Something about how no matter how noble their intentions, government programs always end in 1984.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in Why has NH gone more to left theses days? by BoringAccountName78
Idk what fantasy land you're living in, but whenever you feel like returning to reality, there's an open seat.
I agree that the socially conservative aspects of the republican party are deeply unpopular, but Bernie is wayyyyy further left than most people are comfortable with.

Imagine if Bernie had won the primary in 2016 and then the presidency. The democratic party would be far more left than it is today. The national party would have felt constrained by a not-so-small and very vocal minority.
That's basically what the republicans are dealing with currently, on both a national and state level.
On a state level, instead of embracing and building on the staggering success of Chis Sununu, the NHGOP fights him at every turn. Keren Testerman talks like it's 1950 and Joe McCarthy is still in charge.
Given Georgia, Pennsylvania, likely Arizona, and of course Buldoc here in New Hampshire, this election turned out to be a second referendum on Trump. In almost every major race where he got involved, his candidate lost. It could be argued that he lost Republicans control of the Senate, but even if other factors were more important, he sure as hell didn't help.

Alternatively maybe, just maybe, I'd like to meet people outside of work who are passionate, hard working, and like building interesting things. Also what if, as an abstract hypothetical, I actually want to give back to my community???? And in that strange and nearly unimaginable reality, what if I think that it would be cool to use the skills I have to this aim.
