They aren't the gluten-free crust, kale, heirloom tomato, and grilled tofu protein topping pizza that is Democrats. And they aren't the pepperoni, ham, bacon, and sausage pizza that is Republicans.

Sure, sometimes they have bell pepper and mushrooms...but those may turn off some of those Red State people. And sometimes they may have Pepperoni on just one half of the pizza...but that may upset some of those Blue State people. So they just stay with Cheese.

To have a good pizza party, you have to have all kinds of pizza there, but it's tough to get truly excited about the Cheese pizza. Sometimes it's the only palatable option available, but again, it's not often you come across someone who specifically seeks out just the Cheese pizza.

Everyone will eat the fucking cheese pizza. Everyone gets fed. It's the best pizza for government

Anyway the best pizza parties are when the host provides the base (cheese pizza) and there is a buffet of toppings people can choose from for their own damned pizza, without being forced into eating Merle's damned anchovy olive and pineapple abomination.

Now this is the level of political discussion I can get into. Parables of Pizzas
