Nope! I know what conservatives want and what they stand for, when I tell them to fuck off it's with pride and volume. Conservative isn't a race, a color, a religion or a sexuality. It's not beyond your control. It's a series of moral decisions made by a fully competent adult who can absolutely be held responsible for what they believe and what they try to do with their power in the world.

Wow, sometimes I invoke Poe's law when people say no one here gets a joke, but like what the hell happens here

It's clearly just joking mirroring. Of course we don't want intolerant people in our discourse.

Wouldn't a Muslim friend be conservative?

Define conservative. I don't count bigotry.

Isn't Islam technically Conservative? I'm confused

Religion should be opposed via education, culture, and general science, not via the state. Religion is conservative, but there are good religious people.

All religions are technically conservative. Individuals have individual relationships with their religions though.
