I think about the Soviet Union and communism and whatnot. I think your concept of liberal and conservative really set in a modern period. So now it means something totally different than what it used to mean. Liberals are not liberals, and conservatives are not conservatives, in the modern era in America. Like you might not agree with a European conservative, but they're not absolutely horrible, unlike the ultra far right in Europe as well as here in America. Now that might all change due to how much the establishment turns up the volume and the mass hysteria kicks in though. I'm coming from a sociological point of head space, mindset. In regards to America's liberal and conservative i see both as reactionary. America is one of the most propagandized populations in the world. We're like a mixture of North Korea and Disneyland without your wallet. An open-air prison where everybody's gaslighting the fuck out of you. The show must go on, remember to smile. to elaborate further, I think maybe it's always been like this and it just has to do with the bread getting short and the rise of right-wing populism. I think all of this lives on like a spectrum. I just think of Mass hysteria. The Masters know how to fuck with our heads. Like I'm gonna hide underneath my fucking desk to keep myself safe from a nuclear bomb. Fucking ridiculous.

Really? We would be better after blocking quite the range of views we don't like?
not the views we don't like, but the ones that cause harm and suffering for western societies.
No, just the views that are constant lies
Conservatism in the use has nothing to do with actual conservative thoughts, quite the opposite, really. It's just a cover for the rich to steal from, and control the poor.
Ant conservative media in the use today is just one large stream of lies, lies, lies. Anything to keep you distracted from the fact that they're stealing the coffers empty, anything to keep you so angry about "the others" that you wo t even consider talking to them to realise that you've been played
