These are two of the the primary things gone from my life now that I've cut every conservative I can from it. It's glorious.

So if you want me to support some kind of outreach for conservatives (who apparently can't post anywhere they aren't overtly welcomed and that's a problem the rest of us need to fix) I need some understanding of what you think the upside is.

I haven't seen that.

I've seen scolding people for not wanting to surround themselves with people who have had years and years to demonstrate what they are like and what they support. The only thing new about modern conservatism is how it no longer bothers trying to pretend it's not hateful.

As I have said repeatedly, nothing stops a conservative from coming here and communicating like an adult.
