In real life, the “Right” side is totally preposterous.
There’s nothing “conservative” about endless aggression and militancy, for example, quite the opposite. It’s a massive waste of people, money and resources.
It’s also self-contradictory and illogical to demand that the government stay out of society and social lives while simultaneously expecting the government to micromanage people’s sex lives, relationships and drug usage.
They should replace the label “Right” with “Cognitive Dissonance.”
Dangit. Sorry for the repost. As you were.
