If being a liberal means having that atrocious spelling and grammar then consider me a conservative
“If being a Liberal means accepting other humans for what they are, I’d rather be a selfish prick and vote for a Racist, sexist, exploitative, environmentally destructive, rights-restricting, oppressive party.”
I like stereotyping too
Well… GenZ doesn’t like gaslight as well 😉
Yeah watching what happens every time the liberal party gets in charge in Canada will cure that left turn most take from 20 to 30.
Grifting is pretty profitable these days
You are right
It’s easier to be reactionary, and being reactionary leads to conservatism.
We’re not in the era of blocky flip phones anymore, please don’t ever write like this woman.
Nice ad hominem. And now something about the actual topic of her message. You can do it.
I’m a communist, you slug - of course I agree that conservatism is a cancer. The problem is that it’s written like she just learned what letters are.
She’s not writing an essay, it’s stylistic or for ease of typing, terseness, I read it like someone speaking without thinking and I had to go back to see what you were talking about
Which is a horrible choice that instead communicates lack of intelligence.
Indoctrinated parents indoctrinate kids.
See also: religion.
I’m just perplexed how kids are still religious in 2024 with vast amount of free information out there. I thought this cult bullshit was about to end with my generation when we got free, unrestricted information exchange invented.
I guess you can’t fix irrationality with rationality huh
Most people are not actually people, they are people-like imposter automatons and they are dumb as hell and can be manipulated like clay.
Religion is not always a cult. All religions are not like Christianity.
See Hinduism, Buddhism, confussionism
Hinduism is the textbook definition of a cult. It’s just old AF, so we give it a pass.
How tho
I suggest you look up Kali for a start.
Kali Linux?
Linux is definitely a cult, and I am a proud cultist
Being born into a conservative household can be a hard hurdle to clear. I grew up with the unquestioning belief that the left was straight-up evil (shocker: that was projection) but then moved around a ton and worked alongside a huge diversity of people after highschool cuz I joined the military and didn’t have a choice: that exposure was a real shock, but since our brains don’t like being wrong, I resisted it for a good while before finally acknowledging that I was acting like a moron and started thinking more critically about politics and what political decisions meant for my community.
Not everyone gets that healthy slap-to-their-senses. Doesn’t excuse shit, but that’s the ‘why’.
It’d be interesting to see some actual political metrics on other service members. The military is always seen as being SOLID red, and while yes it does lean that way, the tiny bubble of the military that was my personal field of view seemed maybe a 60-40 split; and I personally went in red, and separated borderline radical blue. I know at least a handful of others who did the same… no idea if it’s always been that way, or if this is a developing trend. Or if I happened to be stationed in an uncharacteristically blue slice of military. /shrug.
For men, a lot of it has to do with personal frustration and several “sources” or “influencers” pointing to communism, cultural marxism, feminism, etc, as the culprits of everything bad going on. Attacking a scapegoat you’ve been led to believe is “the reason” you can’t get a job or a girlfriend is easy and emotionally satisfying.
Thinking, rationalizing and realizing how and why shit’s fucked up, down, left and right doesn’t fill you with good vibes.
But you don’t need a scapegoat. The problem is literally the billionaires. You only need a scapegoat to justify white supremacist hierarchy building.
To be fair if you’re anything past Boomer, at this point you should be too embarrassed to vote for any GOP candidate. When the party decided to support Trump—a guy with proven sexual assault charges, pending fraud charges, pending classified document charges, a penchant for insurrection that he happily acknowledges, and more and more video surfacing of him unable to be coherent, hopefully most everyone with any connection to reality has realized it’s time to kick him and the GOP to the curb.
Add to that being black or LGBT.
Lmao, lesser evil trap
Clowns arguing about politics like they’re both not only slightly different pieces of shit
It’s tough being young. Jobs don’t pay what they used to. Rent costs too much. Even the food is a struggle.
You know who is the blame for this?
Brown people.
This message is brought to you by the conservative party of your country. They’re all the fucking same.
If you’re not a liberal when you’re 25, you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative by the time you’re 35, you have no brain.
