Keeping things the same as they were before would be the “end of the United States”?
How many times have I asked why people thought it was right to be conservative, and they said, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” or something along those lines?
Now, I guess they’re just throwing that whole pretext out, as well. Not that I ever believed people really thought that way. Try and find a conservative who doesn’t lie about what they believe.
I don’t think they believe anything. They know they should feel the same as their in-group, or they’re out. Everything they say is like an octopus inking everywhere. A distraction.
“If it ain’t broke(for me) don’t fix it!” They like being on top, and conservatism gives them that. It also hands out a lot of pain to other people but they don’t care about that.
Yep it’s wilhout over and over again. It’s the heirarchy that they crave. They don’t care about the means as long as it’s “my people on top, your people squashed face down into the mud”.
It’s, at its core, all the same. From reaganism to the ku klux klan.
People that want freedoms, rights, and dignity for all people regardless of sex, age, disability, or skin tone are their enemies, and will remain their enemies no matter which form the “conservatives” occupy.
Back when taxes for rich people were about 80%? And a family could live comfortably on a single salary. Or be wealthy with a job with a degree requirement? Oh, not those times, just the slaves, huh.
Exactly. They don’t want to go back to a time when you could be happy, healthy, and raise a family.
They want to go all the way past those times to Antebellum America, when there were no Federal income taxes (US government raised most of it’s funding from things like tariffs…sound familiar?), when kids died from diseases that we’ve since been able to prevent with vaccines, and when you had to have the kids that survived work the mines to keep the family from starving.

Not only do they not care, inflicting harm is the entire point for these people.

What they are trying to conserve is not how it is, it’s how it was.
You know, back before the Civil War when they could own people.

They wish they was in the land of cotton.
