      Pretty sure that’s the joke - if only the dems were as progressive as the cons make them out to be…
      (that’ how I took it anyway)

      Obama doubled the amount of border patrol agents. Which seems like a much better use of money than a wall, at least according to… the border patrol.

        *The amount of border patrol doubled while Obama was in office. It might seem pedantic but it is not. Anything like this requires Congress to approve the budgetary increase which means it happened because of multiple parties not just the White House.

          Under his lead. You are being pedantic. It was part of his states goals and platform. And his party overwhelmingly voted for it.

      Also, don’t the Dems want to let girls NOT have balls? Its the Republicans who get grumpy when Trans women get gender affirming surgery.

    I actually love that I can’t tell if this is for or against the Dems

    I have to assume it’s supposed to be against, because nobody who actually votes Democrat thinks that’s what they support

      Democrats are one of the two parties in the US so “vote democratic” doesn’t make sense. How else would you vote?

        Democrat is a noun. Democratic is an adjective. You can say “vote for a Democrat,” but you can’t say “vote Democrat” because you’re referring to the Democratic Party where “Democratic” is the adjective. In that case, it would be “vote Democratic.”

        Republicans love to use slurs like “the Democrat Party.” That’s probably where you’ve heard it.

          This is just grammar nazi bullshit. Give me empirical evidence that anybody would say “Vote Democratic”. It’s a phrase I’ve never heard but I’m not American and not a native speaker. The authority lies with native speakers but not language purists who think they are better than others.

          Didn’t necessarily have to be your short comment. It was probably all the other alt-right shit in your comment history and the fact that you moderate “MakeLemmyGreatAgain” ffs

          Idgaf what consenting adults do.

          Everyone you vote for does, so by proxy you do as well because you’re supporting those platforms. Don’t backpedal your stance because you don’t like the taste.

            Lol the sub name is a joke, I do not support Trump. And I have never voted Republican, because I am not even American. I do not support nationalism or anything else that you are assuming.

              Again, your comment history is visible. Your account is only seven days old and you’ve already laid out clear political leanings with your comments. You may not be an official Republican because you can’t vote for them as a non-American but you certainly agree with all their stances which is enough for me to know you’re kind of a piece of shit. Good luck with that.

                I do not agree with many of their stances, however I am more concerned by the way you think expressing dissent in a non-agressive way makes me a piece of shit: thats kind of the thing a brainwashed fascist would say. Good luck in the outside world buddy: not everyone with different political views has to be a pos.

      A cult is defined as a small religion. There’s nothing wrong with being in a cult. Dionysus had a realy awesome cult 3000 years ago.

          That definition was invented by christians seeking to destroy small religions through stigma. It’s on the same tier as the witch hunters defining a witch as an evil sorceresss. Obviously made up and fake, obviously pushing a harmful agenda.

            Cults are often led by sadistic and crazy people. Often, they are the witch hunters. They push unhealthy lifestyles and they often live isolated from civilization.
