I’m just having a hard time why people are so obsessed with what “government” we operate under.
people tossing out terms just to scare people
reminds me of what Mandela said; who cares about the color of the cat if it’s catching all the mice?
nikkas ain’t doing what’s best because they wanna continue some ugly ass idea that’s imploding on itself...
Conservatism is one of the single most destructive ideologies that exists today.
It opposes action on climate change
It opposes expanding access to education
It opposes access to healthcare
It opposes an expansion of the job market
It opposes legalizing and regulating multibilliondollar business(drugs, prostitution)
It opposes family planning so that people have kids when they're ready
It opposes sensible community protections
They are the equivalent of people on a ship that is heading towards an iceberg saying "this is fine. We've been traveling this direction for days, that iceberg isn't a big deal". Its core animating principle is "things can get better, but they shouldn't. Im fine with how things are so everyone else should be too."
When you remind yourself of the above facts, these people's insane rhetoric is something that you expect.
