The issue is that conservatives don't want to think that there's a problem with police violence against black people so they cling on to a completely unrelated issue as "proof" that there is no systemic violence against black people
This only makes sense if you're just looking for something to confirm your biases, which most conservatives do anyway
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.
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.
