39. I swear to God, the so-called "Conservative" half of this country...

Needs De-Programming before it can deal with reality again.

Wealthy Conservatives (the top 2-3%) are just being greedy and pushing for their own self-interest.

But most Conservative voters in America are not rich, and obviously
vote with their pancreas, or gonads, or something other than their frontal lobes.

Non-rich Conservatives struggle with reality and grasping concepts like cause-and-effect,
and devote themselves to stupid, cruel ideas, just like cultists.

IMO, non-wealthy Conservatives=Cult members

How does America de-program 100-million people?
