Just a heads up: If you get shitty or mean in these comments I’ll remove them. Go be an asshole somewhere else. 

The average conservative white male American is the picture of a dog drinking a cup of coffee sitting in a burning house saying ‘This is fine.’ And it is for them. They don’t care if they die, so long as the people they hate go with them.

Conservatism is the opposite of progressiveness. To understand these are polar ends of the same spectrum.
