The folks cannot relate to the batshitcrazy looney left. The folks cannot relate to the batshitcrazy radical right.
The folks in this country are now left out in the cold. The forgotten. The left behind.
The issue I have is that the vast majority of the "batshitcrazy looney left" stuff is either completely fabricated, grossly misrepresented or if true, is being incorrectly applied to everyone who is not a Republican. And then it is compounded by the messages of the batshitcrazy right being dressed up in smoothly edited videos and easily passed along images and shared via Facebook by regular conservatives, who prior to this con, I considered not to be the "batshitcrazy radical right".
Trump has weaponized people of faith. Not just churchgoers but all people who are willing to believe what they believe based only on the hope that it is true without evidence supporting it. He has convinced them that the providers of clear evidence that proves what they believe is not the case cannot be trusted and that only he can be trusted as the source of truth despite the mountain of evidence over decades that easily prove how absurd that is.
People WANT to believe they are right. People WANT to believe they aren't being used as pawns. Every time Trump opens his mouth to accuse someone of something, it is basically an admission of what he himself has done or is doing. It is mind boggling what has happened to this country. Donald Freaking Trump is our President, people. WTF?!? Are you kidding me?

If we’re gonna have revolution, then gosh darn it let’s have revolution. THIRD PARTY.
If they can get the confederate flag removed from nascar, we can have a legitimate third political party.
So that folks with money can prop up a third crappy option, great. A third party accomplishes nothing.

You are one of the looney left. So I would expect that response from you.

If it was up to your type, rather than a legitimate third political party, you would eliminate the Republican Party. One party. One voice. One think.

Isn't that what the red states are doing with their voting laws?

You’ll have to take that up with the comrade. That’s more up his alley.
Me, I favor a legitimate third political party.

I take it more as absolving yourself for supporting Trump.

That's how low the bar has gotten? What next?? If we can stop calling {blanks} "blanks" in public we should be able to..........
How did we get from "If we can put a man on the moon...." to "Now that we no longer display racist iconography........"

Has the looney left declared “folks” not politically correct?

My goodness.
You may be right about people exaggerating the "looney left"...but you sure do a lot of the same stuff to the people you consider the "batshit crazy right".
Neither group is nearly as big as the opposing side claims.
And fwiw I know plenty of religious people who fucking hate trump. You act like only rural white people are churchgoers and that's laughable. There are a lot of very religious black people who despise trump. So your typical and predictable over the top comment of "trump has weaponized people of faith" sounds down right stupid imo.

I just hate the word. It makes all people seem like rubes or hillbillies. It's insulting to the people you're trying to promote.

Again, please stop using it. Thanks.
And if you think I'm far left, or hell, even left of center you might want to recalibrate your political spectrum.
The word is just a fucking stupid one...nothing to do with PC. It's like kiddo. It's just fucking annoying. Also, we can add 'spousal unit' to the list. I'm not sure what's wrong with people who don't understand.

Might be best to make a thread for stupid words and phrases? It'll get lost in the shuffle here.

Nah, if it keeps Michhawk from posting on topic, it's doing its job.
