Their values are ridiculously consistent, they're just shit:

  • Red team good.
  • Blue team scum of the earth.

I mean morally consistent like being pro life but also pro death penalty and pro war but then again vote down any VA funding. Family values and rapingb kids, etc...

Those are consistent you just aren't thinking like them.

Pro-life isn't about the baby, it's about protecting the patriarchy by enforcing man's will upon women. The same goes for raping kids.

And its the same reason they are scared shitless of transfolk and drag queens basically tossing traditional gender-roles in the trash, and in doing so, loudly protesting the very concept of the patriarchy.

I don't think they see anything wrong with not finding VA or any veterans benefits. In their eyes, veterans signed up knowing the risks, collected their salary and benefits as-agreed at enlistment, and that's that.

The governments responsibility to the soldier ends with their term of service. Any lasting effects is on the vet to deal with. Very...caveat emptor. Which is also consistent.

Thats at least better than how they treat kids. You'd think that if the government mandates the kids get educated and provides an education, during those hours the kids are in the exclusive care of the state...the kids should be getting fed and not shot at.

But instead, their solution to these problems is that kids shouldn't have to be educated, apparently.

But see it's not consistent because the moment they're that soldier, elderly on fixed income, sick, etc, the system and everyone in it are supposed to drop everything and help them. "Get your government hands off my Medicare", as it was.

They're the same shit eating morons that voted for Trump's tariffs because Biden made things to expensive .
