I'm genuinely curious how ResetEra still exists. At this point they must have banned a measurable percentage of the global population.

Now it's a bit reversed. The importance of those things above have decreased, and Democrats are in many ways the cultural and corporate establishment that people want to rebel against. Democrats were the ones responsive for COVID lockdowns, vaccine mandates, and for better or worse being 'woke' and/or pushing identity politics. Trump is the chaos agent who wants to shake things up, which is attractive to young men who feel disaffected from the system.

This guy is gonna be on the chopping block next. That's a little too close to the mark for ReeeesetEra.

Some men just don't want women to have rights, you can't meet them halfway

Hilarious, but they are fulfilling their own prophecy through their actions. If you would have asked me 10 years ago if women should have the same rights as men, I would have absolutely said yes. Women have ironically taught me themselves that they shouldn't.

That thread is useful and illuminating though, especially if you're still one of those "can't we all just get along"/"leftists are just uniformed" types. Maybe 60 years ago the divide between Democrat and Republican was that they both wanted a successful America, they just had different ideas on how to get there (I'm unconvinced the leftist leaders even back then actually wanted that though). But the divide between right and left is absolutely different and in stark contrast now. We fundamentally want different things. It's not simply a matter of education or getting them out of their echo chambers or exposing them to different views. Maybe for a lot of default-left normies that is the case, but there is a subpopulation of the left, and I would argue it's at least 10 million strong if not considerably more, that can never be brought to our side. Their entire idea of self is built around a worldview and morality that is antithetical to every single thing we believe and want. Like fish vs. land animals, immerse one in the other's environment too long and it will just kill them. You can't "educate" a cat to be able to breath underwater. The ocean isn't just an echo chamber to a fish, it's their whole world and they need it to survive. "Expose them to an alternative idea" like throwing them on land, and they're not going to just learn to not be fish anymore.

There is a big portion of our national population that can never be convinced to ever be anything other than what they are. And what they are happens to be the most toxic poison, ionizing radiation, corrosive acid to the world we want to live in. We can't coexist with them, agree to disagree, "just get along", or exist in the same space with them. As long as we exist, they will try to destroy us and our world. It's in their nature to do so and it cannot be changed.

The real war between right and left now is akin to an alien species invading our planet and trying to convert the atmosphere into something like a helium/argon atmosphere because that's what they need to survive. It's gonna have to come down to one surviving and other being destroyed utterly.
