      this site is pretty far left, so people downvote everything they don’t agree with

        That goes for everyone. Basically all of my comments here get downvoted to some extent. It’s ultimately used as a disagree button, so why should I bother caring what happens with it?

      Because most people disagree with conservativism, especially on the internet where people have freedom of information/anonymity.

        Then, leave America.

        America wasn’t founded by liberals. You may already know that

          Maybe one day, but not today.

          America wasn’t founded by liberals.

          I disagree with that sentiment, as many of the founding fathers were progressives in at least some way or another. Progressivism just looked a lot different back then. And depending on the definition, all of the founding fathers could be considered progressives of their time.

          But even if what you’re saying is true, so what? Why should I care?
