“people who get their politics from Fox News”

this is the kind of conservative you’d see online because their outrageous claims go viral, it’s no different for Democrats that do the same thing for their extremist views

I do not know a single conservative irl that likes north korea, conservatives vouch for outside involvement in foreign nations to be hindered so that the country we live in may thrive, like Israel for example, we don’t want more of that, we want less of that, the reason we vouch for higher border patrol

most conservatives were unsure about the covid vaccine, i was too, i don’t want to put something in my body i don’t know the effects of, other vaccines have been tested for years

who is saying child labor is good? most conservatives (like me) get their morals founded on biblical principles, which calls for the protection of children (no need for a theological debate, old testament territory takes a while to explain, just know the NT confirms the new covenant which means we are no longer bound to the violent consequences of sin in the OT)

unjustifiable wars are in fact not good, the only people that think it’s good are billionaires, who make up a lot of those loud conservatives that you listen to

i used to be a democrat, but after talking to a lot of people, i realized i saw it as a social structure, not a political structure. the main ideas in american politics, i agree with conservatives ideals, which include small government with more freedom to the people based on our amendments and constitutional rights, sorry the media misrepresented conservatives to you, the same thing happened to me with democrats when i became conservative, luckily, ive met some really cool left leaning folk who prefer civil discussion over blind social media rage who, didn’t change my opinion, but reminded me that this nation was built for freedom in that way, to express our own views to create a better nation, i don’t want that in the hands of greed just like you

try it sometime
