Why have conservatives become such mean spirited bigots?

[Anonymous]

Really? Who posts this about people embracing their kids?

The hatred emanating from conservatives is all encompassing.

You think Lee Atwater or William Buckley were nice?

Atwater changed when he was dying from a brain tumor.

You look at that photo and probably see two men happily enjoying their newborn babies. To you, it represents something beautiful.

To the MAGA mind, however that is an affront to traditional values. Those men obviously have not given birth so why are they appropriating this time-honored tradition of new mothers posing with their newborns? They are not just tarnishing this sacred moment, they are rubbing it in the faces of the virtuous. They may as well be peeing on a crucifix. They are forcing their violation of norms down the throats of everyone who values truth, justice, and the American way, and the MAGAs are not going to take it anymore. These two soy boys can take their virtue signaling elsewhere!

In Jesse's mind, he is not being mean, but reacting understandably to a provocation. Or, more accurately, Jesse probably couldn't care less, but he thinks this is what his fans expect.

Republicans are just completely unhinged these days. I mean, WTF is this?



I'm honestly starting to wonder if conservatism is a form of mental illness.

I feel so bad for his daughters.

Cruelty has become part of their brand. It’s disgusting. They have no actual policies so they just create culture wars that are aimed at hurting anyone who isn’t a white, upper middle class/wealthy straight male.

Cruz is being rational in his situation. I keep saying this, but Republicans have nothing to run for, they can only run against. They have to have enemies, they have to believe they are the victims. If Cruz wants to get reelected, he has to make sure his constituents are afraid of their own shadows. You might think that in the middle of the Texas desert you might be safe, but you never know when an airliner flown by a transgender pilot might crash into you.

He didn’t. He said he was born again, but never cracked his bible.

Hey, you democrats are all about science.

Let's talk about pilots or air traffic controllers of anyone else that has many lives depending on them...

What is the suicide rate of transgenders vs. those that aren't?

Transgenders isn’t a word. Trans/transgender are adjectives. Transgender man, trans woman. You’re dehumanizing people by turning adjectives into nouns. That’s like calling a group of overweight women “fats” or calling black people “blacks”. But you probably already knew that.

consider the possibility that of the people whose opinions you see online in the news, who are a vanishingly small percent of the population to begin with, the majority of them on both left and right and attention hounds with personality disorders

I would ignore them all and focus on people you know IRL

Interesting argument. You make a group of people's lives so miserable that they commit suicide in large numbers and then you justify making them even more miserable because they commit suicide in large numbers. This Republican science!
