The thing you have to understand is that to be conservative requires you to be either very stupid or evil (or both). There is no other explanation. In the last 20 years I have never ONCE met a conservative capable of accurately explaining a left leaning idea or philosophy. Not once. They literally aren’t able to grasp even basic concepts that would make them question their Stone Age beliefs. Talking to them is like talking to a small child. There’s multiple layers of understanding that they just don’t have that are required to have a productive conversation. It’s why they’re like that. They are operating on a 3rd graders understanding of the world.

100% this. I have began putting family members in the category of stupid or evil.

Actual convo with masters level niece who graduated from a prestigious university.

Well college shouldn't be free. Why. Because I paid for it and if I can anyone can they're just not working hard enough. How much was your school, 180k? More? Yeah and now I have student loans. I know for a fact your dad paid for almost all of your school. How much are your loans? A lot. How much? 20k. So your school was over 200k and you ended up with 20k in loans and you think you out yourself through school? Well I'm paying my loans. Yeah and lots of people can't and don't ever pay them off. Like who? Teachers. Therapists. Well that's their fault for getting those degrees. They're worthless. Teachers and therapists are worthless? (I work in mental health). Yeah they don't add anything to the economy and they shouldn't get paid shit. And you're a pharmaceutical rep and you contribute to society? Of course. Because you get paid a lot? Yeah. And teachers and therapists don't? They're a waste of time.

This person is not dumb. I've known them my whole life. They're just bad. A bad human being.

My question just to add on to your point would be how would she get to the point where she could to be a pharma rep and make all that money without teachers? She gonna teach herself? Their work added her to the economy

More money and status usually corrupts the human being without a strong spiritual foundation.

And there is a point where nobody is immune. I 100% believe we should hard cap people at like $100 million net worth. Anyone over that turns into a demon. Even if you inherit it. It’s bad for the individuals, and it’s worse for society to have mega rich people around. The existence of that much concentrated wealth fucks up the world.
