Years ago I attended a baby shower, and everybody there was a snooty liberal. I was a Democrat back then. There were the typical chats you have at a party, but one discussion was about abortion rights. Of course everybody there supported that, but I thought it was pretty surreal for a baby shower to be talking about murdering them. I supported abortion rights then but considered myself pro-life, and then after that shower I realized there’s no way you can be for both sides! You can’t, and that’s when I started my long separation from the RAT Party!

That party was a perfect illustration of Orwellian “doublethink “. Holding two contradictory thoughts.

That’s interesting
My wife purports to be a liberal Democrat but I’ve already proven to her that she’s pro life ,low taxes and against forced vaccinations .

and so I think she has a lot to think about- but obviously cannot break from the Stasi or she’ll be isolated From the group think

It’s rather funny actually
