My point is that they're construction is inherently self-destructive. They have made their base extremely susceptible to populism.

If a populist candidate from the other direction arises, a large portion of the Fox News base will support them. You mark my words. Just think about how quickly they turn against Fox News when they don't do what they want

Should have gone to court over it. It was stolen, not your fault at all.

Honestly, Fox News is going to call anyone against them a socialist. That's just what they're going to do. There are even some Republican policies which can be construed as socialist, such as public spending on schools, even private schools.

The average voter really doesn't care about if something is socialist or not. They clearly don't care if something is fascist. They only care about the perception of how it will affect their life.

If you tell people they're not going to have to pay for healthcare ever again, or that cannabis will be legal, or that you will fix the massive wealth gap, they will vote for you. Nominal Republicans would even vote for you. The downside of using the word socialism like that, is that Fox News that has removed the meaning of socialism from their base, meaning that actual socialism will not seem like such a big deal.

Very small. The VAST majority of the time that condoms fail is when they're improperly used. The amount of QA testing on them is enormous and very good.

Obviously for this reason you should buy a decent brand of condoms.

Good looking people will attract women. They clearly didn't think he was serious.

First of all, you'll be able to get their vibe from a political conversation unless they're very well informed and very intelligent, which conservatives generally are not.

Second, if you're forcing them to lie then it creates cognitive dissonance in their brain. So at the very least that can create genuine progress, as problematic as that may be.

Just don't date conservative men. First date, ask them their politics. It's literally that simple.

You should really have a suite of questions to weed out partners you don't want. This is what the first few dates are really for. Ask them their politics, if they voted, and who they voted for, their stance on abortion etc.

All you're going to get with this is friendly fire. Conservatives generally do not prefer leftist women.

The words country and nation are absolutely not interchangeable, no matter how lay people use the terms.

But you see that would be an intelligent argument.

That's not the kind of argument these people make.

They would say it's because police are getting better at their jobs or something
