Really is the anything thread, huh?

I would suggest cutting the political chat as I doubt any minds are being changed here. My only reason to say this is that the conversation is already without nuance and is probably going to get ugly and/or personal soon.

Besides, if you really want this kind of divided, pitched, war of words, we have the Richie thread.

Someone's actually not offended? I'm surprised this didn't hit channel 7 news as a 'Hate Crime'...

Nah, I'm not easily offended. Besides being apolitical, I have a number of LGBT friends (who arent easily offended, either), and I find it amusing that a symbol for liberty is depicted in the same picture as guns, beer, and Trump. It's a shame there isn't a 'C' or they could have included the Confederate flag, too.

I'd think Trump critics would say Lady Liberty should be in a big red circle with a slash across it. But, imo, it's great she's included because it's been obvious to me for a long time, that both sides want to limit freedom in some respect and they all use political buzz words to rile everybody up and swing opinions their way. So it's all marketing, to me. And, for better or worse, the liberal press has control of the mic so Republicans are almost always going to come off as worse than Democrats. TBH, I don't have any confidence in any of them

That's a decent post.

It's a sport in which each half of the country is rooting for 'their side' to win; which results in them justifying anything their key politicians say and do (obviously, at the expense of the opposing team) as supposed on trying to find common points in different ideologies to solve certain issues. A successful political process in general is usually based on compromises, but the current two (real) party system in US IMO forces division.

For this reason I much prefer the multi-party system in most European countries, where A) voters actually have a choice for the election; and B) post-election politicians actually get to make coalitions based on policy agreements on different issues. It doesn't always work out perfectly (d'uh, it's still politics!), but I find it less fundamentally flawed than what Americans have.

I actually made those posts to mock Rdkopper's uncultivated partisan rhetoric, not to make a point myself.
