Anyone notice how many news stories nowadays start with "Republicans block or halt or shut down or remove something.... They aren't doing anything... Just keeping anyone else from doing anything
People are probably getting sick of me saying this by now, but of course Republicans aren't doing anything, this is their philosophy. Their core beliefs are in conserving traditional hierarchies and norms. God over man, men over women and children, white over black, rich over poor, cis-het over LGBT people and other hierarchies.
Their actions are best understood through the lens of conservative philosophy and the maintenance or restoration of socio-economic hierarchies.
To achieve their goals, they really only need to do a few things legialativly,
You see 1 all the time, they dont even need to be in power to do it. They just need to get in the way. If they get power, you see 2, and since they're trying to rollback generational change, not even decades old precedent is safe (see Roe vs. Wade).
And then Jesus said: "White power sieg heil! " - The Bible according to you
He's just explaining conservative ideology
