The Republican Agenda: Divide; Conquer; Rule Forever.

[Cyrano]

The Republican Party cannot survive without a "THEM." And the "THEM" consists of: Black people; brown people; immigrants; LGBTQs; Democrats; those who want to take away your guns; those who are "pro-abortion"; those who don't believe in God; those who believe in a different god; anyone who doesn't want the return of "Dear Leader" to the White House; and anyone else they decide to make a "THEM."

Republicans must define themselves by what they are against, not by what they are for. Because if those who vote for them ever understood what they are really for, no Republican would ever again be elected to any office.

This scenario has been true throughout the history of the world. Every would-be dictator, authoritarian, "owner"/"savior" of humanity, needs to control the masses by giving them someone to blame for anything and everything, and then turning that blame into hatred.

At this dangerous moment in history, our freedoms are really, (Really) on the line. If we lose the House, the Senate, and, in two years, the presidency, America is over. Republicans keep saying they want to "own" us. By 2025 they may well "own" us. In the same way plantation cotton growers owned slaves. Ironically, many of those who always voted for them will find themselves to be declared among the "THEMS."

What the fuck is it going to take before the vast majority of Americans wake up and stop those who would "own" us all?

1. The vast majority of Americans are against the Putin Party,

8 million more people voted for president Biden.

More people from where I am from, Pa. vote Democratic, yet every election the Putin Party gains more seats.

The Putin Party is against democracy, the Putin Party needs America to be just like Russia to keep minority rule.

3. Between gerrymandering, voter suppression and,

some states, just throwing out the "wrong" votes, they are on the verge of stealing America.

And to stop this unthinkable horror from happening, we are doing ... ?

2. K&R, Texas and Missouri are text book dictatorships not democracies. They have the lowest voter

... access in the union therefore their leadership pols go around acting like straight up nut cases.

The GQP wants that for the rest of Ameirca

4. As Yoda would say: "Strong is the stupid here."

5. As I have said before - they don't care that they're happy. They care that you're miserable.

That's the conservative agenda in a nutshell. It's all about "owning the libs" and "making liberals cry". They don't care about who or what they stomp on, they just care that they stomp on people. Which is completely sociopathic and damn near psychopathic behavior. In the conservative mindset, nobody is happy, but the other side is miserable and worthless, and that's all that matters to them, which is insane.

6. When will "THEM" unite? Too many victims act as if they are alone.

Day to day it’s like a merry go round: Asians attacked; immigrants separated; BLM civil rights violations …. Women’s rights …

Divided each victim becomes an “other” but if each time we recognize the commonality it would be hard to beat us all together.
