A Conserv-absurd is an argument that provides poor reasoning in support of its conclusion. Conserv-absurds differ from other bad arguments in that right-wing people find these psychologically persuasive, and therefore mistakenly believe its conclusion to be true even though it’s false.
Examples of “If P then Q” Conserv-absurds:
“If you don’t support the war, you don’t support the troops.”
“If we fight them over there, we won’t have to fight them here.”
Frequently such illogical sound bites are made into bumper stickers, and the false information will be distributed via email (to catapult the propapoop). More recently this trend has increased among social conservatives.
For example, infidelity is okay IF:
1. You don’t do it in your office. If you have extramarital sex elsewhere like an airport restroom or another country, then it’s okay, even when done at the taxpayer’s or company’s expense.
2. There is reconciliation with your spouse, no matter how much you really hate each other. Especially when there are kids, no matter how much you fight in front of them. It’s better to pretend you have "family values" than to have family well-being.
3. You ask forgiveness, though you don’t regret cheating--just getting busted. It has nothing to do with merit, but rather the appearance of repentance.
4. You do it because you’re fed up with Obama.

There they go again trying to blame everything on the “liberal media.” But Conserv-absurds are the real reason the country is going down the toilet!

Get the consequence mug.A Conservafuck is a conservative asshat. They are full of bigotry, misogyny, sexism, racism, and a whole bunch of other things that mean they hate everyone for the wrong reasons. They are narcissistic and think that ANYONE who calls them out for being disrespectful is a "liberal", like it's a bad thing. They mostly spew their hate on social media because they are too afraid and ashamed in what they believe in (Donald Trump) to approach anyone that disagrees with them, except the LGBTQA+ community. Conservafucks are extremely homophobic and mostly men. They cannot wrap their tiny little pea sized brains around the idea that someone would rather be with their own sex than be with them.
John Asshat: "You stupid fucking libtard! Go fuck your self!"
Sane people: "Ahaha look at that Conservafuck trying to hurt people's feelings! What a low life."

Get the conservafuck mug.Possible the most unsettling word in English when used by itself. Consent for practical purposes needs to be considered an absolute state or else we're promoting a rape culture. Anyone who uses the term unironically should probably be corrected.
I am completely desensitised to any form of excessive pleasure after years of semi-consensual orgies.

Get the Semi-consensual mug.The truest definition of the misconception of friends with benefits, fuck buddies, etc. The reasoning behind the consequences is no matter what, the benefits are overshadowed by the consequences.
Keegan: This girl really wants to be my FWB.
BSD: Dude, if she was serious and grounded in reality she would refer to it as friends with consequences, not benefits...
