We're distancing ourselves from libs because we don't want the same things for the most part. Besides getting trump out of the picture we're rather different.
Right, and conservatives want lots of different things, yet they generally act in a unified way when it comes down to voting day.
I always vote democrat
I wish you libs would do more than just vote a couple times a year.
Exactly the type of division I'm referring to, thanks
Why don't you take my advice?
Because you're assuming in bad faith, unaware of what actions I take in life outside of voting day.
You displayed behavior aligning with my statement ( pushing libs away, creating blue division)
I've never provided evidence of your statement (only doing anything on voting day)
You assume I never vote
Never said that.
Then what's the problem if I vote the way you like?
Never said it was.
What's the problem then? You want me to not criticize liberals who have moderate to right wing beliefs?
Do whatever you want. I wasn't asking you to do anything. I was making an observation between the different but unified conservatives, vs the different but divided liberals in the context of the labels as described here.
And boy, the replies delivered
Well, we're not sycophants who all believe the same things. Still not sure what you're criticizing since we do indeed vote the same. I'm not gonna just shut up about regressive positions amongst those who share other, not regressive positions with me for the sake of unity. We're not unified as tightly as the fascists because we actually have much more fully fleshed out ideologies unlike them.
If you both let it, it's assumptions all the way down. If you look closely, you'll even spot the communication problem in microcosm.
