Most people don't know this but the "R" gear means "Race"

Yes, the "R" gear makes the car go backwards just like how the Republican party makes progress in America go backwards. TBH the same logic would apply if the gear was labeled "D". Me and my comrades believe that socialism comes first then communism because if you start in a higher gear the engine will stall out but lower gears are quite slow and don't make full use of the car and its powers.

Or how the R makes the transmission go bye bye when you shift into it thinking it stands for "Race".
