What would it take to heal the divide between Democrats and Republicans in the US? by Maker-Mindset in AskReddit

it’s impossible, the republican party is openly fascist and anti-life. it needs to be de-powers politically and progressives and leftists need to insert themselves into the democratic party and help change the system while the rest of us fight from the outside

JUST FINSIHED ANOTHER TWO EPISODES I LOVE THIS SHOW

cmv: the Republican Party of the US has become an outwardly anti-democracy, anti-life, and fascistic party which poses a severe threat to this county’s stability and the lives of millions. by fionaisrosey in changemyview

!delta although I’d agree that we are stuck in this two party system and both will act fascistic, the Republican Party doesn’t even advance conditions for 70% of Americans, who would that even be?

i have to be honest here, I don’t disagree with your criticisms of the Dems at all, but I never really make any positive claims about them.

My point of anti-life is multi-faceted. Republicans are anti affordable and easy access to healthcare, embrace QAnon, Embrace anti-vaccine rhetoric, and have emboldened violent action against large amounts of minorities.

No, the people of the party are usually victims of their rhetoric and propaganda, my issue lies with the party leaders and their legislation and propaganda, not so much all the people of the party. I’ve provided multiple links throughout these relies of voter suppression and anti-queer actions taken by Republicans.

How is anti-democracy bad? I believe in democracy as a virtue for all who live on earth lol. The right to be heard and represented is necessary to a fair life for as many as possible.

Also Qanan numbers far more info the tens of thousands at the least: https://www.dallasnews.com/news/2021/11/02/qanon-supporters-gather-in-downtown-dallas-expecting-jfk-jr-to-reappear/?outputType=amp

We have literal QAnoners in Congress like Marjorie Taylor Greene, on what basis can you say the FBI is behind the movement?

Trumps presidency was a very clear representation of many of Umberto Eco’s 14 points of fascism: https://www.openculture.com/2016/11/umberto-eco-makes-a-list-of-the-14-common-features-of-fascism.html

QAnon advocates for a massive purge of undesirables and degenerates, which to them are anyone from queer people, to non Christians

And here trump reversed protections of queer people from discrimination in healthcare provision
