The trick is to recognize, no one person has all the answers. The trick is not to dehumanize your political opponents. The trick is to govern without losing your humanity. The trick is to accept the truth even when you don't benefit. Some wonder why Trump is hated by so many. And yet, it's clear as day.

Big Bob: You did not answer the question. I requested your understanding of what is the benchmark for "far right conservative thinking?"

You wrote of these people and their "hate," so I requested you to provide a standard of who they are, not an opinion of how we should all just get along.

You see in my lexicon "hate" attributed to individuals is a big word, a bad idea, so I am naturally curious as to who are these purveyors of "hate," and asked for that benchmark, which means who the leader(s) are.

Yes, you are, Bobbie.

Yeah, I'm sure FOX tells you this every night. I'm a lefty. I don't hate anyone. I have no trouble disagreeing with you but I don't hate you. Maybe FOX gins this so you can play the victim? It's possible.

Biden has declared war on our quality of life, and is using the eco-fascist climate cult to attack middle class America.

If you want to see hate, violence, and destruction in Amrican politics in the past few years, it has come from the LEFT and not the right. The left likes to use the term "hate" to throw at their adversaries, but the ones who actually spew hate are the far left, or what Margaret Thatcher used to call the "loony left". ANTIFA and BLM are two loony left, and indeed Marxist, organizations that are some of the prime organizations of the far left that spew hate, violence, and destruction. The "green" environmental extremist movement is increasingly doing that, too. But the corporate media (the self-styled MSM) never seems to use the term "far left" while they often throw around the term "far right".

These days, the loony left, of which Baghdad Bob below is a part, will generally call anyone to the right of Mitch McConnell "far right" and heck they might even include RINO McConnell. Many of them would also include old style liberal RObert F. Kennedy, as well, because he does not toe their narrative.

Time will tell. Some parts of the country are more conservative than others. What might fly in LA, might not make the cut in Belhaven. The good thing about the modern age, we have the receipts.

Some. Never a good idea to cater to the lowest common denominator.

The UK's National Health Service, not exactly a bastion of conservatism, recently recommended their doctors NOT use or even recommend new pronouns or new names for gender confused children. Using those pronouns slows the recovery that most children experience as they naturally grow out of gender confusion. It that context, it is a big enough doncern that the NHS put it out in a recommendation to their doctors. Beaufort County seems to be contracting in the exact opposite direction.
