I think men vs. women parenting is the perfect analogy for how republican vs democrat is supposed to be. The women are the democrats, over-protective and wants to get to the bottom of everything. The men are carefree and let's see how it works out with a dash of let the strong survive. Great parents are the ones who take the best from each and honor the reasons behind why they think that, regardless if they always agree or not.
Stop trying to make everything about your shitty politics you weak ass troll
Unrelated to the discussion, but “you weak ass troll” is fantastic and I’m stealing it lol
I'm trolling by showing what a great goal would be again? Interesting take.
Your comment is so sexist and absurd that frankly we have to believe you’re trolling and not that an educated adult would possibly think this is ok or in any way accurate.
“We are not Allies” says the guy trying desperately hard to appear caring and inclusive.
keep pushing everyone away with weird purity tests, wouldn’t want you to stop feeling superior.
That's a terrible analogy. It's not even close
I don't think I've ever heard of a carefree Republican.
If you want the analogy to be correct, you need the men side of your story to actively sabotage the stairs or push the child to make them fall.
Or the women trying to add or repair hand rails to make them safer, and the men saying "No that won't prevent falls." And actively prevent any repairs.
Although I 100% agree with you, we have to have the goal of what we want, not what it is.
These are poor analogies based on gender and parental stereotypes that not only have no basis in reality but are so reductivist as to be insulting.
Do you mean like the meme we're laughing at? You're not wrong it's a generalization though.
What kool aid exactly are you saying? How do you think democracy is supposed to work?
You're going to want to work on that one some. I don't think you're ready for primetime yet.
Probably requires some cooperation too.
Absolutely, trying to check in with other side. I'm not saying it's possible right now, we have a lot of authoritarian lovers in office. We can't lose sight of what the original intent was though. We need to vote out the non-cooperators.
Optimism and Centrism? You know everyone is going to hate you for this...
LMAO, I'm in a downvote collecting mood.
Edit: I should add, I'm really not trolling and truly believe that was how democracy was intended to work.
Then your a fucking idiot. Republicans can't leave people alone, so they aren't "carefree". They are just bigots.
