This is nothing new. Younger voters always vote democrat, then when they start paying taxes and realize it's all a ponzi scheme they flip. Specifically when you dangle free **** in front of them then never produce anything but division, poverty, proxy wars, and broken promises.

Not like it matters. Another term under Biden and we'll hit the 40 trillion mark. This year we're estimated to pay 638 billion just in interest, and by 2028 we'll hit the 1 trillion dollar mark in interest. At that point, this country will be on the verge of destruction and all this feminist trans **** will go right out the window.

Literally no one is as racist as white liberals, especially the ones yelling the loudest about "anti-racism". Not in America, anyway.

My multi-racial family has lived on each coast, in deep blue areas, and in deep red Texas areas. I am fully aware of how much race is used to define them in each.

Look man, I'm not saying this to throw any shade or do anything other than share my personal experience as a guy that grew up in California and attended Texas A&M. I heard actual racist stuff in Texas in college that I've never heard in California. My grandparents were both Texans and I assure you that 3/4 said racist stuff, sometimes appalling stuff. That's not to say that they are not racists in Boston or LA or that maybe it's worse there, just that in my personal experience, the volume of it was higher in Texas than in California.

---

That only applies if you don't think racism against whites or asians is possible.

---

Or racism between blacks and hispanics. People of all races are racist. It's not just whites.

No you can't. I farm and take PLC payments and subsidized crop insurance so I'm out too.

Sounds like you grew up sheltered in some upscale, hoity toity areas. Got some hispanic buddies in Long Beach and Inglewood. You want to hear some racist ****, go hang with them in the local poker room in Bell.

If you read my previous post, I think I'm fairly clear in my distain about progressives and how I think that they are actual racists. I have experienced anti-white discrimination in California. That said, dropping the N-word or referring to people that don't like spending money by a major world religion were things that I did hear in Texas that I have never heard in California. Please don't misunderstand this comment as me saying that there were racists everywhere, or that it was a common every day occurrence, it was just some thing that I noticed was way more prevalent in one place versus the other.

---

Right, so as long as you ignore racism against whites and asians which is so common it barely garners notice then Texas is more racist than California. Just making sure that's clear. To me all racism is racism and I know you are implying that but then your fallback is to discount it and call Texas more racist.

Y'all are just lying if you think the Jim Crow Democrats of the early to mid 20th century would support the modern day ultra liberal Democratic Party of today. Hell there are many of them still alive today and most if not all vote Republican.

Can you list the people in Congress who switched, since you seem so certain it happened, Mr. School Teacher?

---

Most of them have retired seeing as they switched about 40 years ago
Currently Senator Kennedy of LA iirc is the only current office holder who,started his career as a D
Prior notable switches
Sen Gramm of Texas
Gov Perry of Texas
Senator Richard Shelby of Alabama who prior to Doug Jones was the last Democrat to win state wide office in Alabama

The switch happened in the 90's. Carol Swain with Prager U has a nice video on this.

Probably can't compete with an Air Force pilot but I was in infantry korea on the dmz and then in desert storm before I was 21. Given rations or limit of 4 cases a month in Korea for beer but couldn't drink in the states. Pretty real world stuff. I get it though I am an anomaly just like the pilot above and now have kids in college that I wonder if they could handle being in the army, traveling the world, being in harms way, paying own bills including college, graduating debt free by paying for it, finding a job, an apartment and car on their own.

Old man yelling at clouds I guess but I agree with another poster that the world has gone soft.

I keep telling my kids in a softer world and you can sit and wait for someone to give you a hand out which are getting bigger all the time even though they are small in the scheme of things but……….. in a softer world you have more opportunity to make something of yourself if you choose to and enjoy all the world has to offer.

I feel like the youth group is more engaged in politics now. Once you get deep enough it's harder to reverse. In the past youth could be liberal but not fully engaged and as they got older and start to care they are at a different mindset than current 18-20 year old.

Also can't blame people under 30 for being against capitalism. Those people experience financial crisis. We had 10% unemployment and over 10 million homes foreclosed. Banks got bailed out and richer and more powerful today. Those 10 million homeowners that were foreclosed got nothing. Then wealth gap widens throughout 2010s. Then COVID which distorted everything. And here we are with inflation today which if you're younger probably impacts you more because you're making less money.

If I'm under 30, have lots of debt, can't afford kids, can't afford houses, no more job security, I'd be pissed off too.

---

Weak sauce !!!. the 70's with very high interest rates, inflation, political fumbling (Carter) were FAR worse.

We didn't go candy-assed socialistic. We went to the right. Got a first hand demo of leftist failures that in time brought us Reagan and into the light

---

Based off the numbers, the 70s were better time still for young people than today. 1980 median income was around $21K. Adjusted for inflation thats $77K. Median house in 1980 was about $47K. Adjusted for inflation thats about $175K

Today median income in US is about $70K and median home price in Texas is $325K and USA is $400K. Americans today make roughly the same they did in 1980 except their cost of living is much higher. That's not good for society.

---

Sounds like a case for lowering income taxes and government spending, so that people get to keep more of their hard earned money.

---

Marginal income taxes are substantially lower than they were in the 70s.

---

This is ignoring how the tax code changed in terms of income classification.

And corporations are actually people since people work for them. If the government wants to make laws regulating them that can limit how they do business, that affects their profit which in turn affects jobs.

Don't forget that the law allowed unions to contribute massively as well. No wonder so many infrastructure bills are being written to purely benefit unions in the north east.

Insulting? The only consistent policy in your platform is to call those that disagree with you racists homophobic sexists.

Don't know why I bother. You're stunning lack of education about government as a gov teacher speaks volumes about your ability to comprehend my point regarding your party's only policy.

