The only reason conservatives come out against something is because someone else told them to. They can't fathom that some people actually believe in things without getting paid or being told to.

words to a conservative are just magic words to make others take your side. it's inconceivable to them that anyone could actually mean what they say

Right outta the Fascism playbook isn't it? "There's no way these people could have a legitimate concern, so instead of arguing against them, let's just assume their not rational actors."

Saves a lot of time, mental energy, and it's not really possible to PROVE you're not getting paid by George Soros. They have nothing to lose here.

And, because this is America and our timeline is the dumbest, the Republicans actually embody every single boogieman scarepoint they bring up about everyone else.

I had dinner with my mom after months of shunning her for being OK with child jails for brown kids. At the end, I asked if she was still on the Trump train, and she said "I don't see why I'd get off, my stocks have only gone up!" Also stuff about how only Dems bring up anything racial, etc. So when we parted, I refused to hug her goodbye 'cause it'd feel gross pretending everything is OK and she said "You're trying to force me to think like you, you're the real fascist." I'm surprised neither she nor my dad have invoked Soros's name yet.

Sorry to vent, I'm still despairing. :smith:

When your grassroots is astroturfed bullshit backed by dark money and shadowy billionaire donors, you assume everyone is.

You don't see the kind of focus from the left on, say, Adleson, the Kochs or the Mercers, who are actually secretly propping up dickheads like Ben Shapiro and the Federalist

I love and hug my mom, but I have a cousin who does everything she can to avoid her mom, and while I tolerate that aunt and do things to help her (mostly because my parents have a legal responsibility for her) she is bat poo poo loving crazy and I completely understand my cousin not wanting to be around her in any capacity.

if there weren't a conspiracy keeping them down they'd have to face the fact that nothing they believe in makes any drat sense. they like the communist liberal soros deep state conspiracy because it makes it even easier to discard inconvenient facts, and also perhaps more importantly so they can claim they're victims

they picked soros as the puppetmaster because he's jewish

I mean I guess superficially it makes a tiny bit of sense, given that he does donate to progressive causes, but the idea that he funds widespread conspiracies designed to victimize conservatives is loving ludicrous.

I disowned my mom after she said some truly horrible stuff and had a drug-fueled mental break after decades of refusing mental health meds and therapy. Now I'm out of therapy, can touch people without crying, and I have friends who care if I exist. gently caress your mom, no hugs unless you feel comfortable with it. Feel the burn and hail gay satan.

In the military absolutely no one wants to get stuck outside during colors. I mean grown men and women would be power walking at an incredible rate to get inside so they don't have to stand there and salute the flag for 30 seconds. I always keep that in mind when people talk about how it is some great affront to the nebulous concept of "the troops" when folks kneel during the anthem.

sorry for dragging this quote from 10 ish pages back but it's sooooooooooo infuriatingly true. 450 was the start of an absolute insane rush to the gate every base I was at until they started regulating end of day formations to include the salute

The Kochs funding the Tea Party did get attention, at least for a little while. As I remember it, that's when the Soros puppetmaster stuff started so there's some degree of just plain projection going on. "It's not us with the rich overlords pulling our strings from the shadows, it's you!"
