This is such a bizarre type of person. I've legitimately never met one. Like why not be a republican? Does he just want the rich to pay slightly higher taxes or something?
you'd think smokeing weed would chill him out a bit, especially on the racism stuff. guess not. always surprised how many fucking racist stoners there are
Yeah, almost everyone is just a grab bag of ideas and beliefs. It's so easy for the general populace to be swayed by propaganda and just personal experience. There are plenty of folks left, right and center that can have all very overlapping ideas on all sides.
I also love the dumbasses who say they are "socially liberal but fiscally conservative" just the biggest bird brain phrase to say to sound smart or just don't want to identify as a typical right wing bigot
Because there's nothing inherently ideological about the two parties, especially historically, it's really a recent phenomena that parties at large are this ideological. Political parties in america are mostly just demographic things, and people just vote for the party their parents voted for, especially for down ballot stuff.
I mean to an extent, but the culture wars have been going on for decades. Now that I think about it I have met some old head union Democrat voters that are racist as fuck and only vote Dem because their union tells them to, so I guess I've misspoke.
