minus-squareEldritch@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down12·7 months agoYes we are well aware. Up Is Down black is white love is hate war is peace freedom is slavery. No, definitions don’t generally change. Especially not to mean the opposite of how they we’re initially defined. You’re confusing a party for an ideology. There is no “Republican” ideology. Especially since Trump took over. Ideologically, since at least the 1930s Republicans were pretty solidly fascist. At least in private. They’re just more open about it today. But hey, we can still compare our non aggression principles. This is mine. It’s a French classic!
