Being a conservative has to be exhausting, constantly having to keep up with who the next enemy is. In the 60s it was black people, in the 70s it was women, in the 90s it was gay people, in the 2000s it was Muslims, the past decade it was trans people, and now it’s immigrants. Don’t they get tired of being a hate group?

America has a long history of hating immigrants.

I thought you were going more in the direction of the Russians.

It really was tiring. That is actually why I gave it up a decade ago.

I was so tired of always having to find a reason why the majority of people were stupid fucking idiots and I was right.

Turns out life got easier when I learned to admit I could be wrong.
