What? You get your panties in a bunch when i unleash hyperbolic bullshit about what the Democrats want and do, but when you do it about Republicans it's perfectly OK?

Frankly it's just the other side of a coin.

Let's see. A party who is trying to whitewash history and ban or water down the teachings of racism, the KKK, etc by calling it all CRT and trying to end it all... This is meant to keep blacks suppressed as second class citizens by not allowing future generations to understand why a lot of structural things are the way they are. Defending symbols of racism like the Confederate flag is also supporting the theory that blacks are second class citizens.

Electing a cult leader who called basically the majority of illegal immigrants, of which there are over 10 million, as rapists and criminals - trying to keep them viewed as second class criminal element citizens. That sums up the keeping brown people as second class citizens.

And here you are defending keeping felons who have served their time and paid their punishment, disenfranchised. AKA as second class citizens.

I have given you perfect examples to back up my words.

Have a great day fascist.

I guess Imported Taj Mahal wants to remain as obtuse as ever.

How could this poster miss all the hoopla over the Texas' new voter suppression law? The new laws in Georgia forbidding the handing out of water and food to people waiting in long lines in that state?

If you want True Democracy, then increase voting turnout for your citizens, don't decrease it.

They are pretty up front that they dislike democracy.

This all isn’t complicated. Conservatives want America to look a certain way and liberals want it to look a different way.

When liberals don’t get what they want well, they are used to it so it’s not that big a deal. They also see society moving in their direction so it’s okay to wait.

When conservatives don’t get what they want they not only aren’t used to it, they (correctly) see the tide of history moving against them. They don’t view democracy as an independent virtue, they view it as the vehicle for their destruction. This is why starting in the mid-2000’s you started seeing conservative thought trend towards ‘actually democracy is bad’ and how that’s accelerated in the last 5-6 years. Democracy is only valuable to get them what they want. When it doesn’t they cast it aside.

We should all be quaking in our boots in fear of what the fat suburban middle-aged white wanna-be revolutionaries will be up to next. You can bet whatever it is will be planned to end before the next dinner special at some low-rent steakhouse, or Monday Night Football whatever comes first.

And yes I'm fully aware there were a few "bad hombres" mixed in with that Jan 6 crowd. The vast majority have far, far too much too lose to ever sacrifice their lives for what most of them know deep down is bullshit invented to tweak the libs.

The concern is not that on 1/6/2025 that a larger mob will actually take over the Capitol. What we should all be very afraid of is that it won’t be necessary because they already overturned the election.

Yep, we're all assholes because we think criminals, rapists, murderers, child molesters and muggers should actually be punished and not given rewards for the crimes they commit.

Unlike Democrats that want them to be bailed out, back on the streets to commit more crimes.
Unless that criminal, rapist, murderer, child molester and mugger is Trump, then he gets voted into office as your leader.

"A majority of Democrats and non-white voters support requiring voters to present photo identification in order to cast a ballot, according to a Monmouth University Polling Institute survey released on Monday."


Face it, not only is voter id not any type of voter suppression, it's favored by a huge margin....... so stop fucking lying about it.

Republicans don't want felons to vote because it helps them gerrymander. These prisons are often in rural areas that vote red. Felons count on the census for federal money and representation purposes, but when released often in the urban areas, they can't vote, thus effectively decreasing "turnout" of a sort. This makes rural votes effectively worth more than city votes. It's one of the many things designed to do this.

I think that states that don't allow felons to vote should not be able to count them on the cesus for federal funding and purposes of representation in congress.

So in summary, not allowing felons a vote has nothing to do with then selling their vote, it is a way to further rig the system by giving weight to GOP voters.

Botton line.... We're in a world of shit.

Republicans ARE going to win in 2022.
Donald Trump WILL RUN for 2024.
Republicans WILL EMBRACE candidate Donald Trump.
Thus, Donald Trump WILL WIN in 2024 regardless of votes cast.

About THE ONLY hope we have to stop the above from happening is.... divine intervention.
Donald Trump must drop dead for Donald Trump not to be the next president. Period!
Should divine intervention fail us, well....
What foreign country do YOU plan to flee to?

A survey from "Honest Elections Project"? Really? You're desperate to avoid discussion of 1/6 & what it means, huh?

Also, probably time to just work towards balkanization?

Resident asshole didn't read the Senate report where they detailed how Trump attempted a coup.
Even if he had read it, he'd still misrepresent what was in it. Like how he keeps claiming the Russian collusion was a hoax years after Manafort pled guilty to it.

tajmahal,

Every independent study of voter suppression in recent years shows the ultimate targets have always been Voters of Color.

I don't care what
