Liberals versus Leftists

[Amarok]

Meanwhile, conservatives:

Conservatives: Black Lives don't matter
Conservative: Capitalism is the only good thing in the world, and there should be zero regulation because the rich and powerful are the only ones that matter
Conservative: Love of country is required
Conservative: America is the land of opportunity, and if you aren't rich you are just LAZY
Conservative: Free speech is great, unless you're saying Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas.  Or want to open a mosque.  Or you know the President is a fucking idiot.
Conservative: We have absolutely nothing to learn from other nations, because America was at it's best in the 1920's when women and blacks couldn't vote and corporations could dick people over all they like without pesky unions

I'm a conservative and don't believe one of those statements. Thanks for the blanket condemnation.

We can play the simplistic straw man game too. 

Conservatives- Institutional and cultural racism doesn't exist  anymore and is not cause of minority  suffering . Minorities are lazy and culturally inferior and thus to blame for their struggles . And the majority white leadership of this country only had the best intentions for minorities. Now listen to my moaning about reverse racism and white persecution.   

Conservatives - Capitalism is god and rich people  are saints  who will always do what's in the public good. And thus should not be regulated or taxed  or they will extort the economy . 

Conservative -Forced rituals and veneration of objects and historical figures is required . And don't you dare question it or you hate the troops . 

Conservatives - Rich people did it all themselves without benefiting from a safe stable society . And if your not rich it's your fault 

Conservative - Free speech until you give Macbeth a modern twist . Call the bible a myth . Won't write Trump on a coffee cup . etc 

Conservatives - All other nations owe us gratitude for acting on our economic and military interests .And any criticism of America will be met with hostility . But were free to bash everyone else .
