    I keep saying I think no cons should be allowed to hold any office, and this is pretty much why. Despite all their rhetoric about “patriotism”, and “freedom” and “but mah Constitution”, they don’t really care about any of that. They don’t want freedom and they don’t respect rule of law - except to have freedom only for themselves and those they deem worthy.

    They are elitist to the core, but then declare ideas related to doing anything about climate change (and thus disrupt assumptions about fossil fuel usage and the Standard American Diet) as “elitist”. They twist meanings of words to mean entirely different things from what normal Americans understand those terms to mean.
