Political Retardery

The act of offering criticisms against another due to your political party with no critical thinking in play. Being an automaton who parrots whatever the political party is currently pushing.
He said Dems should be ashamed of Harvey Weinstein and lambasted them for shaming Trump's infamous 'grab her by the p***y' comments. One is the leader of the free world and the other a movie executive in a business that created 'the casting couch' cliche. The party told him to invoke Weinstein as if he somehow speaks for anyone. It is pure political retardery. Think for yourself people!

Political Mainstream Supremacy Effect

A major political and social issue that arises when during election season, Republicans and Democrats have more access to the media, public relations professionals, and have more education and training on how to effectively campaign in political elections than nonmainstream political parties have, which results in the Republicans in Democrats winning more elections than nonmainstream political parties. Many members of the general public have been conditioned by the mainstream political parties to believe this is acceptable when in fact it is not. The best way to address this problem is actively work to ensure that nonmainstream political parties have more access to the media, p.r. professionals, and education on how to effectively run a political campaign.
The Political Mainstream Supremacy Effect has been around for many years and over time has had a very heavy, negative impact on the political diversity found in governments in all levels of jurisdiction all over the U.S.

accusation politics

Defending shortcomings of a political position or public figure by accusing the opposition of the same. The implication being that their opponent is a hypocrite and therefore can’t levy the criticism.
A: Donald Trump has a terrible track record with women: he paid a pornstar hush money, has been known to walk into the dressing room of underage women, is caught on tape talking about grabbing women by the pussy, and has more than 20 outstanding sexual assault allegations.
B: You can’t talk when the Democrats elected Bill Clinton.
A: Stop with the accusation politics, those are not even close to the same thing.

Politically christian

A person that identifies themselves as a Christian but doesn’t actually follow Jesus’s teachings of love, compassion or helping those in need, instead only as a way to justify their far-right political beliefs. These political beliefs can be argued to go directly against many of Jesus’s teachings. They often advocate for or practice homophobia, patriarchy and racism ”in the name of god”.
A: John treats his poor wife so bad, you’d think he would act better considering he is so religious

B: he’s really just politically christian, I’ve never seen that man pick up a bible in my life!

political normalization

The processes by which society establishes new norms, expectations, and standards, and in some cases existing norms and standards are replaced, in regards to what is and is not acceptable in politics. These processes happen in various settings including schools, colleges, businesses, churches, news channels, and homes. These processes can greatly impact how people think, act, and behave in many different political situations. In the present, the processes related to this have been heavily shaped by the Republicans and Democrats and in turn many of norms and standards being made about politics strongly favor the views of those groups, which in turn gives the mainstream political parties more influence on political and social issues than the nonmainstream parties have. The best way to counter this issue is to give nonmainstream political parties more access to these institutions so they can have their views heard and in turn potentially shape some of the norms that are made, which can help make these processes more fair and representative of the different groups in society.
Zachary: A lot of people strongly support the Republicans and Democrats these days; even though their views on certain issues don’t really benefit many members of U.S. population. I wonder why so many people support them when it does not really benefit them to do so?

Amy: It is because of the fact that political normalization, the processes by which new norms and standards are made related to what is and is not acceptable in politics, has been very heavily influenced by the Republican and Democratic parties, which has led to most of the norms that are made to strongly support their views and not the views of nonmainstream parties, like the Reform Party, or the Constitution Party. As a result, most people in society don’t even consider voting for nonmainstream parties or support people who agree with their ideas.

Political tightrope
