Trump conservatives don't care about anything as long as "libruls" are "seething" by which they mean saying anything in reaction to the idiocy of conservatism.

Would be a lot better to see if their crashing and burning didn't include trying and somehow succeeding in making a fucking mess of LGBTQ+ protections

Not that any of this matters to your average conservative though, they've built up enough cognitive dissonance that they'll never view themselves or their party as wrong or failing

Right. Their party should be in a consistent state of dwindling numbers, as a result of mass imprisonment for their multitude of crimes.

Embarrassed for the current state of things and hopeful for the future. That's about it. And that's why this right leaning moderate has voted only once for a Republican presidential candidate since 1996 when I could start voting (George W. Bush in 2000). Every other vote has gone to the Democrats.

But I also don't agree with the GOP stance on certain things. I believe in gun reform, everyone should be allowed to marry and be happy, abortion should not be abolished... and a few others I'm sure I missed.

I don't think they care. They've been doing the scorched Earth strategy. The only Republicans caring are the old school GOP that still remembers what it was like to have some semblance of a brain.

For a party that is crashing and burning they sure do still have the government in a stranglehold. Biden does nothing but concede to them. Should have just called their bluff with the debt cieling but Democrats by nature are too timid to fight.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


1) I think they can go back. Will they though is another question

2 examples of what it would look like:
A) I'd like to see a flat tax across the board, for companies included, without all the reductions allowing some to legally pay little or nothing.
B) I'd like to see less reliance on social programs - because people are motivated to work and their American dream is not so far fetched it can be a reality. But for this to happen, I believe people need to take more personal accountability and better define need vs want.

What kind of candidate would I like to see going forward? I'd like to see candidates who act on their beliefs without the lobbyists keeping them under their thumb. I'd like to see a candidate who can call out the current GOP for the shit that's gone on too long (which again would rely on people taking accountability for themselves). I'd like to see someone unafraid to stir the pot for the greater good.

Just my 2 cents. Can it happen? Sure. Will it? Probably not in my lifetime...

I don't know what specifically, if anything this topic refers to. But IMO I don't think it's a good idea to treat politics like team sports.

It's not your rival team you are dunking on, it's your fellow american with whom you have a lot of common cause.

Being motivated by spite or contempt for your political "rival team" is how we get very bad results IMO. When republicans did it over Hillary it's how we got Trump, for example.

Just a reminder that the Florida GOP is acting like the Nazis did...

They're restricting education, healthcare, and the rights to interact with society for a minority group. Just like the Nazis did to the Jewish people.

You're right, it's a matter of life and death. We should be far more vicious than we already are, because some policies will kill us and others won't.

You can be mad about conservatives in America and rightfully so, I didn't even say that they are worthy of respect but that doesn't change that topics like these that vaguely call out "the conservatives of CE" are eyeroll inducing given CE is very much an anti-republican space.

Given that I was speaking from an American perspective, and you yourself confirm that CE is majorly American, then surely you understand that while to the rest of the world America is right wing and conservative on the whole, in an American context (which this topic is clearly playing to, by the title) it still boils down to left wing/right wing, and CE certainly does not favour the right wing Republican party.

Now as far as the rest of the site the American conservative mindset is more prevalent, sure. Not here.

Edit: And while there's more to say about conservatives and republicans in the US, my original point was that this is a wack topic.

They're not the first one to use the "we're all Americans, we should be united!" card.

A card they're all too willing to play on forums like CE and 261 against progressives, but I'm safe in assuming they've never once played in response to someone calling for the suppression or outright murder of minorities. As always with these people, the atrocities being committed are fine. It's only when those being attacked fight back that they start asking why we can't all get along.

If by "the site" you mean the terms of use?

If so, it's neither. Conservative shitposters getting themselves warned or banned has nothing to do with bias. If anything it should be a major wakeup call that their "conservative opinions" keep violating a set of rules that require you to conduct yourself with decency.

They should be at the "maybe we're the bad guys?" phase.
