No

I was more suggesting that the if you're not with me your against me mentality wasn't encouraged and so prevalent people would be capable of working together and finding a middle ground

Sinemanchin and everyone to their right has not acted in good faith, the "middle ground" has been yanked 50% to the right about 3 times already on this legislation.

If literally nobody on the opposite side of the aisle, and freaking moderates in your own freaking party won't support it.

Are you sure it's the other side of the aisle not acting in good faith?

100% positive.

[dcm1602]

100% positive.

And that attitude is why nothing is getting done

On a side note I don't think the Republicans are right either.

It's freaking jerkoffs at war with each other.

I suppose it could be worse, it could have been a stock photo of a black guy above a "tough on crime" section.

Arguing the "other side" (which now includes Democrats) isn't acting in good faith while supporting women being harangued in the bathroom.

Yes, there are bad democrats. No, I don't care if people are rude to them. They're not victims.

Someone wants to walk in on me taking a dump, that's their fatal mistake.

They're "bad" because they don't agree with your policy positions and therefore are the enemy and must be punished!

That's not absolutist or authoritarian in any way.

Waaah believing things should be one way and not another way is faaaascist

You want things to be one way.

But it's the other way.

No, in all seriousness that doesn't make anyone a fascist.

But thinking that certain conduct is acceptable to effectuate your sociopolitical goals can absolutely make one an authoritarian depending on the conduct.
