    No… Let’s be extremely clear. This is a dyed-in-the-wool conservative. A real conservative, not one of these corpo-christo-fascistic assholes wearing conservative skin-suits now.

    These are the people we’re supposed to be working with. They slow down progress a little bit to let the ideas fully bake. They moderate cultural change ensuring society keeps an eye on history and doesn’t completely leave behind the elderly and rural. They have a valuable place in our government and our society.

    These days in America they have largely gotten lumped into the “moderates”, “undecided”, “centrists”, and “fence sitters”, while actual fucking fascism entrenches itself deeper and deeper into our government.

    Democrats need to be forming coalitions with them and offering them a party at the table separate from fascist MAGA, but also separate from Democrats. They’ll pull voters away from MAGA and undecided, costing Democrats very little but emptying the floor from under the modern GOP.

      Dude I hate conservatives and Don’t believe they serve anything but holding us back. I fucking sick of tired of slow progress while the fucking planet is becoming unlivable. So just you understand how I don’t want any conservative in fucking office.

      They are the reason we get fucking fascism with their slowing up progress.

        Disagree. I’m progressive and I bet most of our values align but reasonable conservative voices are important.

          Disagree. I’m progressive and fuck republicans. Not all voices are important. Like Nazis and Nazi adjacent.

      On the contrary: the corpo-christo-fascistic assholes are the true conservatives. The thing you think “conservatism” is, is actually nothing but a lie they tell to make their ideology seem less blatantly authoritarian and abhorrent than it really is.
