Never really understood the whole conservative thing until I found my guardian in college going off at the freeloaders and leeches of society in a car trip back to their house. They just don't see people outside of their clan as humans, and it's very disappointing to hear as a bushy tailed freshman at the time.

I don't like strawman arguments even when I agree with them, because they're cringe and silly.

Pretty hypocritical to talk about having empathy and then turn around and fling an ableist slur at people you dislike.

You likely have no empathy for these r...

Not true. I completely understand how they are the way they are, and I feel horrible for them. It's a terrible existence to hate all the time and be brainwashed and manipulated.

But ultimately you can't help people who don't want to be helped, so you spend your time helping those who do.

You likely have no empathy for these retards

Ah, okay, OP doesn't care about the mentally disabled.

Ah yes, tell me more about true empathy, person who thinks ableist slurs are okay if they're used on the right people.

Conservatism, boiled down to its core belief, to its very heart, is simply the belief that a certain small group (usually white, afluent, monocultural, with highly homogeneous backgrounds) has the right to inflict violence on everyone else.

'no they just want to go back to how things were and they're slow to adapt'

Buddy. Friend. Pal. Mate. Companion. They're literally still fuming about the French Revolution and the Paris Commune challenging the divine authority of kings. They want to make it so you don't have any power and they have all of it.

No seriously. It's Edmund Burke and his whole shtick. Everything else is just dress-up really. Caring about the rights of women and everything just to pit one group against the next. They'll play the political game but really it's just they're yearning to return to hunting people for sport as the nobles they take themselves for.

Also, it's so fucking easy to not be ableist and yet here you are doing it anyway, OP. Shameful really.

Kids: "So you care about us?"

Conservatives: "Shut up you little kid, you have the duty to take care of your parents even if they're awful to you, and to learn a lot in school!"

Young adults: "So we can get college degrees?"

Conservatives: "No you stupid idiot, even if you graduate with top grades, you have to go to learn trades instead, our donors have finally automated the job of intellectuals!"

Workers: "So you're pro-worker? Will the AI mean less work for us?"

Conservatives: "No you lazy idiot, you will have to work like in China's 996 system, all while we gut the remaining job security under you!"

It's almost as if their entire ideology is inconsistent and based around hate of another group. I wonder if that makes them easy to manipulate? (Rhetorical)

I work with a bunch of people who think this way. The even crazier thing is that half of them are also Mormon and the other half is Mexican.

So you don't see mental disabilities as shameful?

Wrong! Fuck retards!

That's OP

Feels kind of like the Goomba fallacy. But sure, there are definitely people like this holding similar opinions, however it is usually more nuanced than how it is presented here.

I have autistic hyper empathy and physically feel it, I can empathize with them, but I hate them.

Slurs fucking suuuck!

America, FUCK YEAH!

IT IS NOT THE CONSERVATIVES, it is the OLIGARCHY MEDIA, they are after all of us, the CONSERVATIVES are just DUMBER, protect your fellow conservative.

None of these fights would exist despite Democrats, and yet. . .

Perfectly outlines the divide and conquer strategy.

A lot of homeless people can't work. But, for those who can, it's hard to find a job when you haven't been able to shower for a week, have no money to purchase nice clothing for interviews (let alone no where to keep these nice clothes), and don't have an address which is often needed to secure either a job or benefits.

I have been homeless this year, and was lucky enough to get into a housing program. But my finances are still fucked, and I can't work because of serious mental and physical disabilities. It's a trap that is so difficult to get out of, and I'm very worried that I'll be homeless again in a few years.

Imagine the toll this takes on a person, then add that this population is hated, derided, and repeatedly victimized by both the general population and the government/police. Imagine struggling with mental issues, and having all that you've managed to collect stolen from you every other week. Imagine having physical disabilities and being unable to run away from assaults. Imagine all of the above with the additional burdens of being a woman, a POC, and/or LGBTQ+.

Now think about how rough the job market is for people who have stable housing, and who meet the qualifications of a job, and for those who wouldn't be a "DEI" hire in the age of "anti-woke".

Empathy isn't a weakness, it literally only means that you understand someone else's plot in life. Being able to understand situations like or unlike your own is a strength, and it's necessary to promote societal change. And that is exactly why conservatives hate it

Empathy is the greatest sign of strength.

It's almost like conservatives are truly, deeply evil and building concentration camps to kill vulnerable people is completely on-brand for them.

Through this rhetoric they also conveniently make people forget about homeless refugees, immigrant women, lesbians, and the mukhannathun.

Conservatives: "Why do none of you damn snowflakes care about ME?!!"

true but also maybe a little goomba fallacy

Trying to have a conversation with someone who thinks words are a competition. Trying to shake hands with someone who tries to arm wrestle you.

I think you would struggle to find a conservative that hates Muslim people because of what someone did in Orlando or hates gay people because they are pedophiles. They hate them because they were told to by right wing media, that's it. Pretending there's some logic behind it is pure fantasy.

So everyone knows who’s downvoting this:

I had a recent train of thought like this not long ago when Talarico affirmed MAGA talking points about trans athletes in women's sports.

The number of trans athletes active in the US is about ten. The number of sports injuries involving trans athletes is less than that.

Bit this raises a question about the safety of women's sports, or all sports, for that matter. Injuries are ubiquitous in sports, all cis-on-cis, with exceptions fewer than a rounding error.

And then that raises the concern of full-contact gridiron football, which is a TBI machine from varsity, through college, to professional. If we're worried about sports injuries, do we stop caring when it might cut into billionaire profits?

I'm still sore with Talarico about it, but I'm not in Texas.

Why so true.

Libs still not giving a fuck about muslims.

It's hard to be a rapist, murderer, pillager, colonizer society and have a heart and humanity. It's one or the other, basically, but being a monster (and influencing the cattle to become predators) can be very profitable!

To preface, I agree 100%

But a paragraph of text strawmen isn't really a meme :/

Wait it ended to soon. Does that mean they like jobs?

So you care about workers?

No fuck off with that socialist shit

Almost like conservatives are selfish sadists.
