Four Rules of the Grand Old party of the Republic

As a rule, Conservatives show the following qualities:

Xenophobia: a hatred of those groups thought to threaten or oppress that ideal heritage.

Militarism and authoritarianism: a central tenet of the Republican Party is that people of the correct heritage need to band together and reassert their dominance.

Policies of expansionism: The Republican Party claims of a superior heritage naturally lead to the desire to demonstrate their superiority through both internal and external dominance. Often this is militaristic, through conquest, external excursions, or internal pogroms; but it may also appear as a drive to create economic or scientific superiority.

Masculinism: The same claims of superior heritage lead to a male-centered worldview in which it is merely accepted that superior heritage implies superior physical and/or moral qualities that entitle men to greater sexual freedom. Women, by contrast, are expected to breed to help increase the numbers of that superior group.

Advertising: the Republican Party relies on public advertising to promote their ideals and reinforce a perception of their group’s superiority, while simultaneously demonizing any groups that interfere with their progress or serve as targets of hatred.

About Art

55 years old. By training, ability and experience I am a master toolmaker. My most recent projects include designing and building a process to grind a G rotor pump shaft with four diameters and holding all four diameters within plus or minus 4 microns of nominal. This was an automated process using two centerless grinders refitted to my specifications using automatic load and unload machines plus automatic feedback gauging. I also designed and built an inspection machine to check for the presence and size of a straight knurl on a hinge pin using a vision system for non-contact gauging.
