The difference is that their statement seems appropriate to the context, your statement seems to be roping in something that does belong which makes me think that you make every argument about Israel/Palestine. Hence the comment about a single brush, since I cant imagine how else you could make this about that.

The sheer number of trump voters I've heard say they were originally gonna vote for Bernie is larger than you would imagine.
People are angry the system is rigged, trump channels that anger and says he will solve it. Granted he won't and they're dipshits for believing him, but that's how it goes.
Good question. That's the problem with labeling shit by a term that gets hard to nail down instead of expressing the intent behind your usage of the word. My definition of a centrist (the unwarpped version) is someone in the middle of left and right, but everyone on the Internet hears in the middle of Dems and GOP, which puts them quite to the right.
The more we use labels that are constantly evolving the less we can communicate effectively
What's the world like when you can paint every topic with a single brush and walk away feeling smug?
Around 15-20 years ago these idiots so easily manipulated with labels in the US were only on the fringe (or at a minimum, less obvious in their existence), now they're a political force. Do not sit there in smug self assurance that it definitely cant happen there, because that's how it begins...
Then again I dont think the first world countries of the world have been cutting education for decades now. And you also didnt have Regan and Citizens United.
If you think that this sort of thing is just in America I have a bridge to sell you....
It fits alot of topics. People just stop learning by middle school and go through their lives ignorant to the world outside of their limited personal experience. It's not surprising that the world's population is so easily manipulated into being scared of everything...
Trust me, the US economy unraveling will be felt by everyone, do you think a country this big, and so militaristic is not going to make our economy everyone elses problem. Half of the reason I've cited for not wanting children is that I'm not trying to raise a kid to watch them die in the next global catastrophe we are racing full speed towards...
It's infuriating how ignorant the majority of our country is to the state of affairs...
But hey, at least our 401k's grew a bunch before the dollar became worthless...
~~I dont understand, how will prices raising lower the demand until it was cheaper than before prices rose?~~
Ohhh you don't live in this dumpster fire, lucky
See the problem with this stupid labeling is that everyone has a different definition so no one knows what the fuck anyone else is saying. Just knock it off with the labels, attribute the quality or idea you mean instead of a lazy fucking label...
You know how many conversations Ive been in where i was confused until i realized the word meant different things to us. Seriously the labeling in politics is getting out of control, everyone groups everything up into a category because it makes it easy to manipulate people against it, so noone knows what the word means anymore because everyone is defining it as something different every day.
Not using labels is double plus good...
No judgement, just curious, but is the idea here that conservative men should not be allowed to have sex since they don't respect women? All for it, agree 100%. But i have a hard time imagining a feminist being with that type of man anyways, since the majority of feminist Ive met have self respect. So then you're not sleeping with any men to punish them, and yourself, for conservative men? I feel like I'm missing something.
Or is this article just implying 4B is something completly different than what it actually is? You know, cuz clickbait isn't concerned with being factual...
I am talking about the voter swing required for trump and GOP to sweep the whole government. That isn't because of Trump supporters, they would vote trump if he personally knifed their mother in front of them. That is because of disenfranchised fence sitters who put zero effort into educating themselves and then vote for a change of leadership off of a gut instinct that a different person cant do worse. Its ignorant and wrong, but look no farther than worldwide elections this year showing a huge ousting of incumbent officials. Inflation has been unreal, and the uneducated think the president controls literally everything (see the "I did that" stickers on gas stations nationwide) People want change but they don't know how to get it, and here is a man yelling and screaming about how he is going to change shit.
I know its difficult to imagine being this ignorant, but i truly believe this is how a lot of people operate. Its not malice, its ignorance and apathy.
