1. 1. That couldn’t be farther from the truth. First, there is a difference between political parties and political ideologies. That said, there is no comparison between the tactics of the Democrats and the Republicans.
2. As for ideologies, all fall into 1 of 2 camps: 1) Individualism and self-government. 2) Collectivism and statism.
The former sees the individual as having God-given rights with the role of government being to protect those rights.

1. The left likes to attack the idea of nationalism as evil; they liken it to Nazism. The Left compares Trump's call to "make America great again" to Hitler's similar plea for Germany, but nationalism isn't intrinsically evil.
2. According to Merriam-Webster, nationalism is:
"loyalty and devotion to a nation
especially : a sense of national consciousness." Simply put, nationalism is loving your country and it's values, and putting it's interest before all other nations.

1. The details of other incidents with other men have no bearing on this case, just as the women signing a letter that they have heard or experienced similar incidences have no bearing on the validity of Ford's accusation.
2. You can't convict on statistics, only on evidence germain to that case. Weinstein isn't guilty because Cosby lied, nor visa versa; neither of their lies have anything to do with Kavanaugh. I can't believe I actually have to explain this to you.

@originaljipssy@nytimes 1. The principal tenet in Republicanism is that the ultimate power resides with the people. The Founders rejected classical democracy as evil because it allowed the majority to force it's will upon the minority.
2. They designed the govt with safegards like the EC in order to distill the will of the people in such a way that the interests of all, including the minorities, were represented. What the Founders created was ingenious.
