Think about it!

[GranTorino]

Not racist.
I’m resentful.

[Political Junkie Too]

I believe that only citizens with IDs should vote, vote in person, and only on election day. Today, that makes me an insurrectionist.

I actually agree with a lot of the things my liberal 1960s teachers used to believe in.

I’m suspicious of the 3 letter agencies and think they routinely abuse their power especially against political dissidents.

I’m antiwar and think a lot of the conflicts the government chooses to get us involved in are unnecessary AND I’m suspicious of the military industrial complex....defense companies....which profit from those conflicts.

I want a secure border - a flood of illegal aliens coming in hurts the working class especially.

I’m suspicious of Big Pharma.

I’m suspicious of lots of Big Business.

I favor fair trade rather than pure free trade.

I favor transparency in government.

I want elections to be secure which means use paper, show ID and I want complete transparency in the vote counting.

I staunchly support free speech. If that means some people get their feelings hurt, too bad.

All of this which was described as left wing as recently as 10-15 years ago, now makes me a Right winger.....and I wasn’t even born until the 1970s so I’m not “that” old.

Obeying the "natural laws" is a good idea. Like gravity, not eating too much, not blaming others for things that go wrong in your life, not engaging in sodomy, working hard, being responsible, exercising, etc.

Disobeying "natural law" (i.e., creating your own reality and doing what you want regardlessly) will almost always catch up with you at some point...and, frankly, you deserve what you get.

I’m in my early 40s and your liberal 1960s teachers sound pretty based. It still blows my mind how much has changed in about half a generation.

[Adder]

Not fascist or racist...but mad as hell.

[Flavious_Maximus]

Anyone receiving welfare for more than 5 years should also lose the privilege to vote, as well as prisoners, prostitutes and drug addicts (basically all the current politicians). /spit

[mairdie]

Excellent find. True and funny.

[oblomov]

I realize this is partly tongue-in-cheek humor, but it didn’t all happen in the last 10 years.

See: Plyler v. Doe, Lau v. Nichols

[EQAndyBuzz]

I was in the military so I am a baby killer.
I majored in STEM in college so I am an uneducated right winger.
I am a conservationist therefore I am a climate change denier.

[NetAddicted]

Excellently written!

[pas]

The last line is the best.

"I actually agree with a lot of the things my liberal 1960s teachers used to believe in."

I guess the only difference between you and them is that that they are/were willing to seize power through any means necessary and move rapidly to recreate the Third Reich.

[xenia]

There is a lot of truth in what you say. I’ve thot of some of these same things lately...especially the military conflicts and big business.

[Westbrook]

I actually believe in individual liberty. They clearly do not.

I believe in the values of the Enlightenment. They clearly do not.

I revere the Founding Fathers. They clearly do not.

I’m not saying I agree with everything previous liberals believed in, but I did agree with them about a lot. I agree with Leftists about absolutely nothing at all.

The Trouble With Normal

[I want the USA back]

It’s people like that that the left wants to eradicate. Think about it.

[Ouderkirk]

This crap only works if you let it.

I won’t back down and simply go on the “offensive” if I am confronted with this snowflake nonsense.
