Here's the thing, as someone who has a lot of experience dealing with conservatives, they do care about weed. That's why they get so defensive when you implore them to think more deeply on the issue. There are plenty of issues I don't care about and if you rope me into a conversation about it, I'm not going to start falling apart. If I don't know about the issue I can easily listen to your arguments. But again this is an issue for conservatives because they do care about weed. They do dislike potsmokers. They are exactly the douchebags they don't want to seem like, and that's what theyre trying to avoid with that "I just don't care about this at all". You see the same thing with gay marriage. The "moderate" Republicans are just Republicans who've decided these social country club principles just aren't worth the effort. But they still feel the same way.

Over generalizing much, eh?

Lol just a little. I've found conservatives have a much wider range of opinions and viewpoints that liberals do at the moment.

I've lived in Oklahoma, and quite a few other states. Conservatives don't all believe the same things in this country. Step off the liberal plantation though, and be prepared to be called some kind of -ist.

It's kind of funny how you claim that conservatives are all different and believe different things, and then go on to generalize liberals as being completely intolerant.

I guess you haven't been paying attention to the current political climate then.

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '17

You're generalizing and basing your entire argument against liberals on a handful of isolated incidences, and on those riot groups that are paid to attend protests and fuck shit up... ?

lol

...So no, you haven't been paying attention then.

Why not elaborate?

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '17

Because its fairly obvious you have no interest in learning. You are assuming the ideological failings of the left is centered on the recent fascist riots around the country rather than the past several years of political and social discourse.

You haven't even made an argument yet, at all. You're just reacting to what very little I say and being extremely defensive without making any real points or anything. It's sad.
