There is no better measure of your worth to a conservative than how many hours you are willing to work in support of the 1% becoming even richer.
Religious conservatives are trained from childhood to unwaveringly believe things that can't be proven, and teaches that malice is the only acceptable way to get dopamine.
Its the moisture
Well, and the coldness inside too ❄️
Typical conservative reply: it’s your fault you’re offended that I was an asshole.
The conservative people that run my job think they're funny or something. We get a the standard holidays off but if the 4th of July or whatever falls near a weekend they'll swap another holiday to make it a 4 day weekend.
The only holidays they "trade away" are MLK day and Juneteenth... Funny that.

The funniest thing about conservatives is how they'll complain the left are a bunch of snowflakes, but you say a single word like trans and they'll probably explode into a million pieces because you said a bad word that scares them.
I was reading a standard celebrity obituary article the other day. It was an actor nobody really remembers and it mentioned his family and the shows he was on.
In the comments someone said something like:
I don't know why you had to mention his husband!!! Why does everything have to be so woke?
Sure, pal, if he had married a woman, everything would be ok, but since he had a husband, we need to pretend that he doesn't exist around you so you don't feel icky?
Mentioned COVID tests around my dad cause my brother was going to see my Aunt sick with an aggressive cancer. He exploded about how COVID is fake and the Flu will kill her too..... Shes sick with cancer, dude.... Shut the fuck up....
Lol this same person once told me that he doesn't support LGBT or Black lives matter or any of that because he doesn't agree with those communities and thinks that they are hateful
They are hateful of him. And should be.
It’s cause they never know what trans people are packing, and a penis scares them more than a gun.
I love telling transphobes that they're only mad because the ladies' dick's are bigger than theirs.
What a loser. I hate people like this. We are all working hard you fucking dunce. Get your head out of your ass.
People like this are just primed to make up their own reality. Rather than face the truth that he has a (probably) shitty job, his mind instead translates it to: "those people are lazy, I'm a hard worker. I'm working a holiday because I'm a tough man and can handle it"
IDK, do you often act like you're way smarter than him, based on nothing but political differences, and he's getting sick of it? Just look at your story here, it's written all over it.
If you’ve known him for 20 years he should respect you enough that you can tell him he’s being a cunt. Coming from you it should mean something, and maybe he’ll take a look at himself. I’m friends with some right wingers who are decent people but folks like that need to be called out.
I’m friends with some right wingers who are decent people.
?
"right wingers" or "decent people"
Choose one, because they are mutually exclusive.
you shouldn’t be so sensitive
Imagine being so sensitive that someone else having a day off sends you into a insecure tirade about how hard you work. Ditch that loser. Life is too short.
The assertion that your friend is a harder worker might not ge true. I have had to work many holidays in retail because my job said I had to not because Im a harder worker.
its the propaganda they ingest. they are constantly told that everyone brown or poor does nothing but live off the government teat. constantly . despite this being demonstrably not true.
Company holidays mean you're lazy? Bro needs to get a grip.
Sounds like he's jealous that you are getting a day off and is trying to spin it as you being lazy
Yeah OP, it just sounds like an unhealthy coping mechanism. He might just need some empathy

God damn slightly damp conservatives.

Being a harder worker isn't something to be proud of, friend.
That depends on context but if you don't own your company ypu shouldn't be giving your job your all.
There is a reason, it's a psychological phenomenon called narcissism.
It’s just easier to hate.
People choose easy over ‘better’ as a rule.
…and, it’s just easier to hate and be angry than to work through the prejudices, and inner demons you may carry with you.
Inner work is much, MUCH harder to do. I have done some serious physical labour in my life, so I know what I’m comparing here (including the day in/day out of that life).
I don't understand how someone can go their whole life, never taking a look inside.
My brother, a right winger, brought his kids up to visit me last summer.
It was at the end of the week that he told me that I hardly work at all. I'm like: Yeah, I have fucking guests in my house. I was still at my desk when I wasn't trying to keep 2 teenaged girls entertained.
He moved his family 1000 miles away and 20 years later is lamenting that they have no relationship with the people he moved away from. (I'm sure it's just a coincidence that this lines up with the rise of "Family" talk from right wingers.) This same guy calls other people "Sheeple".
Sounds like him living 1,000 miles away is a good outcome.
Why is an adutl man concerned about how much another person works...
Also working hard is not a virtue, it is an indicator of poor management
Yeah, conservatives like to randomly plug phrases of propaganda like unfunny inside jokes. Depending on my relationship with them I do one of the following.
I can't find it, but there was a great meme of a tombstone that said, "worked really really hard". I'd also add that I acknowledge"blue collar" work being tough and important too. That's it.
Let him realize that everyone's doing their best.
I have friends like this too.
"if your position is that you CHOSE a job that makes you work on MLK Day, that makes you a dumber worker".
Guy's a dumbass because he's taking it on the chin from his boss, acting like it's fine, and then attacking everybody except the assholes. What a little bitch.
