Makes sense to me. I consider myself independent because both parties piss me off, and I think the duopoly and polarization is ridiculous. Democrats say Republicans are stupid, Republicans say Democrats are stupid. I say they’re both idiots. 😆
I think that taking a hard-line “policy” on something is inherently stupid. Everything has nuance, and having very strong, rigid opinions about the hot-button issues of the day doesn’t make you smarter or better than those that are more apathetic.
I’m generally pro-choice, but I fully understand why many people have issues with abortions and I don’t really blame them for wanting to outlaw the practice. I’m in favor of SOME increased gun control, but I also think that people are wayyyy too obsessed with guns in general. There are other things that kill a lot more people than guns but nobody’s freaking out about those. So honestly I think there isn’t much to be gained here by trying to make guns harder to buy, or taking people’s guns away, or whatever.
My advice would be to stop fucking fighting about shit that doesn’t actually matter, like religion and guns. Focus on things that are actually more likely to end our civilization, like accelerating climate change.

So what do you think should happen?
Lol seems like you’re here to pick fights. What do I think should happen to what?
I think the question is what policy do you want?
Yes, what are your policies.
Hey, you’re the one calling people idiots.

So basically, you’re on the sidelines criticising but have nothing helpful to offer instead.
