Uh... no you don't... this isn't pacman where you come out on the other side. Many conservatives actually agreed w/ AOC on a move to limit how much credit cards and predatory loans could charge in interest... It's something that helps and benefits most of society except the predatory lending companies, and it's something not as polarized. It's easy for cross-collaborating because there's no clause on abortion, guns, no religious intertwinings...
You're not gonna find many people right of libertarians calling for universal healthcare because they're magically progressive now...
You're also not going to find progressives out in the leftest of the left who are also members of the KKK or think there are 'good people on both sides'... there will always be some overlap on smaller issues that aren't ideological. Ending war seems like something both sides could get behind (only reason they haven't is because of the amount of $$$ in warfare -- it's insane).
I also think it's just posturing. 500k is a tiny tiny sum compared w/ what Soros and Koch spend in politics annually. They'd put up way more if they thought it was gonna go anywhere, or valuable enough to do so. Personally I don't trust either as they're both oligarch's just w/ slightly different ideologies of the perfect society (that they are trying to bring about by virtual of their extreme wealth).
- RickJWagner 7y agoThe KKK is pretty much dead today, isn't it? Democratic Senator Byrd was their last high profile leader, except for maybe David Duke and he's been marginalized for decades. Antifa seems like the group most likely to wear masks and attack people. (I see people are defending some person who spit on Eric Trump last weekend.) Antifa beat a journalist, and again they have defenders. So..... yes. If you go to where the hate is, left and right will be close together there. On the other side of the coin, I have many good friends on the left and the right. They are all good people. I'd imagine about half a circle away from those violent types of either political philosophy.
