    Good heavens sir/ma’am/they! We do not speak of understanding conservatives around here! Are you mad!? They’re all simple morons who have no logical reasons for believing as they do.

    To retain your social media score, repeat this mindless chant:

    “The cruelty is the point.”

    The assholes I see here, and formerly on reddit, have never been around conservatives, have never spoken to them, have never travelled the blasted countryside. And no, arguing with dad over Fox news doesn’t count as “experience”.

    There’s much to unpack. Not worth the effort? Repeat the quote above and wonder why they call us “ivory tower liberals”.

    Thank you for some sane input. You can’t see me, but I’m standing on my chair applauding you.

    And for anyone who wishes to try and understand, give this a pass. Still the finest thing I’ve read on the subject:
