The 25 conservatives actually worth following on Twitter Yes, they exist
Salon ^ | October 14, 2017 | Taylor Link

Liberals in shock over the the 2016 election were prescribed a heavy dose of reality. "Get out of your bubble," the doctors note illegibly read. It was a hard truth for the American left. They found out the U.S. was not as progressive as originally thought. Their steady diet of MSNBC and left-wing op-eds only reinforced biases and preconceived beliefs. The country's actual, collective tilt wholly evaded them.

The left always tries to define the debate into an “Heads we win, Tails you lose” situation.

That is what this is.

Read *our* “leftist approved” “conservatives”. (and only them!)

This is hilarious. Let's try to understand conservative viewpoints by following people on Twitter who aren't actually conservative. Bonus points if they deliver "fierce takedowns" of Trump.

This is why Trump will win re-election in 2020. The Democratic establishment is incapable of learning.

Neither is the Republican establishment, but that's a different problem.

“One recommended solution: Search out opposing points of view. Turn on Fox News every once in a while; follow more conservative voices on Twitter . . .”

Kilgore Trout: Trump treats a couple guys quietly kneeling as more of a life & death crisis than he treats an actual life & death crisis in Puerto Rico

Tim Carlson: If ‘conservatism’ now means denigrating the acts of brave African Americans fighting for equality, then I’m no longer a conservative. Period

Richard W. Painter: In front of a foreign head of state, our President just said that the First Amendment is disgusting. He has to go.

Jennifer Rubin: We are now risking internal conflict because pres is irrational child. This is why he has to go

Ben Howe: I mean honestly, do you really think Weinstein is that different from Trump when alone with a young attractive woman? Same guy.

Brandt: The President is a fascist.

I could go on, but the entire list of 25 “conservatives” on Twitter is represented by quotes that are pro-socialist, in favor of big government, support kneeling, anti-Trump, and in no way provide the diversity of viewpoints that should have been the whole point of liberals listening to and reading the conservative perspective. With these 25, they will remain just as clueless as they are now. I’m okay with that.

Would a conservative socialst translate as a fundamentalist communist?

The Left loves telling us that Islamic theocratic rule is conservative and if you look at the USSR they banned rock and roll and porn so were they ‘conservative’?

According to Salon, the only “conservatives” worth following are far left wing “conservatives” who hate Trump as much as they do.

According to Salon, the only "conservatives" worth following are the Eunuchs allowed to speak on or write for the MSM.

"They found out the U.S. was not as progressive as originally thought they wanted the corrupt media to make everybody think."
