I used to believe that GOP = rich, so they had more money to campaign during elections. By the 1980s I realized that Dems were spending more each election when campaign war-chests were revealed more often in the press.

That George W Bush was a patriotic American. He is just a uniparty globalist scum POS like Obama with a little less Marxism than Obama.

I used to believe we were a real country. It's become obvious we are nothing more than a global bank and surveillance state. Our unknown overlords have an agenda that has zero to do with improving American lives.

The biggest is the lie that globalization is free trade.

The Morals and Standrds of the GOP were better than the Liberals.
Now I have come to the conclusion they are both each as horrible, just in different ways. They will both frick you over, but just with a different pickle.

How the FBI was apolitical and impossible to become political.. Now it is just a wing of the Democrat Party and used mainly for political reasons.

That Black Sabbath's song "War Pigs" is damn close to how things actually work. Since the start of Viet Nam we have been a country engaged holistically in war for profit and have become the nation that Eisenhower warned us about in his farewell speech.

I used to thing Republicans were more judicious about these things, but was dead wrong. There is one party that rules Washington, the elites. The average citizen is just one of their pawns.

• I use to believe a national US election could not be stolen.
• I use to believe no one could weaponize the DOJ.
• I use to believe freedom of the press was something the press would stand for en masse.
• I use to believe US society was now post-racist, and that it would never be antisemitic.
• I use to believe the US honored international agreements.
• I use to believe one was presumed innocent until proven guilty in our country.

Differentiating between the ideas of what America was built on and what our federal government is actually doing.

That there are a few decent, patriotic, honest, moral Democrats left. Turns out Dims are ALL pieces of slimy filth or complete imbeciles….

Also, there are many Republicans that are the same… at least ones in office.

When I was 18 and voted in my first election, Bush Vrs. Gore, I thought there was an actual difference in Republicans and Democrats. After taking the time and doing research I realized we have a Uniparty in DC with a minority of elected officials that are outside of this uniparty. As long as this persists there will be no effective change in DC and we are going to stay on course for being the next socialistic shite hole country.