Name calling is not making them vote stupidly. Kids have been voting differently from their parents since the Dawn of time……when their parents provide well enough for the child to not starve, to be seasonally be comfortable and given enough money so they do t have to earn any money.

Happened over time. FDR was a progressive Democrat who obviously massively expanded the size of government. Then Kennedy and LBJ pushing the Civil Rights Act as Democrats in the 60's caused more switching. Finally the Religious Conservatives becoming firmly Republican during the Reagan era in the 80's.

I'm 35? My wife, and I both skim these threads and it's sad to see how passionately leftists can act, out of false beliefs.

Glad to know everyone is 55+ and has the life experience required to lay out the truth of the matter, despite the trolls.

We both are going to make hiring decisions soon, and have discussed ad nauseum how to identify people like the OP in the selection process. The last thing we ever want is to accidentally someone who hates the country we live in, hates people with different points of view, and trolls older people for their own twisted pleasure.

Agree. But the left has done a good job of convincing young that if they don't work, they will still get their bills paid, still pay for their kids college etc and production is evil and profit is bad. Talk about suckers- they buy into this sheet, because our ruling class of elected officials have convinced the young they need tyhem all the while living a lavish lifestyle in DC.

They're definitely suckers.

I like listening to conservative radio when I'm driving, but as much as I enjoy it I have never been under the impression that these people want anything more than to sell me a product so they can get paid, which allows them to stay on air.

The left however actually thinks the democrat talking heads/politicians/pundits like them or think like them, and that's what's so hillarious yet terrifying about it. Democrat politicians know this, and use the hell out of it.

The leftists on here need to ask themselves a question. Why do regime changes often employ college students to attack political opponents?

Yup, sharing an apartment with your family, in laws and parents, and no access to your own car, even electric ones is going to be a hard awakening. Lol, running down to grab fast food and then going to protest won't be possible. Fast food will be gone and you'll get shot for protesting. Lol, the capitalist they hate for working 60 hours a week is not the enemy. Democrat/Marxists are the enemy.

Some folks don't pay attention to history. At the time of the Civil War the Democrats, particularly the southern ones, were the ones who were pro-slavery while the Republicans were mainly in the north and New England and calling for an end to slavery. Following the war it was Democrats that formed the KKK. Yes, there has been racism in the north and New England throughout, but it was the south where Jim Crow was most prevalent, hanging of blacks, black churches blown up, separation of the races most prevalent. Pretty much all on the southern Democrats. In the 20th century George Wallace, Strom Thurmond, and the like were very conservative. And we're Democrats. Evangelicals used to be primarily Democrat. When the Dems got a CATHOLIC! elected President and then Johnson pushed through civil rights legislation and desegregation many southern Democrats and Evangelicals switched to the Republican Party.

Look at a map of Party affiliation. Red states, blue states, and purple states. In the 19th century the north and northeast was a mix of Republicans and those Democrats who were mostly against slavery. The south was mostly Democrat and obviously pro-slavery. Now look at the current affiliation map. The north is still a mix of Republicans and Democrats and more of the Independents while the northeast is primarily Democrat and more progressive, with some Independents. The south is easily more conservative, and while there's a mix (snowbirds looking for warmer weather) Republicans are easily the majority in most places. The Evangelicals are now primarily Republican.

AggieCo2023 said:

How can you argue a switch never took place? How did the segregationists, KKK members and confederates of old become the multi-racial BLM party if no switch ever happened? Please explain

The racists are still on the left. Same as it ever was.

Wait...someone is trotting out the bs party switch theory??? Some of you are full on clueless.

Do your homework. That was your party

Minnesota, Wisconsin, whatever, the communists/left always want to re-write/forget about 'some' history.

Thousands of real world examples of socialism throughout history, but they are convinced that THEY will do it right!!!!

Sarah Hoyt has a nice piece out about 'acceptable sources' and our illegitimate (blue state) elections. Worth reading.

Quote:

---

Yesterday at Power Line (Yeah, I know. Note I rarely link them anymore) I found myself reading a baffling article in which they talked of how Chicago and Wisconsin and whatever the other race was had gone left, and analyzing the causes. As if causes beyond "the vote is rigged" made any sense. They immediately fell into line with the big megaphone of the left, and accused those "agitating against abortion" of being guilty for the losses. Which frankly is why the left keeps agitating for abortion. Not because it's an immensely popular topic or that the right talks about it much, after being quietly glad the national mandate was overturned, but because it gives them coverage for the massive, rank, obvious fraud.

And our side knows there was fraud. Impossible not to know in 2020, and those who paid close attention to important contests in 2022 saw it too, the same impossible numbers cropping up, as the automated fraud kicked in from the machines.

But because the mainstream press keeps treating those elections as legitimate, we eventually fall into treating them as such, and looking for causes for them.

---

I didn't think I was unique. But I see hear people talking about race relations getting worse. That's not my personal experience. I have friends from all races. People are people. There are people who I have over to my home, and I have been to their homes. People of all races. We break bread together. I've stayed overnight at their homes. And likewise. It's about relationships. Politics don't govern my heart. The love of Jesus does. So even people who I don't have those types of relationships with, I don't view them through the prism of race.

I've seen racists in Texas and the deep south. But I have also seen racists in the northeast and midwest. I have seen people who descibe themselves as liberal, who are racists. I see people who descibe themselves as conservative, who are racists.

But personally, I don't treat people of other races any differently now, than I did before. To God be the glory.

I think the left/communists want to keep folks on their side as agitated as possible, so that when needed they can create a season of fires/riots/insurrection again a la fentanyl floyd 2020.

That was politically useful for them and very expensive for America, plus highly divisive (causing the right to strongly distrust the justice department/judicial system, not just Democrat officials), a trifecta of beneficial outcomes to the CCP.
