r/tuesday This lady's not for turning Nov 11 '24

Semi-Weekly Discussion Thread - November 11, 2024

INTRODUCTION

/r/tuesday is a political discussion sub for the right side of the political spectrum - from the center to the traditional/standard right (but not alt-right!) However, we're going for a big tent approach and welcome anyone with nuanced and non-standard views. We encourage dissents and discourse as long as it is accompanied with facts and evidence and is done in good faith and in a polite and respectful manner.

PURPOSE OF THE DISCUSSION THREAD

Like in r/neoliberal and r/neoconnwo, you can talk about anything you want in the Discussion Thread. So, socialize with other people, talk about politics and conservatism, tell us about your day, shitpost or literally anything under the sun. In the DT, rules such as "stay on topic" and "no Shitposting/Memes/Politician-focused comments" don't apply.

It is my hope that we can foster a sense of community through the Discussion Thread.

IMAGE FLAIRS

r/Tuesday will reward image flairs to people who write an effort post or an OC text post on certain subjects. It could be about philosophy, politics, economics, etc... Available image flairs can be seen here. If you have any special requests for specific flairs, please message the mods!

The list of previous effort posts can be found here

I will never understand how voters thought another term of Trump was a good idea.

The next 4 years are going to be exhausting.

I wanted large GOP majorities in Congress and a Harris White House. 235 Republican House members and 56 Republican Senators would have been just right.

Instead, unlike 2016 and 2020, Trump ran ahead of most other Republicans.

Shit sucks, man.

He gives people who are tired of holding their tongue permission to not have to think before they speak.
