[Ethan Clive Osgoode]

Do you seriously still labor under the delusion that conservatives on FR don’t fully understand you’re a closet liberal that might as well be dressed in a colorful clown outfit, with large orange curly hair under a bright purple derby, with giant yellow floppy shoes, a red on white polka dot blazer, green highwater pants with a giant sunflower on your lapel that in the center in neon lights flashes...

Indeed, how exactly do advocates of godless, souless ideologies fit into conservatism? Since when is "man has no soul" a conservative point of view? "Man has no soul" and "man is a meat-byproduct of random accidents" are the ideological bases for eugenics and various forms of inhuman totalitarianism -- the reduction of human beings to organic machines or beasts of burden with no intrinsic worth. It must be some kind of sick joke to call this "conservative". You might as well call Communism conservative. Like the cartoon?

They have no shame. It’s not so much that they’re just that disconnected as they’re the 5th column of FR.
