Sometimes I admire people on the Left. Stop laughing, I'm being serious. To be so easily manipulated and controlled by people, to never have to think for myself or make any decisions of my own? To rely on lazy talking points to do my talking for me.
It would certainly be much easier than being on the Right, where we ALL think for ourselves, challenge ideas, and refuse to go along to get along.
Independent thinkers are a real pain in the butt.
Trust me, I am one ... I know.
That being said, at some point, we on the Right have to agree to disagree and really look at what we're up against, which is the insane, progressive, Marxist Left. These people aren't even Democrats; they're literally socialists. And again, I get it, we don't like to be told what to think or how to behave, but when we're hurting our own efforts, and damaging our own 'side' more than the people who want to punish us with jail for voting for Trump, it's time to stop and think about what it is we're really doing here.
Case in point, the Daily Caller posted some ridiculous meme featuring Old MAGA versus New MAGA and said the GOP is in the midst of a civil war.
In case you missed it:

Honestly, when I saw this first thing this morning, I thought for sure it was some Leftist org trying to work the Right up, but nope. I was shocked, as I have long been a fan of the Daily Caller.
Sure, Tucker Carlson founded the group, but even they have to know handing something like this to the Left will only give them a lifeline for the midterms. Not to mention, there is one clear-cut difference between new and old MAGA.
I saw this and assumed a groyper made it https://t.co/wHpzhFNtlb

Yup.
Israel.
I evaluate each person's argument on a case-by-case basis. I base my opinions on reasoning, the facts presented, and moral consistency. I know, I'm a "rebel" that way

This is a dumb post

It's getting clicks and taps, and as the managing editor here at Twitchy, I get the importance of that, especially as X continues to change the platform in how it determines what does and does not get traction.
That being said, I think this image is really awful, and the ideas it fuels are even worse.
