When I was a child, I was expected to call my teachers Mister, Miss, and Missus.

In other words, I was expected to not only memorize the genders of each of my teachers, but also whether they're married if they're a woman.

As a conservative, this grooming drives me insane. My teachers could have used a gender neutral word like "Professor". I should have been learning reading, writing, and arithmetic, not what my teachers have in their pants or what they do in their bedrooms. A child has no reason to know that.

“So how would YOU feel if YOU were aborted” is a pretty damn pointless argument, seeing as there’d be no *me* to feel anything in the first place

"i love that instead of just not thinking climate change is a big deal, conservatives like jordan peterson have just begun denying basic biological truths such as “environmental factors affects species in different ways”

Conservatives: Alpha manly men are lone wolves who don't need to depend on anyone to survive!

Wolves: Are hypersocial creatures who depend on fellow pack members for survival.*

Literal Lone Wolves: Are the weakest kind of wolf there is; Lone wolves are rare because they don't survive long on their own. If they don't join a new pack ASAP after leaving their pack they die. To quote Rudyard Kipling, "The strength of the wolf is the pack."

* As evidenced by a direwolf skeleton with a significantly healed skull fracture that would have caused brain injury, they also care for the disabled members of the pack that can't contribute, which is NOT what conservatives claim is the natural way of things.

Honestly I a minor thing that conservatives do that I find incredibly telling about their psychology is they'll take adjectives that describe minority groups and use them as nouns.

Instead of saying "a black person" they'll say "a black"

Instead of "a gay person" they'll say "a gay"

Instead of "a transgender person" they'll say "a transgender" (well, when they don't just say a slur)

I don't think it's a conscious thing, but I think it tells us a lot about the conservative mindset. They don't view us as people - they view us as an out group fundamentally separated from personhood that fully encapsulates who and what we are and makes us innately and radically different from "normal people".

This was further borne out in an argument I got into with a conservative back when I still had a Twitter account. The guy steadfastly refused to accept the idea that a trans person could be a normal person because trans people are only 1% of the population. When I pointed out that literally everyone has things about them that are statistically very rare, his only response was to scream incoherently at me about self-mutilation and grooming children.

The Right-Wing Stupidity Hall Of Shame

This is what one might call a living document as well as a sort of “best/worst of” for this blog. How this is going to work is that we are going to do this by year and month and every time I cover a conservative who says something particularly dumb I’ll add that post to the hall. In short, watch this space every time I get ticked off in a post.

April 2024:

Tim Pool dedicates an entire episode to yelling about furries in Utah.

The Daily Wire attacks women's sports and accidentally reveals their hypocrisy around trans athletes.

Fox News and the Daily Wire freak out over European Scrabble with hilarious results.

March 2024:

Candace Owens uses old photos, an RT writer, a clairvoyant that defamed the French prime-minister, and an antisemitic blog that says that Emmanuel Macron wearing a pink tie is a sign that he's a satanist as sources to prove that Brigitte Macron is secretly a transwoman.

February 2024:

According to Ben Shapiro, AI is anti-white. To prove this he lies about an executive order, ignores a massive amount of data, and digs through the old tweets of some guy who works at Google.

Chaya Raichik gives a terrible interview where she endorses a white nationalist conspiracy theory and split hairs about how ok it is for journalists to lie (but only her, not everybody else)

Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro attempt to argue that society has abolished all taboos and that's leading to an increase in "sexual boredom"

Matt Walsh advocates for harassing trans kids and tells people who are having difficulty living on the minimum wage to "stop being on the minimum wage".

Tim Pool makes multiple poor defenses for some guy's who defaced a rainbow crosswalk meant to honor the LGBTQ victims of a mass shooting and then calls on Ron DeSantis to commute their sentences.

January 2024:

Dave Rubin accidentally reveals that he may be the laziest journalist of all time multiple times over the span of a single episode.

Charlie Kirk teams up with a guy who collaborates with Neo-Nazis, a guy who got fired from FOX for being too racist, and some guy who works for him that sued Arizona once to declare that all movies are psyops, make disgusting false statements about the border, and praise a white nationalist who works at VDARE.

Tim Pool puts out an absolutely ridiculous episode where he uses jokes from TV shows to prove how AI women are going to lead to the death of society.

Matt Walsh thinks it's gay to love your wife and misrepresents every point he argues in the episode.

Tucker Carlson interviews a congressman who thinks that his wife having a nightmare is proof that COVID is a ploy to take away American liberty about supposed January 6th evidence that we will never get to see.

Michael Knowles wants to create cartoon Nazi propaganda to "own Disney for transing the kids"

Tim Pool thinks that "sneaky fucker males" are turning women lesbian.

December 2023:

Michael Knowles is really concerned that a five second clip from a CocoMelon video is going to turn kids gay.

Dave Rubin casually suggests that 65,000 people being laid off due to the Bud Lite boycott is OK because "They'll just get a job somewhere else"

Matt Walsh fantasizes about misgendering trans people on air and generally conducts himself like an unempathetic child.

Ezra Levant doesn't even bother to read a document he's citing even though it directly contradicts his point

Tim Pool uses an out of context tweet containing disinformation as a source and as a result ends up spreading misinformation about Taylor Swift.

Michael Knowles decides that porn videos turn people trans and gay, to prove this he interviews a woman who tries to push back on his stupidity but ends up getting steamrolled by him

Ben Shapiro has no reading comprehension and declares that everyone on the left worships Beyonce

I found this on Facebook. Conservatives, who are all about "stop sexualizing children", seemed awfully silent in the comments.

But God forbid a teacher put a rainbow flag in a classroom.

As a conservative who believes that "no one is entitled to the fruits of someone else's labor", I completely agree.

“Stop making everything political!” says the crowd currently shitting themselves in anger because a video game lets you choose between he, she, or they.

Whatever you do, don't vote blue.

As one of my Grade 5 students so eloquently and aptly put it:

"Smith worries me, and I don't trust her. She's been recorded multiple times saying 'Should the government really have to cover 100% of the cost of a doctor's visit?'. Which is like, yeah. Because some people can't afford to pay and if you don't go to the doctor you die."

Healthcare isn't a luxury and it's not optional.

It's literally listed as a right in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which we have ratified.
