Say what they will about the Democrats, but at least they defend their base. They do it to the extreme. Republicans hate their base and refuse to defend us on anything.

Nevermind their total big tech capitulation, the GOP will let large financial institutions shut down our personal accounts because of conservative activism.

Do you think the Democrats would ever let Chase Bank shut down one of their supporters accounts because they were "too far" left? Not in a million years. There would be days of hearings and huge fines instituted almost immediately.

People like the Kochs spent a bunt of money deliberately trying to conflate the two ideologies

Real libertarians are conservative, like Ron Paul and his son Sen. Rand.

Neocons aren't real libertarians, but they pretend they are
