Not arguing with the take but I wonder if we need more detail instead of blaming “conservatives”. Maybe we could start saying “Some conservatives” more. If we keep exaggerating the divide there is only one place it will lead.
Not specifically. They’re willing to put up with a lot of shit to get just the one or even two issues they care about addressed. Funnily one of them apparently being to “own the libs”, lol. My point is this, look at the way they talk about liberals. When we liberals(?) hear them we think, “What a bunch of idiots, look how wrong they are about our stances on issues”. I consider the way they look at us as being that same contempt.
Just a thought.
I don’t say they’re blameless, only that when attacking a specific issue it’s not helpful to take such a broad swipe. You have to remember we’re dealing with humans here, a very difficult “they” to lay down.

All conservatives support this because they vote for the party that wants this. If they didn’t, then they would not be conservatives.

If anyone still labels themselves conservative and vote conservative, they are not blameless
