Nobody? List too long?
All of the words I included are tossed about every single day on this board, yet I don't think they mean the same things to all of the people on this board. They certainly don't mean the same things to people throughout the political spectrum.
I'll start.
Democracy - A system where 2 foxes and 1 lamb vote to decide what to have for dinner.
Disagree? Tell me why.

1. Democracy- a form of government in which each and every citizen has a chance to vote for his representatives, where freedom of speech is guaranteed. In Oder for this to happen a free press is needed and it should not be a form of propaganda.
2. A contitutional republic does not have a king and has a written set of general rules to shape government. It can be amended by the people.
3 An intense dislike and willingness to hurt your enemies HATE
4 Person who has certain beliefs regarding a creator and those beliefs shape his actions. RELIGIOUS
5. Fear and anger towards trans people assuming they are sub human, inmoral TRANSFOBIA
6 Elections that give a fair opportunity to all elegible to vote. For example many countries have their elections on weekends to make it easier for more people to vote. That there are enough voting sites in all neighborhoods, that people are not harassed when they vote FAIR ELECTIONS
7 when people do not believe election results despite there being no reason to suppose so. ELECTION DENIAL
8. People rising up against something/ someone in a violent manner INSURRECTION
9 People who want a homogeneous nation where everyone is Christian, laws should reflect the religion Forget separation
of church and state. CHRISTIAN MATIONALIS
10 WOKE means many different things to different people. Often used as an insult.
11. FASCISM an authoritarian form of government that often vilifies certain groups, that praises ones country and considers it greater than all others. That often engages in repression of those who don’t follow the norm. ( sound like anyone we know? PS I have lived in a fascist country. The press is run by the state and opposition is viewed as treason
12 Nazi. The form of fa#cism practiced in Germany. Their scapegoats were the Jews, the gypsies, LGTB and others
13 COMMUNISM. Very similar to fascism but the state runs and controls everything, No free enterprise, private property etc
14 SOCIALISM Tries to create a more equal society, may or may not always succeed. Maternity leave, family leave, unemployment benefits. Social security ,free healthcare are all part of socialism. People are are taxed in accordance to their wealth
15 Bigotry. A sense of superiority and hatred of certain groups.
16 RACIST thinking that a certain race is superior either morally, or in intelligence or skill
Fair share- One group should not bear all the burden.
17 corporate greed- corporations accumulate as much wealth as they can but are reluctant to give benefits to their workers and raise consumer prices even when their profits are sky high
18 MEDIA BIAS. Not all facts are presented, only the convenient ones
19 Resonable Gun laws. Age requirements background checks without loopholes
20 LIAR - knowingly saying things that are not so
21 ETHICAL- trying to do no harm to others, just
22 MORAL Similar to ethical but with religious undertones
23 MORAL SUPERIORITY thinks they are more moral than others
24 HOMOPHOBIA fear and hatred of homosexuals often due to moral superiority
25 DRAGSHOW entertainment where mem wear women’s clothes and may be a bit risqué
25 ILLEAGAL INMIGRATION Entering the country in a manner contrary to the laws. Those who enter passing border control are not illegal until their visa expires or until their asylum request is denied.
25 DISREGARDING REALITY. The definition is already stated.

A democracy is a system of government where very religious families with strong convictions and who encourage their clan to marry young to produce as many offspring as their bodies will allow each get to vote, when of age, exactly who will represent them and what laws will be created that will apply equally to all the other people who don't share the same interests but are within the same application of that particular government. |

It doesn't sound like Trump in the least to me. I speak for myself and for the hundreds of people I've heard, watched, read, communicated with and spoken to about this exact thing. Everyone encompasses a group that's a wee bit broader than that. There are a myriad of reasons indeed. Simple racism and misogyny is something I encounter extremely rarely from people who like Trump. The reality is that nearly all of the time this happens it comes from people who hate Trump, and the reason I know they hate Trump is because they make sure that EVERYONE knows that they hate Trump. |

Using my moral superiority I am going to say that you and Dump probably have very similar values. Let's start from the end of that and work forward. I don't call people names, something your moral superiority doesn't seem to have a problem with. Maybe you should go back to my list and actually define what you mean by moral superiority. Hitler also was responsible for the extermination of 6 million Jews, plus I don't know how many Roma, Sinti, black, and Slavic people. In addition, anyone with mental or physical deformities were included, as were any who were homosexual. That's not the entire list of those he slaughtered, either. Exactly who did Trump have exterminated? Who has had a gun put to their head? Those are bold accusations. Back them up. |

I thought you would be pleased to be considered on the same level as Dumpty Dump since you so admire him. No he hasn’t exterminated anyone yet but he has said he will. You can easily find those comments flying out of his mouth on the internet. Hasta la Vista, Baby!

Hate = strong irrational dislike.
That's not always true.
In my 83 years I can say I hated two different people for good reasons.
So I guess I should remove irrational..

It’s very sad to me that a majority people voted for him (or did they? We will never know because no one is screaming voter fraud and demanding recounts). We are currently the laughing stock of the free world. |

I think HATRED is thrown around too easily. Just because I don’t agree, doesn’t mean that I harbor hatred to those i disagree with I mean, are you disagreeing with them on some point of policy or are you disagreeing with them getting to live freely as themselves in public, getting to benefit from equal protection under the law, and to generally enjoy the privileges of adult citizenship in the US? Are you trying to have people like them erased from children’s books and public libraries? The first is disagreement. The latter ones are hate often disguised as “disagreement.” |
