@LifeSavor Why do they campaign on gun control? There’s another reason. It’s an extremely easy topic to campaign on. Do you want innocent people to be killed with guns? Don’t you want to Do Something? What is an extremely important voting blok for Dems? The youth! What group of people have traditionally not showed up to vote? The youth! How do you get them to show up? Highly emotional issues! What are those issues? Gun control and climate change. Oh and student debt, of course.

Exactly Shire-man. They have to lie about everything because if they were honest about their intentions, and the consequences of those intentions, then the middle/independent, low-information voters would never support them. Old school, propaganda-infused Democrats who still love this country (yes they exist) wouldn’t even support them. Instead, they might vote third party, or not show up. (The people I’m referring to would pretty much never vote for Republicans.)

On that other site, I’ve started to repeatedly ask one of their adherents why they don’t just say that open borders are a good thing. Why don’t they say that secksually* indoctrinating children is a good thing? Why do they hide behind phrases like the border is secure or book bans? So far, I haven’t gotten an answer.

*I haven’t tested for a moderation system here yet since I can’t edit my comments.

Dan Z, will we be able to edit comments in the future?

Shire-man,

…or an insurrectionist. The latter being more of a compliment. 🤠

And when you complain about their shitty ideas you get called racist.

When crime is out of control, why would you campaign on gun control?

When inflation is creating poverty, why would you campaign on gun control?

When China and Bill Gates are buying up USA farmland, why would you campaign on gun control?

When we are sending tens of billions to Ukraine, and spending tens of billions on folk who came here illegally, why would you campaign on gun control?

When climate hoaxers are destroying our energy independence, why would you campaign on gun control?

When pedophiles are infiltrating our schools, why would you campaign on gun control?

I’ll tell you why, because all of the disastrous happenings cited above are you party’s platform, the results of your advocacy and activity. THAT is why you campaign on gun control. You do not want to talk about how you are destroying this great country.
