    I don’t get you US americans with your political stuff, your terminology seems to be all over the place. Today democrats are libertarian, next day it’s the republicans. This is literally authoritarianism at play by definition, their liberties are taken away. And where does the evil left come from, that state seems to be run by Republicans, i.e. extreme rightwing.

    I mean, ever since your election the whole world knows your politics is broken beyond repair, but this is still bloody confusing to read.

      LOL. Yes. I totally agree. That’s why I said that even I don’t know what to call myself. People question me on my views and I’ve been called everything from a tree hugging hippie to one step away from being an authoritarian. Who freaking knows. I’m for everyone minding their own business and your rights end when they start to step on mine. Marry whomever you want - that is of age, dress how you like, read whatever you like, do whatever you want to your own body, and don’t try to dictate your beliefs to me. The slow burn of our country started a few administrations ago. People are just now starting seeing the smoke today.
