I totally disagree.
The left is a political beast. They see politics as a means to control, power and, finally, meaning for their lives. To them, the entire world is politics and they have very much to gain by adapting this worldview.
Conservatives are fundamentally different - one, they are individuals who view involvement in politics as a necessary evil as they seek to prevent the statists from encroaching further into their personal lives. Two, they are fundamentally realists - willingly enternalizing what they can plainly see is a lie is incompatible with their worldview.
Where a conservative politician be attacked I would surely be inclined to make some initial assumptions based upon my political bent, after learning the facts I would adjust based upon the reality. But I hope I would NEVER allow what I knew was untrue to skew my mind as a good chunk of the left is doing today. That would be insane.
Well, yes. The left only manages to associate violence with the “right” by lying about it.
Hitler was not a conservative. He was a left-wing socialist, who was rebranded by the Communists after he broke with them.
Mussolini spent his youth as a Communist, which is where he got his ideas.
The KKK was about 95% Democrat. The Democrats were the party of slavery, and they were also the party of the KKK.
We used to be repeatedly told that the drugged-out skinheads in the inner cities were right-wing extremists and racists. Racists, maybe, but there’s nothing especially conservative in getting stoned every day. The chief difference between a skinhead and a hippie is that one shaves his hair off and the other grows it into a ponytail.
It comes down to the fact that conservatives (in general) recognize the principles of objective morality, objective rules, and objective right and wrong.
The left, in rejecting God, also reject objective morality, rules, and right and wrong.
The only way to determine what actually IS right is POWER.
Who controls the power of the state controls “god”, so to speak, because they control the power to set morality, rules, and what is right and wrong.
This is why they are so attracted to State power and therefore to politics.
