    I feel like the real problem is extremism. When people won't even listen to differing views, nothing ever moves forward unless one side has power and the other does not. The result of that is any progress made only serves half of the citizenry. Rinse, repeat..

    I was watching a D&D video about alignment and thought about applying it to our politics. The way I see it, in alignment Conservatives would be considered Lawful and Liberals would be considered Chaotic. Then within each group, those that are Altruistic would be considered Good and those that are Self-Centered or Selfish would be considered Evil. Those that consider themselves in the Center or Moderate would be considered Neutral.

    What Liberals fail to understand, is that when their errand boys with hammers finish pounding on all the Conservative nails, the errand boys will still want to continue hammering. Its how they have fun, and everyone other than Liberals know, the nails they are going to hammer next.

    Liberals claim that Conservatives are Racist, among other things. So who is the True Racist.

    Conservatives use the term People to encompass all people of all nationality and gender.
    Liberals use the term People to mean White People, if they want to indicate Non-Whites they use the term People of Color.
    Conservatives use one term to indicate everyone, Liberals use different terms to indicate people of different Races.
    To Conservatives, everyone is the same and they treat everyone the same. To Liberals, everyone is different and they treat everyone differently.

    A Conservative will push the limits of a Law, but tend not to break the Law. A Conservative will take every advantage possible while still stay within the limits of a Law.

    A Liberal tend to follow a Law as long as it is convenient for them to do so. A Liberal tend to believe that a Law does not apply to them, they feel their Righteousness, extends beyond the limits of a Law.

    Very interesting point of view. I’m starting to see similarities in both parties tbh.

    I have to say that I have lived all over the world..been to a ton of countries..seldom do generalizations approach the boundaries of truth. Conservatives are this was..libs are that way…things are far more complex.

    That's why I use the word "Tends". Of course there are exceptions, but if the majority or a significant number acts in a certain way, you can attribute tendency to the group. How many cases have you seen where a Liberal will paint an entire group some way, on the actions of a single person.
