I might get tossed from the Gulch, but I've got two questions
I know I’m potentially setting myself up to get blown out of the Gulch, but I’ve got two questions I have to get off my chest. If this post costs me my Gulch membership, so be it. These questions are not—I repeat, NOT—directed at any one person. But I am putting them out because I want to hear what others think. I simply have no answer to either of them.
And with these two questions, I grab both third rails: Abortion, and the T part of the letter group.
My first question: If you are a practitioner of any modern Christian religion, it’s likely that your faith believes that life begins at conception. In this position, how in the Hell can you vote for a Democrat? Yes, this is a huge generality, and I know there are exceptions, but as a group, Democrats pretty much support abortion, in some cases damn near up until the time of birth. How can you possibly vote for a candidate who will do his/her best to enact laws not only allowing abortion, but actually encouraging it, and thereby violating one of the basics of your faith?
My second question: If you’re female, how in the hell can you vote for candidates who want to, quite literally, take away the things you’ve worked so hard to obtain? Again, yes, it’s a generality, but as a whole, Democrats are doing everything they can to erase all of the benefits you’ve rightfully finally obtained with Title IX by allowing biological males to compete against—and more often than not, defeat—biological females. How many scholarships, Olympic opportunities, etc., and the resulting downstream opportunities, have been lost because of this Democrat-driven trans-mania we are being forced to endure? How can you vote for someone who, for all practical purposes, won’t even acknowledge your existence?
I’m sorry, but I honestly do not understand how a Christian person or a woman could possibly vote Democrat, since so damn many of their policies run counter to your beliefs, your tenets, even your biology.
Fire away, Gulchers.

no sane person votes democrat
those that due are deluding themselves
the GOP is not much better, but right now we are stuck with 2 parties.
But, to your questions, yea, I wonder what the excuse is for either also.
However, I don't think you'll find too many demoncraps here in an Ayn Rand Community.
If I were you, I'd post these questions on fascist book and X, or all the other Social Media sites.
I observe, I think, I feel, I reason. I try to condense to objective maxims, based upon what I learned from The Objectivist's Ethics.
Beautifully said.
Pregnancy: The state of a female who has within her ovary or womb a fecundated germ, which gradually becomes developed in the latter receptacle. (Black's law)
Fecundated: As to human beings, the fecundation of the female ovum by the male spermatozoon resulting in human life capable of survival and maturation under normal conditions (Black's law)
1. Abortion is not a normal condition. 2. Rape is not a normal condition of conception. 3. A mother's mortality in jeopardy during pregnancy is not a normal condition. 4. A sever malformation of the fetus is not a normal condition. 5. Miscarriage is not a normal condition.
1. Hedonism is a normal condition of conception (extraordinarily popular). 2. Ignorance is a normal condition of conception (rare).
All one need do is find the lawful argument in Federal or State law regarding preservation of Life. I'm not making the argument one way or other. If someone can add objective normalcy or non, let's begin the consensus process.
Remember this: The folks calling out "My body my choice" are the ones demanding others participate in unwanted medical practices on far too regular basis. They also use Life and mortality by which their "standard" is upheld.
