re: #432 GeneJockey

It’s raging against any hint of conserving energy, or doing anything that conservationists would approve of. I struggled with it for some time, trying to understand how CONSERVatives could object to CONSERVATION.

Then I finally realized that there is no core set of principles behind modern conservatism. It’s now just being against whatever they think liberals are for. Though this is most sharply apparent since Obama’s election, it was there for a long time, in things like how they praise their ‘thinkers’ - “Drives Liberals crazy!”, etc.

It’s like the end of the “Asshole Song”. Going out and doing stuff simply in an attempt to piss other people off. Real life trollin’.
