do nice conservatives exist?

submitted 2 weeks ago by

all the ones i know are either homophobic AND racist, for example, or one or the other. if they aren’t racist, they hate gays and if they aren’t homophobic, they hate people of color.

that’s the only people i know of. i knew a bi girl who was/is conservative but she doesn’t talk much about politics so idk what she is now. anyway, she loved trump and HATED immigrants of any kind but she wasn’t at all homophobic.

meanwhile, my ex-gf called gays the “alphabet community” said she was one of the good sapphic girls and said that latinos and haitians are animals who eat dogs and they’re evil, coming to kill all the americans. she’s also blasian so idk how she’s so racist, her grandma was an immigrant from vietnam.

Modern Conservatism’s best face was William Buckley Jr.

He was against the Civil rights movement because he thought that States’ Rights were more important than human rights.
