If they want less government involvement then explain to me why they make it their cause to forbit abortion, label abortion pills unsafe and even make teaching scientific theories forbidden?
I though they were about the government being involved less not more?
Yeah I dont agree with that either.
Do you think whether you agree with the conservative stances that you defend has any bearing on how factually incorrect you are?
Well, I dont agree 100% with either side and they both have their flaws. I agree with more of Republicans points today, but abortion is definitely a huge no. Democrats have a lot of flaws too, to me its who's pros outweigh the cons, and as it stands Republicans are winning for me at the moment. Note that ibused to be a die hard Democrat and I even donated to Pete Buttigiege's comaign as well as Bernie Sanders (even had a bumper sticker lol). Democrats have lost my vote due to them not focusing onnreal world issues and living in fairy tale land. I care more about being a realist rather than an idealist. Facts over feelings.
I can only assume the people down voting you really like restricting abortion rights. Otherwise it makes no sense.
Lol I think they got it confused 🤣
