New polling shows national Republicans and Iowa Republican caucusgoers were more interested in “law and order” than battling “woke” schools, media and corporations.

    We have a conservative party and a proto-fascist party.

    The vast majority of Americans are neither.

    Edit: probably not vast, but an easy majority

      Nah, look at the numbers. Three quarters support for single payer.

      Hell, when you explain “defund the police” it has overwhelming majority support even by conservatives.

      Vast majority are very liberal, just too busy being buried by capitalism to vote.

        I feel like a lot of progressive ideals lately are simply plagued but godawful marketing.

        Great ideas that are given a verbal shorthand that is confusing, misleading, needlessly polarizing, easily demonized, or all of the above.

        Pride, Black Lives Matter, Occupy Wall Street, Antifa, Defund the Police, Woke, Antiwork, and lots lots more…
