Policies of Perfidy
The wealthy are protected by GOP policies; for the rest of us, Conservatism is a plague.
Republicans are against voting rights, civil rights, worker’s rights, marriage equality, fair wages, education funding, fair housing, clean air and water, and consumer financial protection. In fact, if it wasn’t for their racism, fascism, greed, and treason, Conservatives wouldn’t have any values at all.
GOP vs. Your Social Security
By attempting to destroy or sabotage Social Security, Republicans will hurt your grandparents today, your parents tomorrow, and you upon your retirement.
GOP vs. Your Health
Republicans withheld Medicaid expansion and refused to set-up health insurance exchanges under the Affordable Care Act. Their cruelty dealt a double blow to many communities where small hospitals and clinics were forced to close because their existence depended on Medicaid payments. The GOP healthcare plan is: Just say no. Oh wait, that was a different cretinous Conservative policy. The GOP healthcare plan is: Don’t get sick.
GOP vs. Our Veterans
It took a nationwide scandal to shame Republicans into voting for appropriations to the Veteran's Administration healthcare program. After a short time, Conservatives went back to withholding funds to treat our returning wounded.
GOP vs. Your Food
From the moment you wake up, you are at the mercy of morons who want you to breathe polluted air, drink befouled water, and consume tainted food. In their constant battles against regulation of air, water, agriculture, meat, and dairy products, Conservatives show no concern for human life. Profit is their god and greed is their creed.
GOP vs. Your Medication
By resisting sane regulatory policies, Conservatives are misguided at best and evil at worst. They think your medications should become a form of Russian roulette. “Is this pill tainted?” you may wonder. Don’t worry, the GOP says, “The marketplace will decide the value of all products.” What about medication for heart disease? Cholesterol? Thyroid? Prostate? Asthma? Heartburn? Diabetes?
GOP vs. Common Sense on Guns
Conservatives block background checks on gun purchases. Normal people favor such laws, but Republican politicians in the grip of the gun manufacturing cartel (read: NRA) oppose common-sense legislation. Carnage continues because of this; perhaps your child will be the next victim.
GOP vs. Our Atmosphere
Fossil fuel companies deny the harmful effects of climate change and give generous bribes (sorry, I meant campaign contributions) to the GOP. Which is why the GOP denies climate change. So, we are inexorably destroying the atmosphere that supports human life.
GOP vs. Facts
“Think tanks” such as Cato Institute, Heritage Foundation, Manhattan Institute, American Enterprise Institute, FreedomWorks, Focus on the Family, etc. etc. etc. churn out bogus reports, falsified studies, skewed research, and prevaricating papers. Using this filth, GOP political figures issue misleading statements, wacko theories, wild distortions, and just plain made-up crap. Then, the whores in the conservative media machine spew these lies via social media and public communication channels.
GOP vs. USA
With today’s Republican Party, we’re witnessing the breakdown of everything valuable that should come to citizens in a civilized society. It’s up to everyone to resist GOP fascism in ways large and small. When you do not resist the pestilence of conservatism, you serve to support it.
