"I was mad the people I tend to agree with how to fix my country were not doing enough, so I just became part of the problem."

Like anyone on the right actually cares about fixing problems. It's all about how they can benefit from a situation, how they can spin things to their advantage.

They know deep down they are supporting the trainwreck, they just want a media ecosystem that blames others so they don't feel personally responsible for it.

You've got it wrong here, they care about fixing 'problems'

When you make up problems so the solution can be physical violence, ANY 'problem' is 'solvable' if you stir up enough 'vigilantes' to solve it!

I honestly would probably vote Republican if they put up a candidate that had solutions to economic problems they swear is caused by the left.

But they don’t have any, because all their candidates bluster about the economy while they run on platforms centered around identity politics, religious law, and reducing women’s bodily autonomy.

Every day I have to hear conservatives complain about how “Biden ruined the economy” but they don’t seem to care all that much about fixing it. They just want to ban abortion, suppress the gays , and put Christ back in Christmas.

It honestly feels like the left doesn’t know how to fix the economy and the right just doesn’t want to.
