evince, please don't. I imagine we agree on plenty of things, but this ain't one of them. I keep scrolling over you because you're as blindly partisan as Trumpists are. Catch me in another thread where we can hopefully have a pleasant exchange.

QED. Sure, it only takes one account which is why the actions of the Ass Lesion Army are such a curiosity. Why do you think Legion is such a limp-dicked, spineless weasel who has more socks than most people have fingers and toes?

I blame a good deal of this on the media that the RWers choose to follow. For instance, our former neighbor down the road is a retired military guy who then worked 20 more years for security for the CDC as a government employee. They watched Fox exclusively. One day we were talking about how good it is that the last coal-fired electrical generating plant here was closed for good, and replaced by a much more efficient (and cleaner) natural gas plant. He dutifully repeated the nonsense that Obama's regulations stifled coal but Trump was working to get rid of those to restore coal to its rightful place. Mr. Owl mildly pointed out that it is market forces that caused the decline of coal, not regulations. The neighbor was in total disbelief. Mr. Owl (who could easily double for Spock in the computer-like brain area) cited facts and figures from the Wall Street Journal. You could see the wheels turning and the guy beginning to realize that maybe what he was told wasn't right.

That's what we are up against.

A good woman with a good husband who have good children? What?! You hit life's jackpot!

If you and Mr. Owl were able to get the neighbor's wheels turning, you deserve a medal. I completely realize how criminally negligent and dishonest Fox News is in its broadcasting. I try to watch it from the top of the hour once or twice a week. Sometimes I make it 30 minutes. Sometimes I make it the full hour. I just like to know, like you said, what we're up against. Usually, however, when I try to explain facts and figures to a Trumpist, armed with the knowledge of what "information" they have been spoon fed, I get nothing. I may as well be discussing politics, economics, or science with a tree leaf.

I was offering the other poster an alternative viewpoint since he offered one to me. There is no doubt that some conservative viewpoints are so radical that they don't deserve a platform, but I was being delicate with my language. I also want to be clear that I'm not anti-conservative. I have some conservative tendencies. I respect the rights of other people to have conservative ideals. Until they become crazy and/or hateful. That's why I am anti-Trump and anti-Trumpists. They are indeed deplorable scummy humans and do not belong in a civilized society.

No socialist came near the presidency, but a lot of these people consider anything left of Reagan a socialist. They've been calling Biden a communist and a Nazi since the primaries. They're all morons.

Biden is not a communist. He is a socialist. He is a fascist. He is not a Nazi. The Nazi party was destroyed in WW2.

Probably intellectual laziness, would be my guess.

I don't believe that *all* of the 70M misguided souls who voted for #LOSER45 are Right Wing Nut Jobs, but a lot of them are. Some of the souls who voted for Biden are Left Wing Nut Jobs, but my guess is far fewer because the more radical ppl on the left refused to vote at all, or voted third party. We can see who the radicals are fairly easily by looking at what they say here and on other public sites where political comment is allowed. For instance, here we have JPP's Best Christian, Sister Stretch, who wants to see the election given to state legislators who then have one vote and one only to select who won the race in that state -- whether the people themselves voted for Biden or not. In other words, she wants to disenfranchise 80 million people who didn't make the choice that she wants. There are others here just as bad. You and I weren't here during the last election. There was plenty of carping from the left on Amazon though, when the Toadstool won, but I never once saw any leftie post anything that radical about overturning the will of the people.

You have.

I'm not sure how anyone can compromise with people from a party who are so terrified of being insulted on Twitter by the Despot-in-Chief that they refuse to speak up when he outright lies, wrongfully attacks others, and behaves like a rabid raccoon. If they're that cowardly, they sure are too chickenshit to even *think* of compromising with a (D) to do the work of the people. Watch for a new stimulus package to be presented shortly after Biden is sworn in, and watch which party tries to stall it and you'll see what I mean. One's been sitting on Moscow Mitch's desk since May.

Putin wants Biden. He said so. He wanted Hillary too. He said so.
