16 days agoNot an American, but have spent a lot of time there. They have two right wing liberal parties, and a political system that actively resists any changes to that setup. As a result, they think that those are the two political extremes, and everything between them is centrist. Anyone outside of that is an extremist and not worthy of consideration. So when you criticise their party of choice, you obviously must be on the “other” side of the political spectrum, which to them is the other US political party.
They just don’t know any better, it’s outside of their realm of experience.
Completely agree. I haven’t worked up the courage, but it’s something I absolutely would like to do as a part time job. It’s a service like any other, and it should be treated as such.
Edit: to the downvoters, why? My body your choice?
