      I remember people being happy that everyone got “Obamacare” and everyone includes republicans.

      I haven’t seen any suggested policies that said “everyone but republicans should get …”. But there were a few about e.g. giving children “free” lunch in school to ensure children have at least 1 meal per day. No one wanted to check if the parent of the child is a republican or if the child was. In fact, when the program was running for a little while, every child got their “free” meal.

      Yes, people celebrated that republican got healthcare because that is what everyone means. Republicans are part of everyone.

        …Celebrating everyone getting it, is not the same as celebrating Republicans getting it.

          What kind of weird mental gymnastics is that?

          Do you think people don’t know that republicans are included in “everyone”?

          So, just to be clear, if you would celebrate your child amazing school report, you aren’t celebrating their A in math? Because you are celebrating the school report and not the math grade?

            What kind of mental spelunking is that?

            Because there is a difference between a blanket celebration that includes everyone, and specifically celebrating one group.

              Ofc, there is a difference. But that difference is not in where you think it is.

              If you celebrate it for everyone, you celebrate that for every individual. You don’t create a group in your head. If you would celebrate it for republicans, you would create a group in your head and it would be less about the individual. But importantly, republicans are individuals and the celebration for everyone includes those individuals. The coverage for republicans would be as much celebrated as the coverage for potato farmers. But I don’t think anyone would be insisting that democrats didn’t celebrate that potato farmers get aca, outside of silly linguistical reasons.

        The point is this situation would not have happened. It was made out to stoke their ego. It’s cope.

        And good, angry gets shit done.

          Lol you think being intentionally shitty to people who mostly align with you politically is a public service. Now I’ve heard it all.

              I’m totally SHOCKED you would say that. And that you don’t know a single fucking thing about my views. Shocked! Now, back to your one man circle jerk paying tribute to how moral you are

                I went through your post history, it was telling enough.

                Also it’s really ironic that you called me antagonistic after looking at that.

                  Also it’s pretty dense you thought I was talking about me. I’m saying you came in this thread to shit on people who hypothetically disagree with you 10% and then you said it was helpful lol

      I’d rather not have to celebrate basic human items like healthcare than someone celebrating killing anyone not like them (trans, gay, had abortion, not white male).

      in other words, FUCK OFF.
