Being ok with being conservative is akin to being ok with being stupid. It's basically an admission of idiocy.

No. Stupid isn’t something you choose. As an adult, bigotry absolutely is.

[-] regeya@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago

Ignorance is a choice, too. I've met so many people who are proud of being ignorant. I once met a woman who was in her mid 30s who was explicitly against learning new things because...reasons?

Ignorance can be something you choose, but only if you’re actually smart enough to make the choice.

Gonna have to agree to disagree on that one, barring very different understandings of the word “stupidity.” Cognition and action are different things, and pretending they’re the same doesn’t improve the efficacy of interventions.

The difference between ignorance and proud ignorance is ginormous.

Seriously, conservatives want to pretend like we're all just regular people so what do our political views matter right? But if The last 8 years have taught me anything it is that every conservative is some level of a bigot, even if you can get along with them, purely based off their political goals. Sorry, you can't just work your ass off to deny people rights and sequester people you don't like, then call it a "political view".

Worse than stupid. Malicious. Harmful. Hateful.
