It's a Jungle in There

I mean the conservative mind. Look at America, probably the most fortunate people in the history of the world. Good candidates, anyway. And conservatives rise up and destroy it. Out of nowhere. No reason. 

They can't help themselves. There was nothing wrong. Or, to the extent there was, it was the fault of conservatives. Take the Great Depression, the exact result of laissez-faire, attack economics and ideology. But they never gave up on those ideas because they made them rich. And a lot of people poor.

Fuck the country. Fuck the poor. Fuck everybody but them. 

They tried to pull off another depression in 2008. Obama had to drag us out of it and clean up their mess, the usual pattern. They obstructed that, except the part where he bailed out the rich people. Bailed out conservatives, which some Wall Street guys argued was necessary or the world economy would implode. 

Blackmail. And they're back at it under Trump. In spades. Unprecedented stuff. There was a time they might have believed their own bullshit. Maybe that makes it not bullshit, I don't know. Supply side. Rising tide. Boats. 

Whatever. Hard to make a case for that now. Incomprehensible inequality. Literally incomprehensible. Try to comprehend it, I dare you. Double dare and stand behind Trump when the Big Mac farts blast out of his ass dare you. Instead of doing illegal shit they're making corruption legal. 

Kidnapping, rape, murder, you name it, no problem. If you're a conservative. White collar crime? See under corruption. They were always all-in on that, rolling the dice on the legality. That Bush recession, the '08 thing, taught them something. They were basically immune. We were insuring their depredations. 

So, here we are. Conservatives are on the attack like never before. 

Never before in American history, anyway. Because of intolerance. They have to attack. Attack something. Someone. Anyone. Hispanics will work. Democrats. Children. Old people. Targets of opportunity. Boat people and fishermen, they don't know. They don't care. 

They attack without real cause, but because it's a jungle in there, in the conservative mind.
