Are they "social conservatives"?

Barack Obama campaigned as an anti gay marriage candidate. He bluntly stated marriage is between a man and a woman. Trump loved the gays his whole life as long as they paid the door fee at his clubs and left less competition for bimbos.

Theres one movement thats championed the hijab, campaigns against sexual liberation and representation of attractive female forms in art and media, wants to institutionalize explicit race based discrimination and is virulently racist and spams slurs against black men who walk off the reservation. There's one movement that supports women's sports, crusades against institutionalized racism and is overly opposed to regressive islam.

What is social conservatism in 2024?


Excellent question, I would like to hear a conservative explain what it is to be conservative, in particular socially.

Woke Hollywood dictating how many men / women / alphabet people / fat chicks / disabled people and purple hair clowns appear on the screen in every movie is why people can't stomach their movies anymore.

People just want a good story. Can't remember when I last went to the movie theater, lol. F that trash with a capital F

To see the usual suspects blaming it on "the right" is funny though :thumbsup:

Hot take, it is natural and desirable to discriminate against socially corrosive groups that are proud and unrepentant about the misery & disease they cause (gays and atheists)


There are a lot of dumb takes in this thread but this takes the crown. Which diseases and what misery are gays and atheists causing? The Venn Diagram of atheists and people willfully spreading diseases is probably close to two circles, while there certainly is an overlap between "people bringing polio back" and "christians".

If you wanted to imply that "the gays" spread AIDS (among themselves?), you really need to find a little empathy in your cold, little, bitter heart. A lot of people died horrible deaths and instead of trying to find the root cause and help them they were stigmatized and outcast.

Liberal filmmakers have wised to the fact that woke films appeal only to a staggeringly low minority of viewers, and are a guaranteed flop at the box office. Instead, they are now aiming for a neutral political charge if only for pragmatic reasons. Straight to living room media e.g. Netflix & Amazon Prime are also slowly coming to terms with reality as woke offerings have largely been abysmal failures, e.g. the blasphemous monstrosity that is Rings of Power. Prior commitments mean these monstrosities still exist, but will be phasing out in the near future.

Woke people are, generally, shut-ins who live on the internet and who fear the risk of ridicule from going out in public. Regular people (largely conservative) like doing things in person like going to the theatres, if only for the novel experience, like eating in at a Pizza Hut before they shut down.

I was surprised to see that Am I Racist? is actually showing at Cineplex in my town. It looks great but I can't be assed to go to the theatres for it, I'll see it eventually.


This reads as if you’ve never left your hometown lol

So in your first paragraph you deny the fact that buggery spreads disease, and in your second paragraph you concede the point & make a non-argument that I need more empathy. How do you square this circle and which one is it?

It's common knowledge that the act of buggery (the root cause) is a disease vector for AIDS, HIV, Mpox and all the other BS that causes tremendous suffering to the afflicted AND costs the taxpayer alot of money. Where is the empathy for those who contract these diseases without participating in the degeneracy (the innocent)? Where is the empathy for all the people on the waiting list for life-saving medical care, bogged down by an overloaded system? For every responsible gay person who takes prophylactic measures (PrEP), there are 5 who don't, and it is those 5 who engage in the most unfathomable insane degenerate gay orgies with body counts beyond your imagination. Those are who should absolutely be prosecuted, and anyone who partakes in buggery *should* pay their debt to society through massive taxation or repentance through hard labour.

To the next point, evangelizing atheism is spreading misery. It is telling people they should despair and have no hope, and it has no place in a kind & moral society. It should absolutely be illegal to spew insane & immoral blasphemy to people who need help, who need uplifting, and not be brought down by the willfully miserable who want more company. Again, repentance through hard labour is the preferred solution.

Can you elaborate or defend this argument, or is it a nonsensical personal attack?

I'm fairly well travelled but I don't like travelling. I lived in the big city for 2 years, and in the homeland for 2 years, and have visited alot of foreign countries. My initial hometown & place of birth is in Ontario. The grass really is greener in the Pacific NW.

AIDS is the name for the condition you develop with untreated HIV, not a different disease. I have empathy for everybody who died a horrible death of AIDS, it's a shit way to day and politics could have done so much more to prevent a lot of those deaths. Since AIDS was mostly spread by unprotected sex with other gay people, I think the conclusion that "the gays spread AIDS" is still dubious at best, unless you mean between each other 50 years ago.

People dieing because they can't afford medication is a mostly US problem in the first world and a result of greed, not gay sex.

If your faith is the reason you help people who need help, more power to you. Religion itself is not uplifting, just look at the last two thousand years of history filled with fear, death and destruction caused by it. The same way a person not believing in god can still be kind and moral, usually out of empathy for other people instead of fear of eternal punishment after death.

Out of curiosity, what punishment do people the that didn't wear masks in public the last years deserve?

im entirely unsurprised, just as radio was delegated to conservatives who still used the technology at ever growing rates compared to liberals. i expect direct to streaming released to grow increasingly woke and theater releases to continue to cater to conservative fantasies.

Megalopolis had a liberal agenda but I think there's plenty of conservative fantasies involving Aubrey Plaza
