When Dick Cheney says you're too far right and too fascist for his tastes and to point out he's voting Democratic against you, brother, you got some very serious issues, and the entire GOP should reflect on that!

@GaryMarcus Let's examine that point!
If you think I can't understand "the left," then for same reasons, you can't understand "the right."
Many understand that Dems have gone so far left that some Republicans now occupy traditinal Dem policy space.
*MAGA is about restoring the Republic

@GaryMarcus "Traditional Republicans" that want to ban abortion and gay marriage? Look, the people no longer support political ideologies, of any kind. We want reform. The only one talking actual policy is Trump. And when in office, didn't abuse that power.

Never has the dividing line between traditional Republicans—who wish to preserve the Republic —and MAGA– who wish to eviscerate it—been so stark.

This is truly incredible.

Former Republican VP Dick Cheney comes out swinging against Trump.

The statement by @sd_marlow engages in a political discussion about the ideological positions of Democrats and Republicans, and the role of MAGA in American politics. The tone is assertive and aims to challenge the opposing viewpoint by suggesting that both sides have difficulty understanding each other. The statement also implies that the Democratic Party has shifted leftward, causing some Republicans to adopt traditional Democratic policies. The mention of MAGA and Trump indicates a defense of their political stance.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not appear to intend harm but rather to engage in a political debate. However, the assertive tone could potentially escalate tensions.
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement respects the privacy and dignity of others, as it does not engage in personal attacks or harassment. [+1]
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement attempts to promote understanding by addressing perceived misconceptions about political ideologies, though it may not foster empathy or compassion due to its confrontational tone.
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in constructive criticism by challenging the opposing viewpoint, but it could be seen as dismissive of the other side's perspective, which may hinder productive dialogue.
