(#5127) We liberal progressives will save our society

      The only thing of any substance, negatively I will add, that conservatives bring to our society is their wanton disregard for the rights of others. They do not like women to have rights nor do they like people of color to have rights. Evidenced by not passing the Equal Rights Amendment to our national Constitution and their constant gerrymandering of people of color to dilute the power of their vote. Now it is clear that I am correct here in my statement of fact that conservatives show superiority toward women and people of color. So why would anyone want to be associated with the republican party? Beats the hell out of me since it is clear they do not represent anything good about our species.
     I can only come to grips with why by assuming a low level of understanding about the nature of all of our struggles. I think they get their struggles but are not able to grasp that everyone else has equal or more dire struggles. Why would seniors want to gamble on eliminating their own, and their children's Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid? Because they believe that women and others are more a priority to control than their own mostly only means of income and healthcare? Seems highly illogical so am I missing something here? I don't think so because I have yet to see what that could be in all the years I have been fighting for these liberal progressive programs.
     The abortion issue has shown us that republicans say what they mean and when they say they are going to eliminate a right for anyone, believe them. Take their word for it because they are dead set on accomplishing their goal of removing rights and insurance programs aimed at helping all in our society. The deviousness of the republican party is that they let slip their intentions, then deny them before you cast your ballot, then go back to their intentions once they have received your vote. They don't like women, people of color, and even the poor to have power that in their way of thinking should not have to share, thus the evidence of voter suppression in poor counties by republicans. Democracy is not a value to them if they cannot control the outcome of how democracy operates. Again, why would you be a republican who only wants to divide and conquer? Have you lost all sense of human rights?
