Why does conservatism get this special treatment? People condemn other people for everything from racism or communism to liberalism to feminism all the time; it’s only when it comes to conservatism that condemning people for their politics becomes taboo.
Bending over backwards to pretend that conservatives are reasonable, well meaning people is a major factor in how bad off America has gotten. Over and over again the Democrats and Obama and liberals & moderates of all sorts insist on pretending that conservatives mean well, and surely they can be talked into a compromise…and again and again the conservatives take everything they’ve been offered, give nothing in return and do everything they can to cause harm. Just how bad does conservatism have to get before it becomes OK to condemn it?
