A steady dose of progressive propaganda will do this to the mind. Being told that climate change is real and the earth is going to burn in your lifetime. Being told there is a racist around every corner. Being told that the world is made for men and woman are second class citizens. Being told there are 1000 genders and that you should explore these “genders” and see if one of them is right for you. Being told we need to defeat a virus that is already worldwide or else it will kill us all.

I can go on and on. Conservatives are also just happier since they get outside more, are more likely to be in good physicial shape and take on personal responsibiliy.

In other words, facing a bleak reality instead of burying your head in the sand will do this to you.
The progressive view of the world is a lie. Believing in the lie is mind poison because your going against reality and the progressive world view not becoming a reality makes your view of the world doom and gloom.

“mind poison”

Found the sheep.

Look at you, copy-pasting other people’s words, pretending that you’ve ever had an original, inspired thought in your life.

You’re just a tool.

copy-pasting other people’s words, pretending that you’ve ever had an original, inspired thought in your life.

You’re just a tool.

Your a tool also, just like everyone else. Most things we say or think come from other people, thats human nature.

What is your point?

Lol oh yes the old 1000 genders that all the kids are being taught about in make believe conservative delusion land where all the schools have litter boxes for the kids that identify as cats.

Shame on the liberal propaganda machine for brain fucking conservatives into making up all this dumb shit to get angry about.

You are right about the virus too…you should french kiss everyone who coughs to show us how dumb worrying about being sick is! That will teach the liberals!

To put it simply, the happiest family I've ever seen in recent times was a couple of conservative couples, some of which were steel workers and some of which were factory workers in the local town. They all lived in the same town and got to visit each other for Christmas.

The couples? They largely meet at church. They also go to church, and have deep connections to their community.

The conservatives I knew were always going hunting and being outside and getting big ass fun trucks and running around doing their thing in little nearly idyllic communities.

Honestly, I think the prediction here isn't the politics, but living in a rural area around nature and without the city life and culture that comes with it.

These "ignorance is bliss" people are fools. Conservative groups have big big problems, but I think it would be a mistake to assuming there is no upside to those more traditional ways of life.

You really think climate change isn’t real? Oh honey, bless your heart in the southern sense of the phrase.

Gosh no wonder you aren’t depressed if you don’t have the burden of a brain.

Even if your right about me being “unaware”, I am still a happy man.

Ignorance is bliss as they say.

Seriously after the summer we had you don’t believe in climate change? Really??

People are starting those forest fires if your not aware.
Yeah are people out there in the forest flapping their arms to spread them over thousands of square miles too or is it because half the planet is covered in drought?
DYOR or stay blue pilled.

Wherever you’re doing research is the wrong place.

I hope you expand outside your bubble some day, sweetie.

I see all sides. You think the truth is false. Whatever…
Obviously this guy is just trolling but the idea that conservatives (who one the whole are older and live in more rural areas with less access to healthcare) are more likely to be in good physical shape than liberals (more likely to be young and live in cities where there are wide healthcare opportunities) actually did make me laugh a little.
I dunno I mean if you look at their comment history it’s all “climate change isn’t real” and “why won’t the lefties tolerate my intolerance” kinda stupid shit.

I can go on and on. Conservatives are also just happier since they get outside more, are more likely to be in good physicial shape and take on personal responsibiliy.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahah

Laugh now, cry later.
How far did you go in school?
Leftie logic and ridicule at its finest
It’s okay if you didn’t finish high school. We’re here to help you understand the world. ❤️

Ok

Tell me how power works, did they teach you that in school?

Tell me how money works? Did you learn that in high school or university?

I can go on and on, and something tells me you don’t have a clue.

We’re ridiculing you because you’re painfully ignorant. You can’t even spell. Who would take your opinion seriously?

Who would take your opinion seriously?

Those who are based of course.

You misspelled “basic”.

He thinks tertiary education is “bad”.
This is actually a useful comment in how well it succinctly distills all the batshit crazy conspiracy theories of the modern far right
You need to get out of your echo chamber. If you did, you will see how absurd your comment is.
Is this satire? Are you playing a role? Poe’s Law means I cannot tell.

In good shape? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Are there stats to support this? If I look at my family & my block it’s the other way around, with one household and exception but that household is a biracial deeply Christian household, so conservative in one way but not politically conservative.

On the rest of it, aren’t conservatives stressed over imaginary things too? Drag queens grooming children, liberals taking their guns, liberal indoctrination in schools?
