It’s truly incomprehensible to most blue/libs that magas and conservatives are genuinely and permanently deranged cultists
They really believe it’s possible to use words and logic to convince them of things, hence the poster being confused why they aren’t convinced of anything
Because our elected officials refuse to talk like this and many constantly stress how bipartisan they try to be with everything. Saying “about 35% of this country are raving psychopaths who can not be compromised with and must be disempowered” is not an easy feel good campaign message but it’s what people need to hear.
Anyone who says “reach across the isle” in the primary is an automatic no. These people are not interested in governing. They are openly hostile.
We enter parliament in order to supply ourselves, in the arsenal of democracy, with its own weapons. If democracy is so stupid as to give us free tickets and salaries for this bear’s work, that is its affair. We do not come as friends, nor even as neutrals. We come as enemies. As the wolf bursts into the flock, so we come.

^ Maybe we should prevent this sort of thing, no?
Yeah it’s incredibly dangerous to simply ignore or pretend that these are rational people to negotiate with
They certainly aren’t negotiating with us so I’m not sure when these compromise is king types will realize this is a kill or be killed situation
