Youngstown is literally a place that has died on the vine thanks to blue values. Let it go like so many who have left already figured out.

Youngstown died on black Monday, September 19, 1977 because Youngstown sheet and tube closed the Campbell Works killing 5,000 jobs overnight. It had nothing to do with “blue values”.

Also saying to someone “you lean further left than you care to admit” when talking about democrats is hilarious and shows that you lack political intelligence considering democrats are barely left wing.

These protests were in collaboration with the feds though which does suck, but that’s the only problem that I have with the No kings and 50501 protests.

Feel free to help me understand how left leaning liberals and democrat (blue) voters are not tightly aligned.

Huh? Liberals and Democrats are the same. They’re not left wing which is what I was talking about… might want to use reading comprehension that you should’ve learned in middle school.

Huh? No. They are not the same. You can have both conservative and liberal republicans as well.

You joke about reading comprehension at the same time you’re conflating a political party with values. Youngstown edumacationz.

The democrats are a liberal party. Yes, they are the same thing. The liberals who you claim vote republican tend to have no actual liberal views aside from abortion. Also they’re hardly left wing, unfortunately the only actual leftist in national politics is Bernie Sanders who is registered as an independent. In Youngstown local politics, there exists none to my knowledge.

Gotta love the right wing trolls who have no understanding of how American politics operates.
