Imagine how bad things really are if this is all the further they could skew the #s

Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

The most partisan conservatives humanize some Democrats, but “the most liberal Democrats expressed the greatest dehumanization of Republicans,” said the study, which is titled “Metadehumanization erodes democratic norms during the 2020 presidential election.”
Their radicals are worse than our radicals! A tale as old as time.

They’re not smart enough to converse with other people so they can only fight against straw men and scream their heads off, neither of which make people feel like human beings

The more they can tell themselves that we are all nazis/fascists and irreparably stupid/immoral/monstrous, the less they feel the need to listen to anything we say. There can be no conversation and therefore no unity. I imagine if you were to track down where all this dehumanization started, you'd also find the people who benefit the most by a divided nation.
I love it! We could not be more fucked up than we are now.
FIFY
I don't think she would know fascism if the meaning was tattooed to her forearm.
She might as well be a troll with an avatar. Wait, I may be on to something, haha SKOL!
