What makes liberal Democrats the superior party is their humanity.

if you look at history the last 100 years you will see time and time again it was the Democrats who worked to use government to advance humanity e.g. Hoover versus FDR and the New Deal!

The civil rights legislation of 1964 where every liberal Democrat voted for it and most conservative Democrats (Dixiecrats) voted against it.

And It was general education that brought compassion and humanity.

As we became more educated, so did our society and as society became more educated everyone became more educated e.g. why large cities are more liberal.

And it is logical e.g. things like civil rights and democracy, are abstract concepts and until a 150 years or so few humans were thinking abstractly.

Humans lived in a concrete world. They were not good at connecting the dots!

Abstract thinking takes a ton of learning to effect. Understanding Zen or Existentialism is a good example. Takes time and work.

Then we introduced 13 years of mandatory education for everyone and so we began to find our humanity as we came to understand it e.g. civil rights, for minorities, women and gays.

If you look around the world the most humane countries are the educated ones, Nordic countries, and the least humane are the least educated e.g. central America and Haiti, because they cannot organize the rule of law.

And MAGA seems to want to go back to a theocracy or dictatorship!!??
