To be honest, a lot of Republicans are still very respectable. The republican platform is fucked up, but if you are talking to your neighbor, don't make his party affliation equal to his personal belief. A Democrat doesn't believe in everything in the Democrat's platform either.
In that sense, insulting a party is not generally helpful for public discourse.

Republicans and Democrats are the same. If Republicans are the Nazis at home, Democrats are funding the Nazis abroad.
Have you considered people are moving further right because your labeling them as such?
I've said this many times. Republicans are bad...and democrats are just as bad, the only difference is what they pretend to care about. You might've seen a democrat promise good things, but not a single one of them has ever even tried to get any of those things done
"BUT WE DON'T HAVE THE VOTES YET!"
FDR didn't have the votes either. He used his popularity to twist arms for the votes he needed. LBJ did the same thing. AOC and the squad could just as easily do that too, but they've wasted every opportunity they've had to pressure Pelosi and Schumer to do something.
Oh by the way, remember why we couldn't have a vote on medicare for all or raising wages because the current speaker Kevin McCarthy would become speaker? And then when the democrats did nothing at all McCarthy became speaker and the people got nothing?
Did you know that a majority of republican voters want medicare for all once they understand what it is? "We need to go to the center and be against medicare for all to get votes from the other side"
The Republican party was in power when they beat the Confederate States though..? Dumb meme
I still don't understand how so many people equate the party that supports free speech with the Nazis, and equate the party that wants to disarm the poor with the freedom fighters.
