One day, one lion said to another "compassionate predator...i like it"
One day, one lion said to another "compassionate predator...i like it"

Fake Conservatives ADORE emotionally potent, oversimplifications of the issues and hold fast to a pathetic "team spirit" tribalistic attitude at all costs. Fake Conservatives worry not about sadistic social policies, only that they identify as Conservative, and to Hell with everyone else.

A California conservative is an individual who identifies as conservative but operates within the unique political landscape and cultural context of California. Unlike conservatives in other parts of the country, California conservatives tend to hold a more progressive stance on certain social issues, such as LGBTQ rights and environmental protection.
They often embrace a pragmatic approach, combining conservative fiscal policies with a willingness to support progressive social policies. California conservatives recognize the importance of fiscal responsibility and limited government intervention in economic matters. They advocate for low taxes, reduced government spending, and a business-friendly environment to foster economic growth and job creation. However, they also acknowledge the need for certain government programs and regulations to address pressing environmental challenges and income inequality. They like shooting guns.

Alex: "Yeah, and we like to shoot guns."
