      It isn’t even “Ate my face” so much as folks who were sold a bill of goods by conservative propagandists

      • Family Values!
      • Christian schools!
      • No crime!
      • Patriotic Unity!
      • Entrepreneurship and an Honest Work Ethic!

      only to get there and discover

      • Spousal Abuse! Child Abuse! Rape! Intense Misogyny!
      • What kind of nerd needs an education? Get a job you stupid kids!
      • Lawlessness!
      • Deep misanthropy wrapped in the American Flag!
      • Scams! Price gouging! Poverty!

      Turns out a liberal is just a conservative who has been mugged by reality.

        Or some conservatives are just liberals that genuinely don’t hear the dogwhistles.

        I was wondering why I never saw it trending. Seems like we should see it everyday on Lemmy.
