It's pretty hopeless to explain to Americans that "classic conservatism" is Edmund Burke: reactionary monarchism. US "conservatism" lacks coherent political theory. They just attack any institutions of civil society (law, art, science) which thwart their claims to racial or gender superiority
Show PostHere’s the thing, if they are picking up folks working in the country illegally, I’m going to need to see some white guys also being arrested for employing people working illegally in the country. Otherwise, it’s just racism.
