Reply to comment by RamaSchneider in ‘It’s all about trolling’: how far-right influencers are shaping Republican narrative | Republicans by RamaSchneider

> Meanwhile right here in Vermont we have the local version that tries to make the talkers sound reasonable, cool and collected

you're having a hard time rationalizing that not all conservatives are ass holes / unintelligent.

Hell I am willing to go on the record and have a discussion with you.

One thing I have never, ever claimed: all conservatives are assholes. I have also NEVER argued that all Republicans are vile, violent, racist, authoritarians.

Never - ever - you cannot find me ever saying anything close to that.

LOL Only had to go back one comment.

"The fact is that the VTGOP is just biding time until they can force their vile, violent, racist and bigoted, uber authoritarian world view on all us right here in sweet little Vermont."

There are organizations and there are individuals. Pick which one you want to be for yourself, and then we'll discuss.

Fact is that the Republican Party acts as it does and that's what I represent in my posts. It doesn't mean every Republican is as their Republican Party does, but under the best of circumstances it's defined as enabling.

Group dynamics are what they are, and every one of us makes some compromise to belong to a group. Stop making the compromises the GOP/VTGOP is telling you to make.

See ... I don't know you. I don't even know if you're from Vermont or bumfuck, Egypt. I would have no way to know if you as an individual is a racist or violent or whatever, and my assumptions with people always start with the positive meaning I would have to know you to call you out on something.

But I DO know the Republican Party. Extremely well.

VTGOP is not telling me to do anything Rama. I vote based on whats good for my family and community. That was though a lot of words to avoid accepting responsibility for your own comments though. Maybe you do have a future in politics:)

No, the GOP is not telling you to do anything, but that isn't what I'm saying. Of course you can read what I write or what you want me to be writing - that's your choice.
