It’s going on so much in our world, even if I try to ignore it. I try to think conservatives aren’t all bad, but every one I’ve seen is awful. Now I think they’re all bad, sadly. Take this one user for example online, saying immigrants are evil but then following it up with “I don’t HATE immigrants”. Uh, yeah, sure you don’t. Defending Trump, rape, and pedophilia too thinking it’s a good thing too. How evil do you have to be?

And another thing, people either denying or making fun of people like Anne Frank for showing attraction to not only boys but other girls.

That’s all I have to say…

And yeah, I get the whole “you made a mistake thinking Conservatives were good” thing, I know. I learned and I don’t think they’re so good anymore.

    Conservatism, by definition, wants to keep things the way they are. And the only way to hold that view is if you ignore, deny, or dehumanize those for whom the current system isn’t a problem.

    So when we as a society identify systemic issues, conservatives will always be opposed to fixing them. It’s the heart of their ideology.

    Not trying to beat a dead horse, I’m mostly posting this for other readers to understand why they and you have experienced stuff like this.

    I can only see conservativism as a cult for the narcissistic and the gullible. I do feel for people born into cults but at a certain point you are responsible for continuing on believing it.
