Fri Jan 29, 2021, 11:28 PM

comes down to who is perceived as a 'true' citizen and who is not. Much of white America and those who vote Republican are big beneficiaries of 'socialism' but don't perceive it that way. Many union workers, military, police etc - all benefiting from left wing structures - rail against 'the left' all day long. Because they don't want 'the other' getting in on the action.

I want Right wing nuts to remember that Reagan had no empathy for people with Aids and it goes on from there
This is the problem with the republican party has been empathy for well over 50 years and they have done nothing to make it better, they have only made it worse.

But it's the same basic phenomenon that exists amongst a large section of middle aged (gen-x) white women that many have talked about for years now. They seem to view power/empowerment with imitating RW white men.

Fri Jan 29, 2021, 10:47 PM
Jan 2021

The Tweeters were attacking Hogg for dissing Boebert as a dropout when she didn't finish school. They deride it as a cheap attack on a teen mom who had left school to care for her child.

Is this a clumsy miscue by Hogg? I know of several teen Moms who finished school on time. And the hypocrisy of her Conservative ideology NOT ALLOWING HER TO have contraceptives, or abortion then finding defense in being a teen Mom doesn't seem legitimate. Hogg may be making the observation that Boebert had poor parental guidance, showed some lack of maturity, and poor judgment. I know a lot of kids make mistakes, but unless rape was involved, even the average teen knows the score with sex.

I know plenty of church goers who use contraception. I also know young moms who had to juggle high school & college while they raised babies. The fact this gal got knocked up is soemthing she brought on herself & made the choice not to advance her education is not something to condone. She wears her extremism &deplorable status like a badge of honor. Threatening to harm other people make her criminal.

People/Tweeters coming to Boebert's defense as a "teen mother" struck me odd. Any child with her as a role model and parent will not have had an advantage in life. Likely a disadvantage and, there was always adoption for the kid so Boebert could once again go to class. Speaking plainly she's a dangerous, uneducated, damaged, pos.
