leftiest.


    The whole nationalism, racism and Aryan master race thing? A leftist thing.
    Historical fact.

    A reality you are unwilling to face. But still reality just the same.


    I appreciate in your fantasy reality that being right wing is defined by racism, that your pathetic understanding of why people don;t agree with your politics = becaise they are racists Nazi's and need ot be killed.
    But er.. that's just your ignorance and intolerance speaking.
    Try and think a little harder on the subject before finalising your position.

    If you are in the GOP, act like a Republican.

    Republicans in name only are despised by all.

    I can say what I want without insulting a person, although I prefer to be a smartass. I can remember the politically correct era with religion thrown in fifty years ago..The term PC actually came from the USSR in the 1920's and was meant as a joke. It showed up in the US in the mid-thirties yet we as Americans have still survived and made it possible in today's era to have an obesity epidemic.

    Nothing from the USSR was meant as a joke.

    Its speech control, a subset of thought control.

    Yes, we have survived despite the commie influence, but it remains an issue.

    Ironically, it survives here with the elites (academia, media, hollywood), while it has failed world wide, with the poor and middle class.

    I don't think Stalin was joking when he referred to "useful idiots".

    I dont think you understand what PC is.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_correctness

    Not really. The GOP has an broad spectrum, from libertarians to its far right.

    But the ones that aren't republicans, aren't.

    Watch alaska in 2022.
