(3,125 posts)The tax policy that benefits the rich at the expense of the poor. The Iraq war. The non-stop attempts to gut anything the government does to promote safety, health, education, or the survival of poor people.
They are a bunch of fucking assholes.
I also think my demographics play into my choice. I'm an atheist so they don't win me back with their phony appeals to religion. I'm well educated enough to see how their rhetoric works, and how it doesn't match anything they actually do. I'm too young to have been dazzled by Reagan, which seems to have happened with some boomers and mid-generational Xers. I'm also working within public sector research, and I've made a career in that more in spite of their impact on society than because of it.
Basically, they've never offered me anything I wanted, and they've gone out of their way to shit on most of the things I care about.
