Yeah, The establishment neolib Dems aren’t great. They’re a center right party by global standards. That doesn’t change the fact that the present day republicans are totally off the deep end. Radical regressive policies that are pushing a Christian theocracy as policy. Hell they just put Marjory Taylor green on committee.. the woman who thinks Jewish space lasers are a thing. The woman who denies 9/11 happened. She’s on the homeland security committee.

The both sides are the same argument only furthers the ability to destroy what’s left of American democracy and ideals. 🤷‍♂️

How far do you want to go back? And in what states?

Should we include weakening epa protections for dumping chemicals into waterways? Should we include limiting abortion rights even in the case of risk of death to the mothers? Should we include the patriot act and the prism Program that allow government agencies to spy on you without a formal warrant? Should we include the ability to shoot to kill people you perceive to be robbing your neighbours house?

Northern republicans should really go south and see what the health care and standard of living is like IMO. The same people who decry white men having it so bad would be shocked to realize that as a working age male you’re entitled to zero protections down there for medical and very little unemployment. Probably this is why the crime rates are so high in the cities of red states.
