Partisanism

Like racism except that the person assumes something about someone due to their political beliefs instead of race. Someone who does this would be a partisanist.

Republicans who assume all Democrats support Obama's policies are guilty of partisanism.

negative partisanship

Two parties looking separately but using a tactic of making one candidate appear like a poor choice in comparison to their opponent, making modern democracy appear legitimate.

Biden aids in the appearance of Trump as a correct choice as president for 2024, when it’s been the decision all along. All because of the beguile of negative partisanship.

the other partisanship

A way to describe 2 sides in strong opposition by comparing them to the Democratic and Republican Parties.

"Let's watch the Red Sox beat the Yankees!" "Oh, yeah, the other partisanship!"

partisanize

To make every disagreement about anything a partisan matter.

When I pointed out that giving an enormous tax break to the uber-wealthy obviously would promote even greater inequality than currently existed, he accused me of trying to partisanize the issue.

Parisans

Parisans are people who adhere strictly to all social hygiene practices. These would include people who practice good social hygiene in order not to afflict innocents who they may come into casual contact with by imposing whatever virus or organism they're playing host to. Parisans understand that they may afflict someone unknowingly and are socially conscious individuals. Parisans are responsible human beings and are VERY considerate of those around them. Parisans don't need laws to dictate to them what is and what is not socially acceptable hygienic behavior. They are usually very well researched on these topics and will not listen to conspiracy theories that say things to the contrary and are unsupported by any scientific data.

A group of Parisans saw a chap walking down the street during a pandemic, not wearing a mask, and gave them the facts about the usefulness of masks and the abatement/mitigation of respiratory disease. Literature may soon become available.

partisan blinders

Focusing solely on the wrongdoings committed by the "other" political party, while completely ignoring and/or denying the wrongdoings of one's own political party.

Take the partisan blinders off man, your favorite senator is lying to you.

Partisan-line liberalism

The same 5 leftist suppositions regurgitated repeatedly by people who literally think they are more intelligent than anyone who disagrees with them. Because if they were smart they would think what I think! Right? For example: The conflation of abortion and healthcare. The idea ender is a social construct (Which it's not but you're willing to collectively pretend that it is for the sake of making people feel the way you want them to feel and that's all that matters boy-oh-boy are you suuuper willing to collectively PRETEND things reach a desired outcome. It's almost like... You don't actually care). If there are disparate outcomes between people it can be attributed to UNFAIR DISCRIMINATION (which we care so much about) and nothing else. Like, if all the retards with fat cocks were getting all of the women. It would clearly be because of societal or systematic discrimination and demonization of not retarded, not fat cocks. Otherwise the outcomes would be the same... Right? Or is there NOT discrimination against those things? Nevermind. It seems like a lot of atheists are using this dogma to supplant the religion they abandoned. You're required accept all of the suppositions based on an appeal to an authority... That is superordinate to all other authorities (even if there are other authorities who contradict them)... Who wrote a book... Why does this sound familiar?

Partisan-line liberal "Trans women are real women!"

Hym "You know... There is a real difference between a trans woman and a not trans woman... Right?"

Partisan-line liberal "No. Trans people exist."

Hym "I don't doubt their existence but there IS a difference. They are not the same."

Partisan-line liberal "But intersex people..."

Hym "Are not the same as trans people. There are differences between things."

Partisan-line liberal "The brain scans.... The history..."

Hym " 'More like' is not the same as 'is the same as' and the history relates to their existence and not to whether or not they are different the non-trans women."

Partisan-line liberal "Insert slogan here!"

Hym "I think Partisan-line liberalism is the result of you agreeing to collectively PRETEND to trick 'stupid people' into not violencing trans people. I think that you think that if you just don't acknowledge the difference and prevent people from pointing out the difference between the the two things you will trick people into not hurting them. WHAT'S REALLY HAPPENING, on the other hand, is you're tricking the trans people into thinking that there is not difference... and then the trans people are tricking men into sleeping with them... and then they're getting beaten to death... You're doing that."
