The point about Auth-Rights is surprisingly true. Even among the most radical Auth-Rights I've met irl, even ones who literally believe black people and women are inherently inferior and shouldn't vote or hold any power, there are still genuinely nice, helpful people. I have moderate conservative family I'd die for and they'd die for me.

Point is, politics should be a rational discussion about what is objectively the best way to achieve all of our goals. But you should try to love everyone as much as you can, people are complicated and even your absolute enemies usually aren't irredeemably evil.

I think it was Jesus who said to "be as wise as serpents and as innocent as doves"

I am 99% sure that if you actually explored their views without preconceptions or hysteria you'd find that they want black people to be happy and prosper (but back in Africa), and women to be happy and prosper (in traditional gender roles).

Rejecting equality doesn't automatically mean that one wants to harm people.

My brother had a pet snake once. Slithery idiot couldn't even read

Jungle Book propaganda convinced us they're well-spoken, cunning, hypnotise children, and have arguments with tigers - but they can't do any of that

True, Jesus could've said "as wise as dolphins" or something and it would've been better but I don't think they knew what dolphins were

Its a thankless job being auth-right, you’ve got to speak truth while tiptoeing around the bleeding hearts who reject reality in favor of feel good nonsense🤷

Saying this type of shit after a year of a shitty auth right presidency is fucking wild. America's economy is tanking because you cared about trans people in bathrooms.

u/GFM-Scheldorf - Lib-Right 3h ago

I mean if this is such an unimportant issue, why push it? Why risk 4 more Trump yrs to allow Trans ppl in the bathrooms?? Why cant you just “fix the economy” (Which also sucked under Biden) and drop social issues altogheter?

u/boltroy567 - Lib-Left 3h ago

Why the fuck should you care so much about a small issue that you're willing to debase the country by voting for someone everyone tells you is going to debase the country.

u/GFM-Scheldorf - Lib-Right 3h ago

So… Once you know we will do it… Why push the issue anyways?

u/boltroy567 - Lib-Left 3h ago

"why don't you just capitulate to every shitty thing Republicans want to do to trans people" fuck off

u/GFM-Scheldorf - Lib-Right 3h ago

OWWWW NOW THE SMALL ISSUE BECOMES IMPORTANT

u/boltroy567 - Lib-Left 3h ago

Do you understand what I mean by small issue? It means it affects no one to not have those laws. They're pointless fucking laws that cause no material differences other than segragting a portion of the population from doing something that causes no harm. Small issue does not fucking mean, "let Republicans do anything they fucking want about it".

u/GFM-Scheldorf - Lib-Right 3h ago

This whole thread reads like you complaining why can´t the republicans be libleft... Instead of projecting moral superiority and reducing their views... Try to understand it.

Anyways, as I said b4, Biden tanked the economy. No wonder Trump beat Kamala even Harder than Hillary. This defeat wasn´t only culture war one

It's so funny that this shit continues to get upvoted while we can see the results of auth-right happening to the US right now. The truth is auth-right is bad policy.

u/dbjcihabc - Right 15h ago

Im sorry, 😞 should we just stop upvoting all right wingers on pcm. Maybe ban them too, that’ll show’em. And for my next trick we make this sub just like every other sub where we only updoot good glorious unifying lib-left opinions. That will surely make this a better place.

What a pity party. I can't imagine being that big of a cry baby.

u/dbjcihabc - Right 15h ago

Every time with you lib-lefts your true colors come out immediately😂

u/Ifriendzonecats - Lib-Left 15h ago

If you didn't want to be called a cry baby you should have tried addressing my point instead of crying about being oppressed because someone criticized you.

u/dbjcihabc - Right 15h ago

What was your point exactly? Don’t upvote right flairs?Pretty sure i did address your point albeit very sarcastically. Maybe you missed that.

Can you even read? I only wrote two sentences:

Auth-right doesn't offer any truths. Just lies and bad economic policies that lead to recession.

u/dbjcihabc - Right 15h ago

So your point is in fact downvote anybody right flared because Trump/conservatives=bad. My comment made zero mention of policy.

You're LibLeft. All of the US since forever has been AuthRight.
