Conservatism in a Nutshell

No matter how you try to pretty it up, Conservatism (religious or secular) is entirely about "I've got mine, so FUCK YOU!".

Unforgivable

Turn the loans back on With the flip of a switch But don't tax the rich Don't tax the religious Instead, just dangle the prize Student loan forgiveness To keep them in line

"We are defending the traditional faith of our culture!"

Bitch, modern Evangelicalism didn't exist before the 1890s, when it stole the name of a pre-Civil War Great Awakening thing to be an utterly political church movement opposed to women's suffrage and organized labor.

This thing has been wealthy business owners weaponizing religion to con the middle class into clinging to them from Day One.

And let us not forget that branch of Evangelicals in the South, who became the modern Baptists. There was a big split between them and the other "old" Evangelicals starting in like the 1830s. Guess what about.

If you are a fundamentalist Evangelical in 2023, you are not the inheritor and defender of God's ancient truth. You're a dipshit who prays at the American Fascism Church.

Conservatives Don't "Hate" the Middle-Class. They Just Like Being Rich More.

How Ronald Reagan (the senile d-lister) screwed us all, and is still screwing us, from beyond the grave. Heads up, The GOP continues his mission to drive the American Middle-Class back into the powerless poverty that FDR lifted them out of. Their leverage? Scaring half-wits with Jesus, abortion, immigrants, racism, misogyny, and LGBTQ-Trans....then using that acquired power to restore the rich people's plutocracy/kakistocracy that ruled this country until they broke it in 1929.

Heads up. Zuckerberg, Mercer, Adelson, Musk, etc, couldn't give a shit less about religion, abortion, gender, gender-identity, immigrants, or race. They're simply using them to create the MAGA and keep them moving. No rich person will EVER have to suffer under a Gilead-like government. Money is power. And you gave it to them. Just underscoring, that's actually YOUR money they're using as a club with which to beat you to death. Because Jesus.
