What I find odd about republican voters is the complete lack of nuance in their philosophy

[bripat9643]

Everything is either awesome, or it’s shit. There are no shades of gray. There’s no critical thinking in the way republicans reason. Everything is based more on emotion rather than facts which creates beliefs that are absolute.

Here are some examples of absolutes republican voters believe that not only lack any nuance, but are completely wrong for that reason.

1) Welfare is terrible and it helps no one

2) Trump is an awesome president

3) Any taxation is theft

5) America is the best country in every way.

6) Gun rights are just as important and practical as free speech rights

7) Hillary, Obama, Bill, Schumer, Al Gore or any other democrats for that matter, are all equally terrible people in every way.

8) Any GOP polician who sides with a democrat on anything at all is automatically a RINO.

9) Mad made climate change is a complete myth! GOP officials said so on Fox News therefore it is true!

10) Obama had no positive effect on the country in any way!

11) Any negative story about Trump is fake

12) Any poll showing that Trump is unpopular is not accurate. Any poll showing anything at all positive about Trump is 100% accurate because it came from Rasmussen

13) Abortion is murder regardless of the duration of the pregnancy

Is "naunce" where you say one thing and do another?

Yes, unlike the "nuance" on the democratic side where every fricken thing Trump does signals the end of the world.

Thats hilarious! And now for dem absolutes:

Welfare and trinkets for all
O was the savior
No tax is ever high enough
America is the worst country and racist
Killing babies in the womb is just as important as free speech
Trump, pence, bush, and every R is evil
Man made climate change is settled science....what ever that means
O was the savior for the country
All factual stories about trump are false
Abortion is never murder.

Lol with the exception of what you said about climate change, Dems never say any of that.

And, what? Democrats are nuanced in their philosophy? LOL

Why don't you find it funny that Democrats are complete hypocrites?

Democrats demand their bosses by them birth control by insisting birth control isn't their boss's business.

Bill Clinton raped woman and use the Oval office for affairs, and Democrats didn't mind. Trump engages in some consensual acts on his own time, and Democrats go into hysterics.

How about every Democrat politician who wants to ban guns, but either owns a gun or uses armed security?

Endless...

Thanks for the laugh... I was getting bored.

Generally, it's the left that uses emotion for their arguments.

 

[Tom Horn]

The OP is used to Barry never DOING anything...talk talk talk, paralysis by analysis. Hell, Barry even campaigned against his own proposals...the twitch didn't believe in anything because he's a complete fraud. Trump? He knows what he's doing and learning how to do it in the Oval Office...he's already undone most of Barry's foolishness in only a year doing what he said he'd do.

God you are SO great, I just...hell my head reels at these brief glimpses of your awesomeness. The mental acuity you use in your posts is well....almost godlike.

Here are some examples of absolutes republican voters believe that not only lack any nuance, but are completely wrong for that reason.

Then let's compare that to liberal reasoning and pragmatism:

If you are against Affirmative Action, you want to bring back slavery.

If you are against guys wearing dresses and going into your daughters shower or rest room in school, you are a bigot.

If we take more money from rich people, that will make them want to create jobs.

If we disarm the public, that will make us safer from armed criminals.

If you promote irresponsibility through our social programs, that will make people be more responsible.

Single parent families do just as well as two parent families.

We have over 40 million people without health insurance; most of whom can't afford it. So the solution is to make a law that you must buy insurance you can't afford, and when you don't, we'll take more of your hard earned tax money away.

God doesn't control the planet--man does. There is no God other than government.

If we pay people not to work, that will make more people want to get a job and work.

 

[mikegriffith1]

If you had a random sample of 2,000 Democratic voters and 2,000 Republican voters take the same quiz on basic American history and government, I'd bet you all of my IRAs and 401Ks that the Republican voters would trounce, crush the Democratic voters, even excluding the Democratic voters who would complain that they wanted the test in Spanish.

1) Lol liberals do not say this. You might find a quote from some random person saying it, but that would be it.

2) Yes, you really are a bigot. You’re right. How do I know? Because there is no actual threat posed by transgendered people using the bathroom of their choice. In fact, statistically republican officials have been involved in more bathroom assaults than transgendered. Oh and here’s another fact you aren’t considering: transgendered people have already been doing this for DECADES.

3) Liberals don’t ever make such a connection. What we do say is that if more revenue was invested in education, it would create jobs. However, what you should know is that the 1950s was a time of huge economic growth because the tax rate on the rich was 90%. This is because businesses were forced to invest in labor to make money. Nowadays corporations are so wealthy there is no incentive to invest in labor because they make money automatically from the money they save from tax cuts. Nowadays, they would ship job overseas if the tax rate was that high.

4) LIBERALS NEVER SAY THIS. What SOME liberals want is a ban on semi automatics. That’s it. No one wants to overturn the 2nd amendment. Stop pretending we do. I oppose banning any weapons because it is a useless gesture. Most liberals such as myself know other control laws would be more helpful.

5) Again, no one says shit like that lol. You just like to pretend we do. Any able body on food stamps, has a job. They just make peanuts to support their kids.

6) I don’t say that. Who does?

7) Lol most plans are affordable. Some aren’t. Overall, people are still registering for ACA. Over 20 million people have insurance through ACA. How do you explain that?

8) huh?

9) unemployment insurance has ALWAYS been temporary

Here's the "nuanced" Proglodyte version:

1) Everyone has a right to be supported by the State, unless you have white privilege.

2) Obama is sort of God.

3) Any tax deduction is an expenditure and subsidizes the taxpayer.

5) America is the source of all evil.

6) All rights are gifts bestowed by the Government (which is just something we all do together).

7) Middle class Americans are deplorable hillbillys (sic).

8) Any black person who is a conservative is an Uncle Tom or an Oreo.

9) Gender is a social construct.

10) Obama is sort of God.

11) At this point, what does it matter?

13) A fetus is not human no matter how close to full term it is.
