Nah, dude has stood up strong for conservative values: patriarchy, racism, genocide, authoritarianism, fascism, etc.

The garbage in government absolutely fucking suck, but they'd NEVER get as far as they've gotten without the absolute scumbag, piece of shit, mercenary mouths at places like fox news, Newsmax, OANN, etc...
I hate Trump with every fiber of my being, but the propagandists like Sean Hannity, those fuckers I'd pay to see put to a firing squad. I fucking hate the propagandists more than ANYTHING. They turned society into what it is. They stoke and "rationalize" the hate so many express towards marginalized groups. They are the only reason we have to deal with Trump and the current GOP... They are why we can never have a government that actually tends to the needs of the people and to actually fairly tax the wealthy.
I wish hell was real so I could have some comfort in the fact that Ingram, Hannity and fucker Carlson would suffer for eternity.
interesting movie you should check out, God Bless America, directed by the inimitable Bobcat Goldthwait.
it's a sort of dirtbag dark comedy blend of Falling Down meets Joe vs The Volcano. middle aged guy gets a terminal diagnosis and goes on a cross country rampage taking out right wing pundits. there's a fair amount of poorly aged schlock and nostalgia fetishizing but the core premise is enough to make it worthwhile.
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely have to check that out
I have a firm secular belief that heaven could be made on earth if we all worked together.
On reflection I find we could probably also do a limited trial run of hell, for certain offenders.
I wish hell was real so I could have some comfort in the fact that Ingram, Hannity and fucker Carlson would suffer for eternity.
As a Buddhist, I wish for them to be reborn as Gazans, Blacks in America, or any other disfranchised person of color.
What's the picture say? When I look, all I can see is the fox News logo and then my head starts to hurt.
"Conservatism" was founded by literal monarchists. Trump represents the truest form of conservatism seen in the US since its founding (exceeding even the Nazis and Confederacy, at this point).
"The Confederacy" was such a shitshow and so short-lived that it barely constitutes a "confederacy" anymore than a "no girls allowed" sign kept their moms from finding their porn stash.
False. He still meets the core conservative values of being white, blonde, straight, cisgender, and male. And “Christian”. But above all else, bigoted and anti-intellectual.
It's hard to overstate how little I care about conservative values, especially as demonstrated by the actions of politicians instead of what they say and write. Really, the current regime in the US is just the logical conclusion of what conservatives have already been doing for decades.
I tried to understand them. I really tried.
I spent way too many hours asking questions in good faith of Trump Supporters only to have them either lie or try to gaslight me.
It’s absolutely insane.
There is no coming back for the GOP.
I have zero respect for them and they have zero credibility.
Conservatives sucked even before Trump ...
Yes they did.
They didn’t seem to be so bad but then again how do you grade such things?
The GOP of old was like a bad fart.
The GOP under trump is like the bubbling hot springs of Rotorua
What if I'm not screaming in horror because that's who these people always were and I had to grow up around them?
This is where we are.
It's no longer
"I didn't speak' and there was no one left to speak for me".
It's now "I spoke' so I ended up in a concentration camp in Central America".
My parents would call me in tomorrow if the could, they already hate me because I'm the"stupid socialist"
sounds like you've either done your screaming already, or you agree with them and don't want to admit it.
In rural America, no one can hear you scream
I'm just out of breath and my throat hurts from screaming so long.
The brainwashing is working
Political identites are fundamentally about group-belonging, not ethics or consistency.
Moreover, conservativism is just the modern term for aristocratic and aristocrats have always valued complete freedom for themselves and the enslavement of everyone below.
"Why are you wearing that stupid ~~man~~ conservative suit?"
