    “Temporarily”. Because their discussions are more important than any human being’s immediate health emergency.

    At this point, it is perfectly reasonable to view conservatives as subhuman. They are incapable of displaying even a tiny hint of humanity. Until there is evidence that they see others as humans, they should be offered no such respect in turn. They are simply a plague of oppression and death.

      Dehumanization is how Hitler justified and sold his actions. I would recommend against that. The other side is human just the same as you, no matter how monstrous they act.

          Oh please, like you’re above the fray. Even the way you just worded that comment is tribalistic in nature.

          2023 centrists out here acting like “leftists wanting access to healthcare and fair wages, and righties working to kill people are equally bad” isn’t it’s own special kind of stupid tribe 😂

          The whole ingroup vs outgroup aspect has become way too dominant in what used to be politics.

            If you think this is anything new, you should really look into fascism in the early 20th century.

            I’m not being flippant, you should really research it. You may be surprised to find striking similarities.
