Gay people can get married, transgender and non-binary people have become recognized by the mainstream, people are seriously launching mass protests against racism. Trump didn't slow down any of it, at all. Things just keep shifting further and further away from them. They have to realize they can't do anything to stop it, right? They don't seriously think they're going to reverse American culture back to the 50s.

They're hoping they can take over the country soon so they can stomp out all of those things and more. With how it seems with not enough people caring, it's inevitable.

As someone who used to be a conservative, the bottom line is that the GOP doesn't even know what to b**** about anymore. They are so inundated with misinformation, paranoia and lack of education, it's just non-stop panic attacks.

Of course they do. That's why they are doing their best to restrict votes to off set their atrocious policies.

There are true economic conservatives, but those people would never vote for a republican again

more people voted for a literal seditionist than for any previous presidential candidate, over the most conservative democrat who has ever run. we are waaaaaaay fucking beyond the old conservative platform.

I lean left socially, but right fiscally as I am against giving away my money to people who scam the system (not all, but a large % is deniable)

And it's not really saying much who's winning the "culture war" because by nature, humans are hiveminded and tribal, innate followers (in this day and age, media news is king) and are often devoid of independent thought.

Just because the majority of the public is changing, doesn't mean those in power are. And they are pushing HARD to ensure they can fuck over any and everyone, and regress the world back decades.

I think Trump actually made it more obvious conservatives had lost the "culture war" because before him, most people were perfectly fine to just sit by and let whatever happen in the background, because everything seemed to be going well enough.

Then Trump got elected, and conservatives couldn't hide their **** anymore, so everyone who otherwise wouldn't have given a **** is suddenly very politically motivated, while Trump has basically stretched his fanbase to the absolute limit, and still couldn't actually win.

I was referring to their inability to be aware of anything.

Like on the subject of gay marriage, they were not going to lay a finger to help or follow their ideals to disband all marriage law in government.

If it is a joke, why does the majority of the country not support it?

"Why don't we just get rid of marriage as a government thing, entirely?" doesn't go over well with not-rand-loons.

culture war means nothing when you're talking about a cult, their big tent insulates their members from the shifts in reality.
