jjjalljsConservatives have bad ideas about nearly everything. They should under no circumstances be allowed to have any power. I’d even say they’re an existential threat to the US and the rest of humanity.
It’s far past time to stop treating them as just folks with a different opinion. This is not “oh well they wanted to paint the bedroom walls green and I wanted blue.”
Someone announcing themselves a conservative should be taken as a declaration of a threat. Removing them from power is self defense.
sparkleI agree with what you’re getting at, but “conservative” is relative and doesn’t actually indicate specific beliefs. Easy monkey’s paw victim…
What word would you prefer? I considered “Republicans” but that doesn’t catch people outside the US. “Contemporary Republicans or people who would vote for them” isn’t very catch
I don’t think there’s an all-encompassing term for people who have “destructive”/harmful beliefs considered conservative. Most I can think of is “bigoted capitalists”, but even “bigoted” could be interpreted way differently.
What I go with, though, is “fascists” and “collaborators”. Plain and simple, straight to the point – that’s how I see our conservatives, their supporters, and their enablers.
