MODERATORS
I used to consider myself moderate but the Republicans have shifted so far right that there is no way I can vote for any of them in good conscience. Even if one seems somewhat okay, I don't trust them not to diantle all of the best things about our government.
It seems that the republican agenda has simply become one of "how much money can we make if we hurt people in new and creative ways?" If they ever get full control of the government again, they are going to ruin this country.
They would do away with the clean water act in an instant if they could. I swear, the only time they "think of the children" is when they're salivating over the profits to be gained from rising cancer rates due to lax environmental regulation.
Close. The only time they "think of the children" is when they're salivating over the profits to be gained by repealing child labor laws. I wish this was just a joke, but it's actually part of their platform now. They're trying to fast track us back to the worst aspects of the industrial revolution.
I disagree. I mean, I agree, but they also think of the children constantly. Otherwise how else could they constantly sexualize, groom, and abuse them? Right wingers protest too much on this topic. Their leadership is awash in pedophiles. So are their rank and file. Their churches are child rape factories regardless of denomination or geographic location or size.
I guess it does go hand in hand with their entire idea of stripping protections and rights from children so they can be used like objects and thrown away when they’ve been used up/grown up.
From an European point of view, the Democrates cannot be viewed as moderate since they are so far right. Now guess what we think of the Republicans.
Their main party line isn't quite nazi germany yet (though their right-wing totally is). But they nicely fit in line with the precursour governments like e.g. Austrofaschism.
