    …they think you’re lying. Or stupid.

    These kinda posts (not from the Lemmy poster, the OP) always feel self-masturbatory: “ugh, why are they against all these clearly good things?!” Rhetorical questions are only helpful if the listener is receptive to the rhetoric, else the questions are just daft.

    Their own base lies to them about what laws will do and how it will affect them, they just think the opposition is worse at it. Anything the opposition says that sounds good is either a lie or frivilous because it also affects “people who don’t need it.” Everything the opposition does that conservatives don’t like is their true goal.
