You avoided the question though. Maybe you don't want to answer it, and that's okay.




You don’t think that Republicans outright celebrating and defending Nazis and what Kirk said - and praised by Republicans is considering a race inferior?

I vehemently oppose Nazi anything. Also I think you've subscribed to a very biased view of Republicans that doesn't describe anyone I know. That said I'm not politically aligned with either she so my take shouldn't serve as a defense for anyone's view. But from outside the fishbowl I can't say I subscribe to this description.

It’s hard to believe that when you are repeating very common MAGA/republican talking points and digging in your heels calling into question political party realignment, a very established concept, to claim democrats are a pro-slavery party. That is a very striking claim from someone “outside the fishbowl.”

I didn't claim Democrats are pro slavery today. In the past they were. I gave very little opinion on the matter. I'm just pointing out that these talking points for both parties haven't changed.

So this doesn’t describe “anyone you know”, yet the official “Young Republicans” association is bragging about their support for Nazis with the Republican Vice President dismissing it and Republicans across the country deifying a dead racist podcaster? And the elected Republican President accused a whole group of people of “eating pets” - and Republicans still overwhelming support this. Yet “no one you know” is like this?

I don't see your point. I think you're trying to say you don't like Republicans, and I'm okay with that. Again, I don't have a horse in the race. I'm just pointing out some facts that disagree with the revisionist's history. It seems I may have upset you. I will disengage here.
