Dusty Farr says “it’s uplifting when you can actually accept the way things are, and you’re not carrying that unfounded hate and unfounded disgust."
Better late than never! 🥳
You're viewing a single thread.
“Uplifting news” that once again hilights the absolutely infuriating conservative psychology of “I give absolutely zero fucks about this topic until and unless it affects me personally”.
I am glad the dude changed his ways, don’t get me wrong, but fuck me if it isn’t depressing to consider that this behavior pattern is absolute cancer, and really hard to work constructively with on a societal scale.

Technically we all may possess this, with some topic, somewhere in our lives
Conservatives just picked a bunch that fucking suck for others lol.
Like, I hate mayo. I bet someone really skilled could change my mind, but I'm not gonna fucking try. Fuck Mayo
19 3 ReplyWith the difference being that you don't go around bullying people who do eat mayo, and you don't try to ban people from eating mayo.
Or well, actually, maybe you do, I wouldn't know.

I agree, but I think it's more than just not liking something. There's an active component to it, like if through your hatred of mayo you were trying to ban its use on sandwiches and in sauces.

They kept telling people to wake up... so people finally started to... now that's a threat to their existence.

conservatives on average have a higher disgust response and think themselves more exceptional than others.
I would say they do this more than non-conservatives because they are motivated by disgust rather than ideals or empathy.

"Someone changed and I'm still angry for how he used to think!"
Grow the fuck up. Nothing said before the "but" is important because your real thoughts and feelings come after the virtue signalling.
