    1. Everytime I’ve seen a conservative say that, it just means they hope somebody else will do all the tough “Alpha male” bullshit for them.

      They want to act tough but they’re too lazy and cowardly to actually practice what they preach.

    2. The Eisenhower administration was moderate. More important, they competed within the rules and the constitutional framework.

    3. In fairness, they also call themselves “the silent majority” even though I’ve yet to observe one who has the capacity to shut the fuck up for any period of time at all.

      Then they accuse us of being violent. They’ve been making these jokes for years. They celebrated bumper stickers depicting Harris and Biden being kidnapped, but cannot comprehend how that would lead to more violence against them. And this isn’t me condoning violence. But, you don’t use threats and expect people to be happy with you and ready to be friends. You only invite more violence.

    5. They have not been “moderate” in decades.

      But in general so many of them seem to think that the far-right stood still while the left went radically leftward.

      The vast majority of conservatives are moderate until pushed too far. Which is about the only Liberals are good at, pushing too far.

      NO conservatives take “fascist” seriously. Mostly just laugh at the hypocrisy and lack of awareness.

      It is a call to arms for restoration of spiritual battle against evil. Not to take up arms against fellow man. You know if you know.

      Conservatives have been pushing toward fascism for a century. That said, actually being fascist want viable until the last 10 years. We romanticize Republicans like McCain and Romney even though they ultimately facilitated and capitulated because they at least operated within the liberal guardrails.

      The modern right is antithetical to a few society, and they are not beholden to norms at all.

    9. Piers Morgan is the worst at this. Grades Trump on a curve and blasts anyone who calls him out on his shit.

    10. “The storm whispers to the warrior”…

      Like, dude, just admit you’ve never seen a clitoris.

    11. The funniest part is that they voice this stuff like it’s the slight that was one too many and pretty much anyone normally living life is like “pardon me?”

    12. And cry like babies when: corporate logo is updated.
      When the words of the deceased are quoted verbatim.
      When comedian comedians.
      Etc etc.

    13. Cry like babies and then create an app that tracks all the people that wont worship their dead social media guy. We all knew Republicans leaned towards authoritarianism but I didnt expect them to cannon ball into the pool when we got close.

    14. John McCain was one of the last ones, I don’t even know that I would call him moderate he just wasn’t a total fuckin ass like they all turned out to be.
