Apparently all the people who think all people should be quarantined unless they are protesting the police are conservatives. All the people who think it is fine to discriminate against asians and whites in college admissions are conservatives. People who want the cops who shot Breaonna Taylor arrested are conservatives. The people who think they diversity is great as long as all people think the same are conservatives.

Liberals love to brag about how only conservatives are intolerant and how much they hate conservatives. Self awareness is apparently not a liberal virtue.
