Said that it was bizarre that someone as rich as Elon Musk was more conservative

Tbf neither party holds the wealthy accountable. Those calling for it in the Dems are a minority that's repeatedly rebuked

The more wealth you earn the more conservative you tend to get.

he's probably right, but you might be conflating 'liberal' with 'progressive'

Obama was a liberal, Sanders is progressive

I think it kind of misses the point. Doesn't really matter what an individual's political views are. Conservative policies are what keep the rich rich and the poor poor.

Yeah but it'd also be valid in America to say "Sanders is more liberal than Obama" because liberal and conservative are basically synonyms for left and right

I hate it but yea that would get the point across too

More importantly though my point is even though Obama/wealthy folk are less liberal than Sanders, they arent conservative (no matter how much the alt left folk on CE want to pretend anyone who isnt a socialist is a closet conservative)
