Why the shift to the right?

This is how some people see liberals



And this is how they see conservatives



Perspective is a bitch!

Yeah... If this guy was beating a cop over the head with that flagpole.

 

How other people (Like me) see hippies https://pixabay.com/illustrations/smiley-sunglasses-pink-glasses-2616203/

And how they ( I ) see Retrumplicans:

The Confederate battle flag, which rioters flew inside the US Capitol, has long been a symbol of white insurrection

Conservatives my ass!

 

Ah yes, commie fag junkies, every one of them!

 

Not all. From the photo of the "Patriots"invading the halls of Congress, it looks like there's some overlap. And if you're talkin' Retrumplicans, there's a quite a variety. Some are Neo-Nazi nutjobs. Others are Neo-Confederate nutjobs. And then there are the Putin-lovin' nutjobs. And the Bible thumping nutjobs. And the male Milllenial misfits inhabiting their Mom's basements (aka Proud Boys, Boogaloo Bois. Gamergate Cyberpunks). And whatever you call these slimeballs:






And of course the Trump political base:

 

What I meant was, people like this see hippies as commie fag junkies.

 

Right. And the ones who see them that way tend to be the ones depicted supra. (post #45).‘O wad some Power the giftie gie us / To see oursels as ithers see us!’ (Robert Burns, "To A Louse")

 

*sigh* Left/Right is very confusing atm .............yours or mine

Maybe it would be better to stop thinking in boxes so much(polarisation)



The answer almost always lies in the middle........imo

Mzzls

Ps.......there is no real left/right anymore everybody runs behind the money?

 

It’s not any more complicated than the picture below, the price of fuel goes up , the prices of everything else goes with it.

 

and fuel prices are controlled by?

 

The Right's Response To The Baby Formula Shortage...

 

You may know this, but the average person does not even know the name of the local Mayor.

All the general public knows is that the price of everything is increasing dramatically.

 

Which is the fault of who?

 

The general public has no idea,

 

So having an authoritarian right wing government should fix all that?

I guess if the "general public" is no longer allowed to have ideas... problems solved, right?

 

You don’t see the rising cost of everything a problem?
The average family lives paycheck to paycheck.

 

It doesn’t take a collage education to see the price of everything has jumped considerably.
