The Culture War as Farce
A few days ago I happened upon a right-wing comment thread on Kavanaugh in which the deplorables were loudly denouncing liberals for their immorality.
And I was tempted to write, “Hello? You’re the ones defending sexual assault.”
But of course, there’s no point, since these are the same people who think Trump is godly.
One might as well teach physics to a tree stump.
But now that movement conservatism has devolved into a cesspool of white supremacy, misogyny, jingoism and just plain stupid; and their Dear Leader is a con man and all-around amoral sleazebag; and they’ve been put in the position of having to overlook credible sexual assault allegations to seat an obvious liar on the Supreme Court; we probably shouldn’t lose sight of the fact that, deep down, these people probably do still think they are on the side of morality and liberals are not.
