What does winning look like to you? Serious question. What does conservative utopia look like?
As a progressive libtard, I envision a country where basic needs are met, and everyone is treated with dignity and respect. Nothing crazy.

Homosexuality would be a crime itself, not just no marriage (it was just recently as 2003)
Pro Life
Less voting rights for women/non whites
Stricter punishment for crimes. More death penalties, life sentences
Heavier influence of bible on laws
No teachings of evolution in science class
Disrespecting the flag, country, is a crime
Bible is thought as factual in schools
Marijuana significantly less likely to become legal
Significantly more dry counties and laws against alcohol

Did liberal programming compel you to throw ‘White’ in there with all the white supremacy talk in MSM? Think about what percentage of the black population identifies as Christian...
Why don’t you interpret it as, a society that has predominantly Christians values (love your neighbor, the golden rule, fruits of the spirit, 10 commandments, and we have the bill of rights)
But no, it’s automatically gay hating white supremacy. lol
Maybe I should be intellectually dishonest and interpret your utopia as strict lockdown communism where everyone has nothing, and they’re happy for it. Why do liberals twist what others say to justify their perspective on people they view as “the enemy” srs question

Was having this conversation with a co-worker today about how everyone at the end of the day just wants their family and themselves to be taken care of. To have food on the table and a roof overhead. The media blasts the outer 5% of the bell curve that makes it seem like the whole country is at war, then you walk outside and everything's normal.
I feel that government service should be a cross between jury duty and a monastic order. People get randomly selected for service and they have to take a vow of poverty/have all assets frozen. You get issued your robe and a cot in a bare room. Until we take the money out of politics there's no chance for the common folk.I don't know either lol

That is the fundamental difference. You feel there should be a requirement for others to take care of you even though you are perfectly able to take care of yourself. Additionally, how exactly do you define "basic needs". I'm sure you don't actually mean the basic needs of food and water that a lot of people in this world do struggle to obtain. I would bet you actually feel entitled to much more than that and likely even beyond the basic rights the constitution of this country promises to provide.
Conservatives want a country that provides the freedom for everyone to meet their own needs and the opportunity to obtain their wants, providing for people when they truly cannot provide for themselves not those that just expect others to provide for them.

Anybody can get a good job and make lots of money, but not everybody can. There’s a big difference between anybody and everybody.
Anybody can be an engineer, but can everybody? No, because than who would lay brick, put out our fires, or drive our trucks?
Anybody can start a business. But can everybody? Can everybody be a business owner? No, then who would work these businesses?
In order for our society to work how it does there has to be poor people. There has to be people at the bottom doing low skill work, these people need to exist.
I think as long as these people need to exist and as long as they wake up every morning and contribute to our society, they should be able to afford the medicine they need to not die.
