And why many call it "Democrat" instead of "Democratic" as a means of disrespect. Historically the major party in the South of the Civil War and their secession. TD
"The revolution that the Democratic Party has been pressing for at least six decades would abolish capitalism and free markets, seize the means of production, destroy the nuclear family, erase Christianity and Judaism, defund law enforcement, reopen the borders, censor speech, pack the Supreme Court, ration energy and health care, overturn our civil order and uproot Western civilization."
"In response to last week’s editorial “None Dare Call It A Republic,” one reader said I&I prefers “the term republic over democracy because” we “like the Republican Party” and “don’t like the Democratic Party.” Therefore we refuse to use the word “Democratic” because it “sounds just like the word ‘democratic.’” We can’t say we like the Republican Party, but we can say we despise the Democratic Party. Read on and we’ll tell you why.
"First, though, take a look at the reader’s full comment, found here. He calls us ignorant, which is fine – he’s entitled to his opinion. But his statement reminds us quite a bit of the gibberish yakked up by Joe Biden in last year’s presidential debate, which was so incoherent that in one instance Donald Trump said “I really don’t know what he said at the end of that sentence. I don’t think he knows what he said either.”
"But we understand enough of what our dedicated reader said to feel that it would be helpful to explain why we don’t like the Democratic Party, and not just so readers will understand but also to make it clear just how dissolute that party is.
"We could start with its lust for big government and all that comes with it: steep taxes, cruel regulation, appalling violations of property rights and an imperious and ever-hungry administrative state.
"Or we could frame our argument in terms of civil society vs. political society, with the Democrats hard in favor of the latter, which is a serial violator of liberty.
"Instead we’ll focus on what the Democrats want over all: a revolution." . . . More...
"This is why the “big tent” Democratic Party attracts disparate groups, such as environmental activists, eager central planners, redistributionists, anti-gun scolds, antifa goons, COVID tyrants, neo-New Dealers, radical Islamists, militant transgender moms, pride cultists, race hustlers, criminal coddlers, infanticide advocates, male-hating feminists, DEI zealots, busybodies, nannies, groomers, dancing geriatrics and raging protesters who have no idea what they’re protesting."
