[QUOTE="ViaCrucis, post: 77664820, member: 293637"] A follow-up: "But CryptoLutheran, that leaves a lot of questions, not all conservatives are white Evangelicals, and racism can't account for everything"--you're right. That's why it was important to get on the Abortion train in order to bring in coalition with Catholics, who historically didn't really get along well with North American WASPs. But make Abortion a thing, and now we got a moral issue that can get Catholics on board, and that'll help with some Hispanic Americans too--even though "we don't want them here" because "illegals, criminals, they're coming to take our jobs, yadda yadda". Also, don't forget to create moral panics about "The Gays", they're scary and we'll tell you why, it's because they're perverts who are targeting your children. And now, oh man, did you hear that Little Jimmy thinks he's a she? What is this world even coming to? Be scared, be distracted. Here's your moral outrage, and here's your moral outrage, and here's something for you to be afraid of. Everyone gets their own little piece of the scapegoat pie. The Racists don't like black or brown people, so we'll say they're all criminals, and the proof is that they are arrested and charged with more crimes by police (and police are totally all legitimate and there is no problem with policing in America, ignore the protests to the contrary, they're just violent communists anyway, probably). What about Asians? Hey, remember Vietnam? The Korean War? Pearl Harbor? Hey, look, there's China over there being all Communist and scary--oh and wow, CHINA VIRUS ALERT! Oh, it turns out the rich keep getting richer, and the policies are hurting the poor, and there's a homeless crisis created by politicians? Nevermind that, Abortion is legal, and people are on welfare, and why are you mad at the job-creators they're here to help you you lazy and ungrateful welfare bum who just wants hand outs--here you go Mr. Zuckerberg and Mr. Musk, here's another thirty trillion dollars that we just had laying around for you. Ack! The Gays are at it again! Did you hear they wanna get married? Gross. What about my liberties? Why are they taking my rights away and giving them to the queers and perverts? I am outraged! Did you hear that Starbucks didn't put Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer on their cupts this year? Why are the atheists and secularists trying to destroy Christmas? Anyway, let's listen to Mariah Carrey again for the five billionth time, it's still August, that'll show 'em. And on, and so on, and such. Distract, distract, distract. Anyhoo. Happy Star Wars Day, May the Fourth be with you. -CryptoLutheran [/QUOTE]
