MODERATORS
They don't care. All they care about is their in-group is strong and the out-group is punished. They're shitty people.
I saw a guy today with two bumper stickers. One said "Trump" the other said "I love the constitution". I wonder what he would say about this?
Nonsense. He would say nonsense. Because they don't care. They care as much about sounding serious as they do about other people.
As long as there's some undertone of solid racism in the administration, they won't care. That's all this has ever really been about.
I'm sure he'd be very upset if he could read.
They don't really love The Constitution. They only like the first two.
Only when it benefits them, however.
They think free speech means no one is allowed to disagree with them. Otherwise they say their right to free speech is being violated.
"Help! I'm being disagreed with! Arrest then for violating my freedom of speech!"
This is exactly how Conservatives think.
