Being “pushed right” is probably a misnomer in most cases. Take my example: in the 90s I was listening to Tom Shanklin parodies, by the 10’s I’m listening to Sam Harris podcasts. All things equal, that’s a wild leftward swing, except by the time I reached Harris, he’s alt-right? ➡️➡️➡️ “Conservatives” have lost the distinction b/w “should not” and “must not.” This is why their “principles” are confused. One shouldn’t use vulgar language. At the same time, one mustn’t allow speech to be stifled simply because it’s vulgar. TruCons think both are “must nots.” ➡️➡️➡️ I was duped by the late-70s/early-80s as a child. They actually had me believing that everyone could get along and that skin color didn't matter. ➡️➡️➡️ I am convinced you can’t stereotype anyone into being something they’re not. ➡️➡️➡️ Nobody talks about the fact that cheese wheels are already cakes. ➡️➡️➡️ The next Bond should be Peter Dinklage. ➡️➡️➡️ Where are you from? Nebraska. Where’s your accent? 😑
