Can we all agree that "Freethinker" = Republican?

[GoAggieGo.]

Is this consistent with all people who vote democratic? Or is this another case of zeroing in on detractors? If Killer Mike is solid, he is solid. Notice folks will be all giddy if he says the right stuff but then it is fat c00n if he does something they don't like.

Simple answer? Stop worrying about other peoples input so much. Vote in who you want as we are adults, but know that when you pick certain people, you riding with all the shyt they offer for better or worse. This is not a personal attack, this is just how it is.

I agree with the bold wholeheartedly; especially the underlined as I’ve gotten older.

Yea man, it took me a while to understand why politics are not just politics. Its one thing to have a guy pull up into office and start doing out of character shyt, but cats have their agendas posted on their websites and everywhere else. When you vote, you ok'd all of that and you have to eat the charges if people look at you different. I can argue with a cat right now and we agree that the government spending needs to shrink. I'm thinking reduce military spending and tax breaks for the rich. They are thinking cut social programs and sell public owned services off to private entities.

Guess which one is likely a net negative to society? My mans gotta own that shyt when it comes to fruition and hurts people.

It's crazy how people claim to be free thinkers only because they think being anti-abortion and open to voting Republican over one thung makes them unique and special to the rest of us ghetto blacks voting Democrats. Yet they seem to have no idea how government and elections actually work. Bunch of wannabe bourgeois Republican voting c00ns.

There are plenty of black people who have reservations about abortion, and would never do it themselves but still support the liberal candidate for obvious reasons and still support rights. And these people don't need some bougie label nor do they feel any need to support anti-civil rights Republicans to speak on that. That's what I call free thinking. When you can have an opinion of your own but you still have the ability to look at elections and government with critical thought. The ability to break away from your party and challenge certain issues that arr personal to you but still support them as your overall ideological party of choice.

These people who wanna jump over to the hard right wing Republican side and be useful stooges for their entire agendas just because they have reservation about abortion and immigrants need to stop playing the semantics game and just do them.

If you don't support abortion that's fine with me but if you want that right restricted for those that do that's when I look at that individual sideways

The whole point of voting is to change what you don’t like. Abortion is just the example. It could be gun control or school funding. If I don’t support it I vote against it.

Just because our opinions and votes don’t match up doesn’t mean I’m a Russian or c00n. This is my only point. I support 700 other things, but a couple things I don’t agree with. It shouldn’t be a issue.

Technically the United States is modeled after the 18th century concept of a liberal democracy which gave way to the dismantling of monarchs and the beginning of modern governments.

We have two parties that are only intended to balance out and explore a left-right spectrum with our laws.

I will say that since Trump, Republicans seem more openly supportive of a one party, one leader fascist rule than the ideals of Democracy. They are now denying every election loss since the insurrection, their candidates are running on conspiracies and lies, they are pushing for laws making it harder for certain people to vote, theyre banning "woke literature" or anything that encourages critical thought about American society and replacing it with brain dead "teach them to love America" nationalist indoctrination nonsense in schools, they are challenging civil rights in courts, in fact they are stacking up every tier of our government with unqualified hacks who are there to obstruct anything liberals or Democrats do, they want to impose a national identity of white, English speaking Christians as full Americans while demonizing non-english speaking, non-Christian immigrants as threatening invaders who do not belong, they seem to have no interest whatsoever in coexisting with a left wing of their country, which is what Democracy is based off of. They want liberals and liberalism completely eliminated in America and a right wing, white Christian nationalist government in its place. They truly are becoming an oppressive fascist party.

Sounds about white wing.

See this post. This is exactly what I mean. He had to type all of this. From Republican c00ns to ghetto blacks. Civil rights. Bourgeois black prior. Right wing stooges. Even immigration.


All of this because I said I’m against abortion and I’m not Russian.



Who said they were open to voting Republican? We’re we discussing that?

It depends on how you define a c00n

To me, a c00n is a black person who works against the interest of the black community (see Clarence Thomas) Under that definition, if you vote for a person that just happens to be a white supremacist, well....

 

[African Peasant]

How? Unless you mean classical liberalism (advocates for free market and laissez-faire economics).

In American politics, "liberal" means someone that is socially liberal/progressive. Most Republicans are NOT socially liberal and thus are NOT liberals.

I mean liberal in the real, philosophical definition. Freethinking is not politics.

Both republicans and democrats are liberals.

Ice Cube drafted up a plan for Black America and talked to both sides and these shameless Democrat shills ain't let up because he had the nerve to try to talk to Republicans too.

That was one of the most revealing things ever about modern Black people and politics. And when he was up there with those Black ladies, and they treated him like that… just crazy
