One would think Ms. Boebert would not be so eager to be a mean girl...

@kutee Except one side mobbed a government building because their candidate lost an election. With said candidate’s encouragement. 😳

@bijouxbroussard yes under trump, but go back 20 years whenit wa snormal, democrat or republican are both capitlaist

@kutee Go back [b]65[/b] years, the GOP supported civil rights, while Southern Democrats ("Dixiecrats") were staunch segregationists.
Things change. The two parties share virtually nothing in common. That’s the reason things are so divided now.

@bijouxbroussard neither is socialist, all countries have left and right, except usa

@kutee No, we’ve never had a truly leftist group that was part of the mainstream. Even terms like "Communism" and “Socialism" scare a lot of the population here practically to death. Explain to them that having public schools is a form of socialism. That you can call the fire department and they will try to save your home or you, without you having to pay them first, is [b]also[/b] a form of socialism. But it doesn’t compute. 🙁

@bijouxbroussard its funnyhow us govt is terrified of communism, and yet its biggest threat is inside usa in the form of revolution

@kutee The biggest threat inside the U.S. right now (imho) is fear, bias and ignorance. In the past, revolutions have meant more freedoms, more knowledge, and inclusiveness.

Now the people trying to make changes want to take away freedoms, block the availability of information and exclude groups of people.

I really don’t know what will happen next. 🥺

Yes, and the people who weaponize it for their own purposes.
