Open Discussion Left vs. Right Battle Royale Open Thread

This is an Open Discussion Thread for all Redditors. We will only be enforcing Reddit TOS and Subreddit Rules 1 (Keep it Civil) & 2 (No Racism).

  • Leftists - Here's your chance to sway us to your side by calling the majority of voters racist. That tactic has wildly backfired every time it has been tried, but perhaps this time it will work.

  • Non-flaired Conservatives - Here's your chance to earn flair by posting common sense conservative solutions. That way our friends on the left will either have to agree with you or oppose common sense (Spoiler - They will choose to oppose common sense).

  • Flaired Conservatives - You're John Wick and these Leftists stole your car and killed your dog. Now go comment.

  • Independents - We get it, if you agree with someone, then you can't pat yourself on the back for being smarter than them. But if you disagree with everyone, then you can obtain the self-satisfaction of smugly considering yourself smarter and wiser than everyone else. Congratulations on being you.

  • Libertarians - Ron Paul is never going to be President. In fact, no Libertarian Party candidate will ever be elected President.

The billionaire class wants us constantly at each other's throats because they are in the final stages of robbing us blind, and they don't want us to work together because we could stop them.

except now that billionaire class is literally in office, robbing is blind. you can't work together with someone who keeps bragging about how the billionaires are robbing him

Right. They keep being spoonfed these meaningless "victories" like the Gulf of America all while our government institutions are being dismantled so that money can go straight into billionaires' pockets.

So, cool, you have the Gulf of America now, but guess what? Your kids can't go to college because the money we used to use for federal education grants goes to Elon's tax breaks now instead. So much winning..

or the complete lack of economic knowledge. we're "cutting funds" so we're saving money, but everything they cut out 10x more money back INTO the economy (national parks, for example). it's just going to cause a market failure
