It got removed without a clear explanation, possibly due to the body which I changed this time.

Google hyperpartisan sycophant and look in the mirror. You are also complicit.

Sorry, no. I never both sidesed anything, I just said the other person is telling lies and somehow I'm the problem.

I'm sure not telling lies just to win internet points like some of y'all

And I'm sure you are the part of the problem with this country. Hyperpartisanism is fueled by dishonesty on both sides. Neither Democrats nor Republicans should be treated as a monolith.

Forgive me for trying to keep y'all honest, my bad, I guess

Just keeping the discussion honest is all.

I can't speak for them. However, if they simply wanted to terrorize people they could have just overthrown the government.

Some people within that party do not support what happened and others do not support Trump

I'm not apologizing for anyone. I'm just saying they are not all one person and some of them do the right thing sometimes.

Not sure, my only point is that we will not allow anyone in the party to do so if we claim them to be a monolith. There is in fact a divergence of opinions within the party on multiple topics.

No, they are not good, I'm just saying they're not all the same and they didn't all commit that particular crime.

Yes, he did, but that was within the bounds of the law. This person cannot honestly claim that the entire GOP tried to overthrow the government.

Sure, they're cowards, but did they overthrow the government?

My only point is that you need to treat people as individuals and not put everyone who has ever voted for the GOP in the MAGA camp. There are Republicans who had just enough backbone on January 6th and there are republicans who do not support Trump today. Believe it or not, there are even republicans who support abortion or believe in gay marriage or support sane gun control measures. Everyone everywhere is an individual.

It's important to allow people to evolve if they so choose.

Again, what did Pence and McConnell do when given the choice to overthrow the republic? I'm not a MAGA or GOP person by any means, nor am I a Democrat, I'm just trying to point out that things are not as black and white as you bullies want to paint them.

All of them did it? We wouldn't still be standing without McConnell and Pence. As terrible as their policies are they still stood up for the system.

There is no nuance if you yourself do not provide it.

The GOP that wanted to brutalize Pelosi on the steps of the capital? The GOP that laughed when a man with a hammer nearly murdered her husband with a hammer? The GOP that wants to roll back all civil rights to a time before the revolution? The GOP that wants to install a fascist dictatorship?

You are ascribing the actions of individuals to the entire group. Not every GOP person is a MAGA person and not every MAGA person would resort to violence like some on January 6th. Please allow for some nuance.

Do you have ADHD? I've read that people with ADHD can hyperfocus on new activities and easily get bored when things are no longer new. AuHD can also happen where there is a touch of autism along with it that can also make social stuff hard. Whatever it is, no one here is your doctor, and you should probably see if your doctor would refer you to a therapist or psychiatrist.

All of that can be unfortunately explained away by MAGA. This hits them in the only place they care about, the ballot box.
