We need more viable parties. We have outgrown 2-party.You have to go a little deeper. The 2 party system will always split at around 50 / 50. The changing demographics is what causes the 50/50 dividing line to always move left.
How many times have you seen in the PF alone - the dem party of 30 years ago is no more, I use to be a dem but the party left me, the party has moved to far left, Kennedy would be a repub if he were alive today. things of that nature.
The repubs will move as far left as necessary to attract 50% and remain viable .....but no further.
The dems will move as far left as they can, but only to the point where they remain viable - appeal to 50%
Repubs want to be as conservative as possible but still win.
Dems want to be as liberal as possible but still win.
The shift of the midpoint is where your focus should be. And that shift is largely caused by changing demographics.
Were you posting here during the "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesvile, Virginia in August of 2017? The "Great Replacement" conspiracy theory was definitely discussed then, as a way to better understand where the "Jews Will Not Replace Us!" chant was emanating from.I’ve never heard this theory before LG posted his link. Has it been discussed here?
He asked the question, “what do we do with these people?” If you want to counter, mock, and jeer then have at it. That’s your right just like it’s their right to think stupid thoughts. Maybe LG didn’t mean it this way but it sure came across as looking to stamp out this way of thinking. That I don’t agree with doing, no matter how dumb. But of course we get to make fun of stupidity, that’s the price of having stupid thoughts!Do you think he's advocating government thought police? What do you mean "let"? Like they shouldn't be countered and mocked and jeered? Why not? Why do they get freedom from consequence?

It’s been around for a long time

He made the point that “Replacement Theory” will be left intentionally vague by those who wish to use it as a cudgel.
I said that would be similar to CRT. Doesn’t matter if it’s really anti-racist training or whatever… it’s Something. And kids are coming home with worksheets.
But it all rolls up under this nebulous “CRT” label.
That’s all.
I truthfully said the same thing about ANTIFA and was repeatedly called a liar by multiple posters. You seem to be getting off a little easier with your ignorance.It could be. I just find it rather odd so many people are talking about it now as if it’s a huge problem, and I’ve never heard of it before. Even on a board that discusses politics, had a thriving Q thread, had a thriving pizza gate thread, and even a fairly lengthy thread full of 9/11 deniers.
The "Great Replacement" theory involves a lot more than just shifting demographics which might work to the advantage of Democrats :I've posted multiple links regarding the left talking about shifting demographics and how it ensures their future victories. It's even been mentioned specifically by left wing members of this board before.
That is not an accurate count, to say the least.How many people total in that "united right" were holding torches and chanting about Jews? 20 maybe if you count the fat ones twice? The idea that such things are wide spread sentiment is purely insane.

Why make such a ridiculously stupid comment?
I'll write it off as you are having a bad day.
The pictures... especially, the last two near the bottom.What in that article countered my claim about around 20 people?
I already did post a link which thoroughly defines it, and explains its history. That was the first link in that post you just replied to.And why don't you define replacement theory for me and then tell me how Tucker Carlson is promoting that specific theory as you define it.

What kind of impact did you expect the .25% increase from March to have on the consumer price index for April? Good lord. It sounds like your expectations may have been slightly unrealistic. LOL.
Following the May 4th meeting of the Fed, interest rates were raised by .5%. We'll see how this helps tamp down inflation. The Fed has outlined a plan to reduce liquidity in the financial markets by letting close to $100 billion in bonds roll off their balance sheet every month, reducing liquidity by about $1 trillion per year, per their estimates. Inflation is a real problem, that isn't going to instantly disappear.
