Conservatives literally run on a platform of fear. Fear someone's gonna take your shit. Fear of your comfortable life being uprooted. Vote for us or these will happen!!!

...which parts of those fears apply to liminals downwards? That's been our SOE for two fucking decades.

Can't be conservative if you have nothing to conserve.

That said, I do have things to conserve but I still vote Greens because I have enough and I'm not utterly devoid of empathy.
