realcaseyrollinsBarbie and the conservative outrage machine
Politics is downstream from culture, as Andrew Breitbart once said.
Seems like no matter what the movie was like, it was never going to be for conservative men. Seems like a waste to dwell on it.
I think the fact that a lot of conservative men feel the need to be a part of or have an opinion on everything is not unrelated.
Of course it’s related. It’s a tautology. Conservatives wouldn’t be conservative if they didn’t fear everything and hate everyone. It’s all they have.
Huh. You feel that way about orthodox Jews and Chinese Confucians, huh?
I probably wouldn’t say something like that about those conservative groups, but I guess I should really just be more open minded about such things.
Have you ever read Confucius? He’s the very definition of blinkered conservatism. The guy thought the first emperors were morally pure.
Absolutely, extremely conservative, and it predates Christianity by hundreds of years. But are we going to say they fear and hate everything? I have a sneaking suspicion that the statement was only intended to be referring to White American religious conservatives. The world is a big big place. Broad generalizations apply broadly and can have connotations that aren’t intended.
