The public sector is liberal.
Corporate America is liberal. Attorneys are liberal. IT is liberal. Schools are liberal. Colleges and universities are liberal. The news media is liberal. The courts are liberal. The DOJ is liberal. We lost the church. We lost the GOP. We lost Boy Scouts. We lost Fox News. We lost Chick Fil-A. We lost AM talk radio. We lost Sports Illustrated. We lost country music. We lost ESPN. We lost Disney. My in-laws are even commie liberals. Outside of each other, what do conservatives have? Brighten my morning ARF - tell me we have something. There won’t be a civil war 2.0. They just have to wait for GenX to die off. What have we gained? |

You have arfcom. The last true bastion of conservative thought. The last safe space.

I can tell you what they have left:
The ability to be self defeating doomers. Quit crying and go change each of those things with what you can do with people around you. |

Conservatives never "had" any segment of society or it's institutions. One could argue that social conservatives dominated certain protestant denominations, perhaps. But otherwise, nope.

All right, they’re on our left, they’re on our right, they’re in front of us, they’re behind us…they can’t get away this time.

Conservatives have the truth.
Leftists struggle with reality, and reality always wins out in the end. The problem is that they tend to do an enormous amount of damage in the meantime. They learn from their tactical mistakes but they never question their flawed central dogmas. If conservatives want to win (or at least diminish the societal harm that leftists tend to do) we have to organize and have solidarity with each other. That also means making functional alternatives to leftist run institutions. And a personal commitment from everyone to use our alternatives. Which many conservatives are sadly too lazy or cheap to do. |

The left ruins everything it touches.
We will rebuild over their mess. This is an endless cycle. Same as it ever was. |

IT isn't liberal if you exclude the Indian imports.
My IT department did a range trip to Trop Gun Shop, complete with full auto goodness. |

What have we gained? View Quote That being said, I think in some ways, we have a chance to see things boomerang back our way. Look, even after lockdown, an entertainment starved America has begun to turn it's back on pro sports and Hollywood. That ought to count for something. The American people saw Democrats in all their glory in as they burnt down our cities. It was a very bad look. The mask is coming off, so that's a plus. As for the rest of what you wrote, attorneys are in the business of making money, don't sweat them. IT is in the business of not helping you solve your computer problems. Don't sweat that either. In general, spend time with your family and people with similar beliefs, raise your kids right, make sure your finances are in order, protect your mind and spirit from the world's influences, and pray. It's a demographics game at this point, and one we're probably going to lose inevitably. That's alright. People have survived far worse than what is coming down the pipes for this country. |

They both vote Democrat. It is rare that people in government funded institutions are conservative and believe in limiting the scope of government. |

Culturally just small towns, independent churches, independent media and guns.
But the reason we’ve made it this far is self reliance. As long as there are enough of us that don’t need the government to run our lives they still have to try to convince us rather than just take from us. |

Most of the Civil PE's that I know or have worked for vote GOP, I guess that doesn't mean they are conservatives though. They are also men. The female PE's I know are of latina decent and vote the D.
I guess that is probably changing due to the liberals making it STEAM instead of STEM. |

Good people.
Get out more and do stuff. Camp, shoot, etc. You'll meet like minded people with your same values and have fun at the same time. I'm going to Cola Warrior next week, and while it certainly isn't a political event, I'm going to camp and shoot with fine Americans. And that makes me happy. |
