I wasn't suggesting that the ideologies are identical, just that they share those elementsThe way you worded your comment obviously made that implication - between Republicans and the Khmer Rouge, when in fact the Khmer Rouge was a leftist, communist, Marxist government, whose leaders were steeped in academic Marxist "intellectualism" (they studied in Paris, no less).
Deciphering whether you intended it or not is not my motive, so I'll leave that to the readers.
And no, the hatred does not go both ways,but you might think so
I disagree, but I have no horse in this race - my personal politics are boring centrist liberalism.
so because another big part of modern Republican ideology is victimization
Is it opposite day or something?
