So Mike, You're saying the far right is better with your "no" response?
The far right includes nazis, racists, homophobes who all want to use violence to kill jews, people of color, gay and trans people, liberals, and more. I don't know how you can seriously sit here and say that's better than the non-violent things the far left wants to do. Antifa isn't even real so don't bring in fake news. What's real are the people who stormed the Capitol, proud boys, and lots of violent people who came out of the woodwork after trump was elected. I'm still in the middle overall but I will always vote for human rights and protections before I vote to benefit myself fiscally. I'm not a single issue voter so I don't only vote on tax issues. I vote for people who protect people and that's overwhelmingly democrats. Moderate ones are my choice. I've never voted for Bernie but he's still a good guy who cares. Biden wasn't my choice but he's way better than trump. I wanted Amy Klobuchar or Pete Buttigieg personally. I think Pete will be president sometime in the next 3 elections. Oh, the other thing that came of trump are some extremists in congress being elected in 2022. They were a result of trump crying the 2020 election was stolen and he riled up the base to give him money, stealing from his supporters. And the most crazy ones ran and won in some cases. So now there's some nut jobs in congress, more than the old ones who won't retire. Then more far right supporters started infiltrating school boards and city councils to white wash history. They want to ban anything that teaches real history because they don't want their kids to know about slavery and racism, native Americans. They want to teach kids that white man discovered America first lol. And now they're trying to ban books in schools and public libraries that they don't like. Books that show a kid having two moms or dads for example. They don't wany any pride flags, pins, or stickers anywhere in school because they somehow think that will make a kid gay. They act like you aren't born straight, gay, bi and that it's actually a choice ha. And don't get me started on them trying force their religious beliefs on everyone else. And now their target is trans people and drag queens to "protect the kids" while they take their kid to Hooters, or worse, church where there's an infinitely higher chance of being sexually assaulted by a pastor, staff, or volunteer. There isn't a single case of a drag queen being charged with SA but there's thousands of church people that have been charged and tens of thousands never charged because it's swept under the rug. The right is actively stripping away rights of Americans and getting away with it in many red states. Abortion too. Way to control women you sick republican men! Over 385 anti-lgbt bills have been proposed at the state level. And who proposed them? All Republicans. You can't say with a straight face that they care about anyone. There's no empathy. Just hate and fear of those different from them. I've watched fox and it's nothing but fear mongering to rile up their base and keep they eyeballs glued to their channel. They scare their viewers everyday and it's always a "war on something" with them. While I agree with some fiscal ideas Republicans have, they will never get my vote as long as they hate America and it's people. Gen Z will completely annihilate their party and they're likely going to lose every election going forward if they don't pivot immediately. They'll only win state and local elections in rural areas where there's a bunch of red voters who continue to vote against themselves. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-03-08/2023-is-already-a-record-year-for-anti-lgbtq-bills-in-the-us?leadSource=uverify%20wall On Sat, Mar 25, 2023, 9:32 AM Mike Hammett <af...@ics-il.net> wrote: > I wish AFMUG would stop going political.
