That hill was lost a long time ago, bud. Give it up.
Nope. Post #23. I’m not playing those games. I will not accept being willfully mislabeled by my opponents.
Well, go 'head on with your bad self. Wear your blue proudly.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Prior to 2000 election, blue was typically Republican, and red was typically Democrat, on the election maps.
The commiedia pushing Gore wised up, switched it en masse, and have, as usual, defined the terms and controlled the debate ever since.
Red: danger, warning, anger, hatred: Stop! A natural fit for the left, so they project it onto conservatives.
Blue: calm, reasonable, loyal, steady: Safe. A natural fit for the law-and-order, reliable, tax-paying right, so usurp it for communists.
Yes. It was rolled out on Election Day 2000. The GOP being the weak, gutless wonders we’ve come to love refused to call bull$hit on that absurd, false and obscene relabeling as the color of historical and international Communism/Socialism. I’ve called it out since day #1 and I refuse to use it. It’s as offensive as can be.
