I've been saying the cons are not real patriots and that they hate the real America and the ideals of this country for decades now. Of course all cons will deny this, but so do many "moderates" that seek to tone-police such truths....but it's fairly obvious that the cons truly do hate this country.
Agreed. Most everything they do is anti democratic.
There's a reason they stop reading the Constitution at "We the people..." and celebrate the Confederacy.
The bigger words past that point in the document tend to give them trouble 🥺
If they ever get to the words "promote the general Welfare", they'll ban it in schools for promoting socialism.
They don't hate America, they hate what it's becoming. Which is to say, they want to go back to pre-civil rights, when you were effectively guaranteed success by being a straight, white, and male.
And yet you've never really been effectively guaranteed success in America unless you were straight, white, male and already rich. And most of them aren't rich.
Used to be only land-holding white males had a right to vote. Let’s go back to that and reverse all the woke.
/s I hate that I have to append this for people to understand sarcasm.
Hell, isn't that what Elon is proposing? I think it was him saying it should just be tech bros running shit unless I've got the wrong idiot tech bro.
they want to go back to pre-civil war
FTFY
I've seen some of them actually say they want to go back to the Middle Ages.
Well we’re gonna overshoot the warm period but I can offer the increase in pagan practices as part of the cultural zeitgeist
When, of course, civil rights has little to nothing to do with it. The current issues with the country in terms of economy, such as rampant inflation, is the result of the very policies conservatives have been extolling for generations. To go back in the manner they want would mean to reduce and revert the impact conservative policies have harmfully built up over the generations.
Dumb people being influenced by misinformation designed to crush the west.
Animals.
