Ketchup With Those Fries? Sure—as Long as It’s Anti-Woke: Those Bud Light protests just scratched the surface. The right wing is constructing an entire parallel economy, from coffee to banks

Can we just stop having conservatives? They're stupid hateful people.

Let me know a point in human history when Conservatives were not the worst of humanity?

I mean, WW2, a Conservative British Prime Minister lead the charge against a Nazi lead axis of evil. It's pretty safe to say the Tories weren't the worst party in that situation.

WWII started out as the Conservative World War to see who was the more extreme Conservative. The United States showed up with a Liberal and of course, Russia was Communist.

Hey now, believe it or not there also also stupid hateful people who don't identify as conservative and I would like to get rid of them too, please

Can we cool it with the played out hexbear joke every single time the GOP is mentioned?

I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with Conservatives. It gives a little breathing time between progress for people to get used to change. I think the problem is Regressives brand themselves as Conservatives. Regressive policies are the real problem.

I think there's room for both "We should throw out everything and build anew" and "We should reform the current system to remove injustice and inefficiency." But I guess similar to what you said, we have a lot of people who want neither of those. They want to hurt their outgroups (typically women and minorities).
