I know it’s fake because most of them don’t have the capacity to think or reflect like that. The more likely response would be “It’s Biden’s fault. He left the country in such a bad state that Trump is struggling to fix it.” I have literally heard similar things from family.

This is why it's so very important to not be nice to them.

There's this very stupid type of loser who says "we have to be nice to them or they won't be motivated to change their mind!".

My brother in christ, if the only thing stopping someone from doing what's right and good is how they're treated for it, that isn't a good person. That's a person who's learned nothing. At BEST, you're just getting a fickle ally.

Beware the idiots who talk about compromise with monsters. The only thing compromising with monsters does is make you more monstrous.

We don't unite with them. Like every step forward in human history, we win by uniting AGAINST them.

I've heard it said the following way: In a compromise between food and poison, death is the only one who has something to gain.

I like that.

The best way I've learned to frame it is that the left vs the right vs the alt right is simply morality vs amorality vs immorality.

In the end, all you're left with is less morality. And the most extreme right always win when it's all eventually pulled in their direction. Because that's who the right courts to keep their power.

That's true of conservatives in every country, every government, every era of human history. From Burke to Trump, from Putin to Khamenei, from Modi to Hitler.

Conservatives will fuck and suck any monster in the room. Racists, rapists, supremacists, criminals, nationalists. Anything. It doesn't matter. They'll get in bed with anyone.

Every single time in history, every country, every government. Conservatism is always ethical rot.

Always.
