Conservatives often want an in-group, that is protected by law, but is not bound by it; and an out-group, not protected by law, but bound by it. Get ready for this to get way worse in case of a Trump victory, alongside with crackpot dictators starting a dick measurement contest of who can ban the most harmless things in the shortest amount of time.

Basically modern-day Russia still uses Stalinist newspeak, and tankies take it in good faith. In Stalinist newspeak, "imperialism" meant "opposition of the Soviet empire".

Another thing is, tankies also think the USA is the only obstacle in a global communist revolution, and that social autocracies like Russia and China are not going hinder any attempt at it. China is now also exploiting the global south, and I cannot convince tankies that the Hungaran Fudan university isn't being gifted for free by the Chinese, but is on a loan that Hungarian taxpayers have to pay back.

PINGAS

I meant expanding my anus to fit a pumpkin in, but OK...

If you replace "democrat" with "mainstream liberals", and "republicans" with "conservatives", then you got a meme about politics in general in most of the developed world.

I don't like them, but it was still heartbreaking to see Demokratikus Koalíció, a mainstream liberal party that was probably the most progressive in the whole Hungarian opposition block at that point, is cozying up to anti-trans ideas.

How can I expand it to that size?

The Japanese term is otoko no ko (男の娘)

Russia be like: "Since the USA wasn't taken accountable for its war crimes, I commit my own!"

I wonder how China will justify its own if they get to that point...

Trump supporters be like: "Um, ackchually, Trump wants to lower taxes, maybe only for the billionaires, but they can invest that into new jobs instead of paying for the state. Even if he outlawed homosexuality or transgenderism, a next president can re-legalize it!" (The last one was a real conversation I had with my mother about the child protection law of Fidesz, which so far seems only protecting the sensibilities of her boyfriend, who often makes such homophobic rants on disgust, you immediately know the real motive wasn't the protection of children, unless you call childishly homophobic men children.)

I probably can get 4 of my friends to join.
