I predict this lying scum's screed will garner 8 pages of replies from idiots who really and truly think they can engage in honest conversation with them.

You're one of those who make me sad that DVs don't count for anything. I wish that when you and your prog filth friends rack up 1k DVs, you get auto-banned for a week.

I would say none of your perceptions of Christians or conservatives are correct. Maybe we could have a conversation about what's really bothering you?

I am better than you.
For example. I don't believe in KNOWINGLY LYING about a man being a rapist just because I want to win politically.

Which pain pill are you addicted too?

This is all up in that addled brain of yours and limited by your smaller-than-average pre-frontal cortex.
The average "upper middle class" "Conservative" family (of any race) that I know doesn't go out of their way to flash their money around.
I don't even play golf, let alone live above my means to impress anyone. I think jewelry on men is effeminate, especially gaudy bling.
On the other hand, have you watched any rap videos, ever?
There's a culture that views material possessions as signifiers of a person's worth and value. It isn't mine, nor do I understand it.

That's a bad way to start your 6th paragraph.

Probably. But nobody I know off hand.

Just this. You're a really bad writer. Are you by any chance a journalist?

You're the epitome of the angry black woman. Seriously, what is it that you are really so angry about?

I constantly read on this board all of the vitriol for social justice Warriors and I agree that they are annoying but the real virtue signalers are and have always been the right wing.
Typically speaking, over the years, church-going and God-fearing folks tend to lean conservative. Many of them believing in an angry and vengeful God so they adhere to strict principles, knowing that it's a lot less fun.
Many of them think of themselves as better and have used this ideology as motivation to do horrible and heinous things. Wanting the war in Iraq and backing everything George W bush did was an evengelical certainty.
As religion has begun to fade in this country the replacement ideology, for right-wing virtue signaling, has become success monetarily and how it proves they've done a better job as a human. Oddly enough, many of them are either lower middle-class or impoverished. Nevertheless, their desire to be a Dick Cheney or Donald Trump has led them to backing Hardline stances even if it doesn't help them in any way in living vicariously through the supposed success of Donald J Trump.
This blind-spot for conflict of interest and voting against their own welfare has created some harsh realities such as private prisons and deregulated industry. Supporting all of these things to live vicariously through whatever disingenuous snake oil salesman convinced them it was bad has bolstered the idea that it is okay to do whatever you want if you were Superior and it is okay to lock up as many people and point the finger at them.

I didn't even mention the fact that I read on this message board that white people have much higher IQs than black or Latin American people. That would be too easy of a slam dunk way to prove the theory that they always want to be better than you
How high are you?

It’s true tho.
Are you denying science?

Chinese and Japanese people have higher IQs than white people. This bothers me none, as a white person. It's also fascinating that people still make the claims of "cultural bias" in IQ testing, since Asians score higher than most Europeans.
And "white" average IQs vary across ethnicities quite a bit.

I'm feeling bored today so I'll at least attempt an honest discussion.
Both Left and Right can go to far. Currently we are in a swing where the Left is attempting to go to far. I won't argue that the Right doesn't have their own virtue signalers.
Full disclosure, I'm on the right and I'm not religious. But yes, it is true many conservatives are religious and have deeply held beliefs on conduct and morality.
Simply put, you are placing all conservatives into a box. That's not how we think uniformly. I, and many others, don't worship money in place of God. I'm not impoverished and I don't desire to be Cheney or Trump.
Conservatives tend to not change much, we like tradition, rule of law, our Constitutional rights, and free markets. It is the Left who continuously moves the bar, progressing further and further away. This movement of the left naturally results in the view that conservatism is "Fringe" and "Radical" despite the fact that if you speak to most conservatives, their viewpoints haven't changed much in decades. We conservatives still value the same things.
What does "Voting against my own welfare" mean exactly? I want less taxes? Less government interference in my life. I don't want the government to give me handouts and "Fix" things for me. Time and time again government has only proven to make things worse, not better. I don't consider myself superior to anyone, I consider myself equal under law which is all that's required of me towards another citizen. I'm not required to be your friend, to accept you way of life, or to treat you with respect that isn't earned.

Just saw a reply to the IQ map on twitter ranting about the evil white man's test and all the map actually shows is rate of literacy.
Short answer, yes, they deny science, a lot.
