Why do we allow them to be called conservatives?

"Conservative" has always meant cautious and resistant to change.

"Conservative" is not an adjective that applies to today's Republican Party.

They are radicals with radical ideas that want to radically change America.

They want to kill labor unions, and end collective bargaining rights.

They want a system that favors money and force over ideas.

Socially, they want their own minority rule, without regard to minority rights.

If you are a woman, they want control of your uterus.

They want control of your media. They want to tell you what you can watch, and what you can listen to.

They seek to control your elections, and the machines you vote on.

They seek to redistrict your states to rig elections.

They seek to further rig the tax code, to further the redistribution of wealth upward.

The Republicans are the furtherest things from conservatives. They are dangerous right-wing radicals that want to remake America into a third-world dystopia, which will envy the darkest parts of Africa for their freedom.

They are simply evil.

We must make it impossible for the media to keep calling them conservative. They are not in any way conservative. They are radicals. Freedom-hating radicals. Treasonous turncoats. And they must be stopped.

Republicans are not conservatives. AT ALL.
