Everything they do, literally everything, is to cause pain and suffering, and then they blame it on their perceived enemy.

That statement applies to Putin and his oligarchs too.

That's the modern-day Republican party. It was bad 20-30 years ago when they had something the public could agree on. A lot of people liked the idea of fiscal conservatism, for example. They liked the idea of personal freedom, whatever that is. As I have stated many times before, they had policies. I just didn't agree with them.

Now? Now they only want to spread lies and propaganda, pretending to believe in the things they once espoused. They stand for nothing but raw greed and power and wilt away truth and ethics. They have nothing except lies, cheating, stealing, and disinforming.

Then, inevitably when things go south, they blame liberalism for the county's ills. They only want to defeat us because they only want us out of the way. We are not the opposition to them; we are the enemy.

They are far more aligned with Putin and his belief in autocracy than democracy. Just another chapter in the dictator's playbook, as it goes.

Maybe one day, once the mess is cleaned up (again) by the Dems, we can change the locks and keep the fascists away from our democracy forever.
