    I think we’re not disagreeing but just using “normal” in different senses. I mean “not unusual” (half of the population leans conservative) while you mean something like “well adjusted” or “healthy”.

      Fair enough. I do not see hate-based ideologies as “normal”. Nearly every act of racism, xenophobia, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, or other bigotry committed in history has been committed by conservatives.

      When we treat bigots as normal members of society, we normalize bigotry. They are not normal. They are harmful. There is simply no place in a modern society for conservatism.
