Lol. Your definition of Conservative might as well be “ Bad “. Honestly man, the modern Conservative Movement didn’t even EXIST until the 1950s.

Using the term “ social Progressive “ for Republicans is a comically transparent way for you and other Democrats to try to appropriate their virtue. They were simply classical liberals. The same way they are now. They supported the Rule Of Law, Equal Protection and Individual Liberty just like they do now . Your party, and your creed STILL supports tribalism based on external features.

there are VERY few of these left

I know more about this than I care to. But the Goldwater/ Reagan Republicans barely exist in the current structure

Very Few Free markert , Individual Rights ,Liberty minded Types exist on the national stage

They believe it man. It’s a Fundamentalist religion and that was him spilling his Fundamentalist Orthodoxy. That was him wagging that nanny finger and saying “ racistsexisthomophobe “ just like I said in the OP. It’s hardcore religious belief and it will send your mortal soul to hell if you interrupt the party. Seriously, no insufferable Christian Fundamentalist in modern times was ever near as insufferable and judgmental as the Progressive Fundamentalists are.

Tell us when the insufferable moralists on the right had this much sway on the media.

1954?

I don't know about the media in terms of news but it's rather interesting to me how much things have changed with entertainment media since I was born.

If you would tell some people what was considered taboo and off color in the 80s and 90s some people wouldn't believe you

The conflation of conservative/Republican to try to prove some party shift bs is one of the great lies that liberals tell themselves to absolve the Democrats of their true history. The dems are the party of slavery, the Klan, Jim Crow and opposition to civil rights. That has never changed. Lyndon "I'll have those n-words voting Democrat for 200 years" Johnson began the dependency and identity politics that characterize the dems today. Still racists, just with a slightly different twist.

I prefer it now when I don't give a shite about any of that.

Or maybe it was better in the past... when I still didn't give a shite about any of that.

Tough call

Us Christians on right never intended you any harm and genuinely believed that what we were doing was good for you.
The left moralist want to hurt you, hurt your finances, jobs, families, etc. if you don't comply.

Talking to me respectfully about morality ( as you have always done ) isn’t being an insufferable moralist. I know you as a friend and a deeply moral person, not a moralist. There’s a huge difference.
