that wealth redistribution question is pretty lit tho
love to frame “we should vote to redistribute wealth” as inherently undemocratic
In fact… are any of these undemocratic? Or just anti document worship? Cause as we all know the most democratic rules are the ones that were handed down by aristocrats 250 years ago and are essentially unchangeable by democratic means
Some of the phrasing is extremely sus. The last one in particular: “to protect the feelings and safety of marginalized groups”

lumping discriminatory and offensive together
lumping feelings and safety together
oh yeah, its editorializing time
All wealth above a certain limit should be redistributed to address income inequality
Donald Trump Voters: 39%
That’s what freaked the shit out of the Republican establishment in 2016 about Trump, it wasn’t him being uncouth, it was him idly saying “yeah we should hike the taxes on hedge fund managers” and getting zero flack from his base for it. It was threatening to reveal that rank and file Republicans aren’t “no new tax” hardliners, they just don’t want their taxes to go up.
Did trump even increase any taxes? I thought his accomplishment was that he lowered it for “everyone.” And the result being the average joe got an extra $50 while millionaires and billionaires got to keep hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars
No that was just campaign trail rhetoric. The irony in Trump is that for all his anti-establishment, drain the swamp bluster, he tends to parrot and go along with those around him are saying. So once he was in office, he got surrounded by careerist Republicans and his policies ended up being mostly Republican boilerplate, except for his erratic protectionist trade policies.
How are any of these far-left? Especially the gun thing?
It’s center-right at best lol
fuck free speech all my homies hate free speech
