    Dear Republicans,

    If you want to remain relevant politically, here’s what you need to do: GIVE UP. Seriously. You’re fighting a losing battle against time and changing demographics. A majority of people under 50 hate you, a huge majority of people under 40 hate you, and practically everyone under 30 hates you. That is not a recipe for long-term viability.

    Yield on the culture war shit. You lost. Get the fuck over it. Move on. And maybe someday there will be two parties willing to talk about substantive issues again, rather than one party being only willing to talk about protecting fetuses from being gay molested by drag queen Jewish space lasers.

      The thing is they have nothing else. They have no policy. If they had a health care plan it would be the ACA They don’t support any ubi or anything to help families

      Republicans

      Have

      No

      Policy

      They have to rely on culture wars.

        Well that’s not true. They have the policy of wealth idolatry while claiming moral and religious superiority as the basis for why you should be voting for them.

        This is why.

        Democrats: Stop trying to reason with republiQans. They will never even deal in good faith. Never. Stop it. Build what you can alone. Seriously, the effort wasted in trying to understand or sway them is immense. Just stop.

      They know this, that’s why their strategy is now “full blown fascism”. If they can’t win democratically, then they will ignore, undermine, and destroy democracy to get what they want; which is exclusive control of all the money and all the power.
