Just so we're clear, democrats are blue conservatives and are not leftists.

The meme is still accurate though. Why does Futurama look so anime? Did i miss a new episode?

I'll start my own leftism, with Blackjack and hookers! If fact, forget the blackjack. Ah, screw the whole thing.

Circular firing squad

I've seen situations here on lemmy where I would cause it if I where to argue with someone

I am leftist

The better strategy would be to change what a Republican is and stands for, then we could all have our cake and the idiots in our country can still feel like they won.

Democrat can mean or represent literally anything, even if they did a 180 and began supporting Trump, and my mother will still hate them, because they're Democrats.

you can't spin those fascists into anything but shit!

ehhhhhh... Traditional, old school Elephants were still very environmentally conscious, turn nationalism into a positive trait. Patriots for nature and equal pay from the established woke billionaires! Be a real American, soldier!

When I go hiking... I am going through certain mental forms of anguish as well as worrying about my water, the heat of the sun, and the fear of dying alone. of like a heart attack. because sometimes I really push myself. On this journey every once in a while I see a comrade and they're either moving past me at a higher rate or moving away because they've already reached their goal. Yet at the end of the day, it is just the time in which it takes me to get to my destination. But yet eventually we all reach the end of the trail. We observed different things and we value different things. We should talk about that.

One thing the right is good at doing is falling in line, no matter that the agenda being pushed.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 week ago (5 children)

That's mostly due to the rights belief in hierarchy. It doesn't matter if the person above you has different views than you if you believe their right simply because they're higher up the pecking order.

Sucks that the system in the USA is broken but until it's fixed and we have more than two parties, democrats are the left.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

It's better not to equate the two parties of the USA to the parties in a parliamentary system it's a different beast.

The Democrats are the coalition of the left of center interest groups of the current time, and Republicans the coalition of the right of center interest groups of the current time.

These groups are more the parties of the parliamentary system and run candidates in the primaries of their respective parties, and possibly as independent from time to time (particularly when they feel a bit pushed out of the main parties). Also they push these candidates at all levels (local, state, congress ect)

I would love some sort of rank choice/instant runoff ballots to make more choices easier in the voting lineup, however those who are pushing for third parties without trying to run local politicians or promoting policies ect will likely not succeed in that system either.

The right opposes free thought and favors conformity to support the privileged few.

The left favors free thought and opposes conformity, because that would impede social progress.

Yeah, I wonder why one of those groups is likely to have public arguments.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Not necessarily. Some leftists demand conformity in beliefs. "If you don't believe XYZ, you're a shill/neoliberal/fascist etc."

I feel like favoring free thought and opposing conformity leads to arguments, but demanding conformity leads to enemies (like this meme).
