For Senate, who is the other one who didn't vote? I know that McCain can't participate in the voting process because he's currently undergoing treatment for cancer.
Who are also the 3 in House?
Also, I know there are going to be a lot of people in this forum against this because something about a liberal conspiracy made by the McDonald's fast food chains or something. But, this is agreed on by both parties, so why is it a bad thing?
Or, is anything supported by a Democrat considered bad on this forum?

Huh, that's interesting. What are their reasons for opposing it? [quote] [quote]Or, is anything supported by a Democrat considered bad on this forum?[/quote]Yep.[/quote] For this part, why are people in this forum so against anything a Democrat (and by extension, moderates) are for? If Democrats as a whole party said that they supported breathing air to survive, or eating food to survive, are these people on this forum just going to stop breathing and stop eating, just to prove their point that they're against anything related to Democrat support? I mean, that's just stupid thinking if people on this forum are literally against everything that doesn't align with their political stances. That's also a huge sign of immaturity and they should probably open their minds more before graduating high school, unless they really want life to kick their ass harder than other people have to experience.

You see a lot of conservative authoritarians here in all likelihood because a lot of the vocal inhabitants of this community are depressed, angsty white teenagers from primarily white, more rural areas that have little interaction with other cultures. They see the news telling them about all these minorities rioting in BLM and see Muslim terrorists attacking constantly and hear liberals complaining about white privilege. Meanwhile, their own families are suddenly being forced to pay for health insurance they never used before and they’re seeing more and more industries they were a part of closing down due to automation. In their minds they’re being forced to be politically correct while rioting/violent minorities insult them with impunity and are given free everything in big cities. Trump is the big stand up macho locker room talk spewing hero that makes the “libtards” cry, will give their families their jobs back, and will save them from having to pay for expensive health insurance they “don’t need.”

I grew up in a rural area, and spent a good time of my life in the city, since I spent the first 7 years of my life living in cities like Oakland and San Francisco before moving to this area in the Central Valley. In my entire life, the only time I have seen someone complaining about something in the city is literally just stuff related to the city, like traffic, homelessness, and some gang violence depending on the area. Even in this rural part of California, there's gang violence from Nortenos vs Surrenos, the Aryan Brotherhood, and MOD. We also have a problem with homelessness too. There's also a huge difference between being politically correct and being a tool to people who aren't the same as them. I've noticed there are a good number of these teenage conservative authoritarian whatevers in this forum who are trying to justify themselves being jerkbags to people who support LGBT rights and PoC, or generally being tools to people who aren't white.

Hell, not even most people do. I’m just giving you my two cents as to why people [i]here[/i] lean so hard to the right. I’d also like to point out that political conversations tend not to come up unless the person is [i]heavily[/i] opinionated and I’ll also reiterate it’s certainly not all folks who fit the description I laid out who act like the people on this board.

I'm sure that the conservatives on this forum are smart enough to agree with Max if he said that he likes breathing clean air and eating food. If they were so adamant about going against what Max says, then it wouldn't be any skin off of my bones if they did the opposite of what he says. If politics are that polarizing on this forum, it's definitely a sign of the times.
