I definitely lean conservative and I am the first to admit this is a clown show. Although I am very far from MAGA, I will say that. I did not vote for this shit lmao. There is nothing “conservative” about this administration.
According to republicans, political violence is bad unless trump calls for the execution of people who disagree with him

What exactly are conservatives trying to conserve?

Conservative in the sense of the government staying out of your way and not involved in fucking everything. The only thing they’ve done decently is not tax us out the ass. Everything else (ICE, National Guard, etc) is the antithesis of that. That and keeping America to a certain standard. Keeping the American dream and American idealism alive. Right now, our education system is terrible and everything is too expensive because they keep spending. We are so fucked if we don’t turn things around.

But mostly, the American way of life. Giving everyone a chance to make it. Right now, that’s not the case. Everyone is trying to do the “right thing” that their parents did (go to school and get a good job), now kids our age graduate with monstrous debt and when they apply for jobs they basically get told to go fuck themselves. Then these clowns in charge are shocked that people our age want socialism because they got absolutely nothing that was promised to them lmao.

Yeah. What is currently being paraded is something entirely different than conservatism and it makes me sick. These fuckers want to go back to the 50s and don’t realize those days are looooooong gone.

So u mostly wanna conserve the idea of “The American Dream” where everyone has equal opportunity, owns a home, has a family, and can afford everything they need and some?

Small correction: they are taxing us out the ass, that’s what the tariffs are. The only ones with significant tax cuts are the wealthy
