I constantly see angry mobs of people decrying “woke”, “critical race theory”, ““grooming”, and whatever other nonsense they made up this week. They march around with guns, constantly appending lib as a prefix to any word they can use to denigrate. They actively plot violence and spew hatred in the open.

You never see the inverse. There is no ConservativesofTiktok getting churches harassed into shutting down for the day or calling in threats. You don’t see cringey boomer memes on the left. And whenever I openly express those feelings, try to create that sentiment; I get shut down. Noone agrees, I’m often shamed and muted. I just don’t understand why that parity exists, it’s extremely isolating to feel so alone in this

    This is the broadest stroke I can make of it:

    Conservatives decisions are based on instincts and lower brain functions like fear and hatred.

    Liberals decisions are based on marginal benefit and rational decision making based on a combination of large and small scale unbiased data and historical outcomes.

    There are tons of outliers and vocal minorities that break the rule, but basically a conservative thinks a liberal should face eternal punishment, while a liberal thinks they’re not fit to judge a conservative.

      Liberals have their own idiotic biases and foolishness. Biases and foolishness that have led to the “disappearing” of many LGBTQ+ activists in China, incidentally, which is why so many such groups in China are distancing themselves from their western counterparts.

            I’ve never insulted the act of sucking cock, nor even assumed your gender. The insult that went unnoticed was that I called you a sub for a dictator, lmao.

            Didn’t Xi Jinping literally start shutting down LGBT centers and clubs almost a decade ago? He has a by definition anti-LGBT policy stance across all of China.
