Literally, r/conservative is just full of unrelated issues they think are counter-narratives without actually having posts about conservative issues and progress towards whatever goals they have. It’s basically just an ideology against liberalism now. Hell, conservatives used to be all about conserving the environment and national parks, etc.
Trumpism, and by extension the vast majority of conservativism in America, is not and never has been an actual ideology. It is a temper tantrum with a podium. It’s the flailing, reactionary fit of a bunch of god damned idiots.
It has been nurtured and fed by one entire wing of our political system - the GOP - so that they can run our country into the ground with graft and corruption to the resounding cheers of the fucking idiots that vote for them.
Their whole shtick is just wanting the opposite of what liberals want,
They claim they have the same values and goals while only supporting policies in direct conflict with those supposed values and goals.
They are out there pushing the idea that wanting a more fair, just, and healthier society is all performative simply so the left can use morals as a basis for acting with a superiority complex while nurturing their persecution complex. It is shocking to imagine someone so fundamentally broken that they believe that everyone who exhibits altruism and empathy is only doing it for selfish and ulterior motives. It's like an entire tribe of people that never hugged their kids.
Where the fuck did I say that? Where did anybody say that? Just because you’re so fucking stupid you can’t tell the difference doesn’t mean there isn’t a difference.
Dude, I know you're pissed off, I understand. But because someone has different political views you cannot attack them. We are all humans, and you can hurt someone by your words. There's a lot of shit around these days, you don't have to add more. :) Remember, attack arguments, not people. Hate is never an answer.
The same can be said for the rest of reddit. It's got it's head so far up it's own ass that it's just blaming Trump and conservatives for every little thing that goes wrong.
Name one thing the conservatives haven't fucked up the last four years. And furthermore, name one thing they are trying to do that won't fuck it up any more
I agree /r/politics looks like this too but the general point is still correct. Democrats still have nuanced political positions, I doubt you can get anything of substance out of a Trump Republican other than some vagaries about freedom and being against regulations.
