    If only conservatives gave as much of a shit about the constitution or the rule of law as they claim. Fucking hypocrites.

      Reactionaries only value the rule of law when it gives them cover to revert to the status quo ante.

      They only care about one thing: power to tell you what to do. There’s no principle to violate, because they don’t think that way; to them, empathy and compassion are weaknesses to exploit. Principles are useful for propaganda, not a code to live by.

      They’re willing to do anything to get it, too— selling out their country to a Nazi slug was just a bonus.
