Conservatives are living parodies of humans.

There's nothing inside of them. Just a thin outer shell comprised of hate and ignorance that's SUPER fragile.

I once saw a comment from a self-labeled 'Christian conservative' that was something to the tune of: "We need to stop taking the religion out of everything, because otherwise what's to stop people from raping and stealing and killing and blah blah."

It was then that I first had the horrifying revelation that this person (and many others, I'm sure) is at least quite strongly implying that without the threat of hell they wouldn't have any reason to NOT do any of those things.

Anybody who believes in either side is and that's why you're fucked.

There's a reason ''true believer'' is a pejorative, or at least cautionary, description in politics. Belief is not the way to oporate and get results. If you can't accept getting 60% of what you want out of legislation along with the other two branches of goverment, you'll never get 1% of what you want.
