So what now , how do both Republicans and Democrats move forward?
How do they accommodate one another and perhaps work together to get the extreme ends to move out of the way.

I just want to see them scramble their last year in office trying to bank as much as possible and do it poorly which might lead to massive revolts over corruption.

they don't. that's the whole point of the theatre. dividing the american people into two opposing camps with bullshit cultural issues concerning race / gender / guns / abortions... is doing exactly what it's supposed to: distract them from how their economic and political elite are exploiting them like none of their peer countries. just look at how shitty and expensive their healthcare is / how long they have to work to afford a living / their abysmal worker protection / no maternal leave / insane education cost... the list is endless. if people are constantly fighting about the small stuff and manipulated to literally despise the "other side", if they can't even imagine a world where they hold their representatives accountable, they won't mind as much about voting against their own interest - as long as it really pisses off the "other side". that's how america transformed into a de facto oligarchy: both parties' establishment is full of corporate owned politicians, and neither party is interested in fundamentally changing the system to make it work for the people rather than the donor class.

the dems might be slightly less vile and cruel on cultural and social issues, but economically they are both playing the same shitty and corrupt game - and that's not going to change unless by some miracle progressives get elected, corporate america's biggest nightmare...

All DNA misfires and statistical anomalies.
Humans have thousands of them.
Are we to change laws and society in general for them all?
No, of coarse not.
So why do we for the ones listed in your graph?
Because it serves a greater underlying agenda.
It is this agenda I am against.


We generally do actually protect people with genetic birth defects, there is no way in hell you would attack someone with down syndrome the same way you feel comfortable attacking a trans person.

Downs kids are not pedos.
Trannys are.
Hope this helps.

By statistics conservative white christians are actually the most likely to be, but sure, keep deflecting.

By percent its not even close.
Deflector engaged.

edit: by your logic half a cookie is low calorie.
Not because it is, just that there is less of it.
Are you in advertising by chance?

I am glad that you see that trans people are diseased just like people with down syndrome.
