Wow. So, so many things wrong here.
- This would be a blatant first amendment violation, along with a violation of several other rights centered around non-discrimination.
- The GOP really don't give a flying shit any more about the Constitution, do they?
- Apparently, "censoring conservative viewpoints" (known to normal people as "not being racist and bigoted) is bad, but literally trying to express liberal viewpoints is somehow "indoctrination" and should be a criminal offense. Yeah, I know. They wear the hypocrisy as a badge of honor and campaign on it.
You have been permanently banned from c/Conservative.
Damn, banned so hard they were banned twice
Lol. Fixed. Thank you. You shall be spared when c/Conservative conquers and enslaves the Lemmy communities around it.
On the bright side, it's causing all the people who want to move to a Conservative dystopia to move to Florida instead of Texas, which means that if Texans turned out to vote, we might finally see that purple state everyone talks about.
Apparently, there's a lot of people who like performative politics instead of actual policy that helps them.
Sorry friend. I gave up and moved out of Texas this year.
I don't blame you. Making it a terrible place to live is kind of the end goal of Republicans.
It's cool, the rest of us will keep trying to vote out these assholes the best we can.
- yes, shocking no one
- They never did
- Racists actually believe that some people are "below" them and so they don't really understand what "racism" or "bigotry" means. They feel they have a right to force others into their "rightful place" below them in their imaginary hierarchy. They believe they have a right to force people to conform. They refuse to empathize with those they loathe and so their actions are borne out of malice and cruelty.
Some days when I am really pessimistic, I fantasize about all these delusional people suffering immensely under a regime they got into power themselves. Then I remember I am not an inhumane dumbass like them and go about my day.
I fantasize about doing the oppression to them, because I'm a jaded asshole.
