      As a moderate conservative, I believe in ownership and democracy. Therefore the people who work at a company should own it and have an equal vote in how it is run.

        As a moderate conservative, I believe in conserving natural, finite resources like oil and gas. I believe in making large investments into clean and renewable energy for all, so we can conserve the natural beauty of our land, just like God intended.

      I’m a far right fringe militia extremist who was there on J6 (but I did not go inside) and I’d do it all again to shift the tax burden to those most able to pay it.

    The Window keeps moving for one simple reason.

    The GOPs vote in every election. They may hate the candidate but if they’ve gotten the Party’s endorsement they’ll vote.

    The Left keeps waiting for the perfect candidate to come along…

      “the Republicans vote in every election” said the foaming Democrat as the Gestapo took them away to the camps.

      your country is literally going through a coup and all you can think about is this fetishistic image of saving your country through electoral reform. I’d be laughing if I wasn’t so disturbed.

        I’m always open to learning.

        Why don’t you explain in detail how you personally mustered a large swath of the population to follow you.

    I’ve been doing that for years. I’ve been claiming to be a conservative and supporting things like universal healthcare. I even give it capitalist flair by saying that ensuring everyone has more money means I can then take that money by selling them shit they don’t need. How the hell am I supposed to sell my useless crap if everyone’s spending their money on rent?!

    Ditto with stuff like housing the unhoused. I don’t want filthy drug addicts strewn about the streets taking up my park benches and constantly asking me for ‘bus money’! Get them houses so I don’t have to see them anymore! Also god I hate kids, especially when they’re just hanging around on the street being annoying and intimidating. Build some youth centres so they have somewhere to go and get them away from me!

    Altruism through selfishness etc etc etc.

      Conservatives should be the biggest supporters of the LGBTQIA+ community due to their record low use of abortion services.

        It was never about being “pro life” with them, it was always about control over women’s bodies. The pro life thing is just an excuse. If you need proof then look at how they treat people after they’re no longer in utero.

      That’s a great start! I’m curious how you reconcile that with other right wing views like free-market capitalism, smaller government, and deregulation? Also curious about those who either temporarily or permanently can’t work.

        Well obviously smaller government needs to get its ass out of people’s private health decisions and bedrooms, and stop helping other countries invade their neighbors or abuse their populace. Big waste of money! Then it should pull back funds from enforcing ridiculous outdated regulations like zoning and trespassing that restrict the American freedom to live where you want. Also, churches should participate in free-market capitalism like every other business, openly showing their books and chipping in exactly the same percentage of taxes, as should businesses of all sizes, with a clear and simple tax code. Loopholes are sneaky communist bullshit! And we need to get the tax brackets back to Reagan levels!
