Good Vs. Evil

Democrats seek to alleviate precarity in order to build equity-in-diversity. Republicans seek to amplify precarity in order to exploit-&-control. Needless to say, one wishes more Democrats were better at building equity-in-diversity, and one can imagine or at any rate remember Republicans who weren't entirely given over to exploitation and control, but I gotta say this distinction seems pretty apt and it pretty much is the difference between good and evil and, like it not, here we are.

Wow, you have to be a complete idiot to actually believe that, as well as ignorant of what democrats have actually done - or a CIA asset.
By the way, it may like a huge surprise to you but H. Arendt you love so much, along with Popper, is one of the most insidious right wing ideologues that have existed. The damage she inflicted on radical causes with her ridiculous concept of "totalitarism" alone is incalculable.

Thanks for sharing your nuanced observations with a complete idiot, brave anonymous.

"Democrats seek to alleviate precarity in order to build equity-in-diversity."

Indeed, one WOULD "have to be a complete idiot to actually believe that, as well as ignorant of what democrats have actually done". Or possibly be a CIA asset.

It is truly amazing how "progressives", like Carrico, have become right-wingers, even outright fascists. See:

So I'm a right-winger, a fascist, and a possible CIA asset? Well, I'm not any of those things at all and I guess I'm sorry you think so, if that gives you satisfaction?
