Those same ones who screamed about fema prisons... At some point, we'll catch on that these conspiracy theories are actual plans...

The question is: which came first? The conspiracy theory, or the plan? It could go either way with the party of family values.

Ah, see, there's your problem: you're using a slight mistranslation. A common mistake. They were never the party of "Family Values". They're the party of "Family Valuations". They exist to find a way to put a number on every family, either "amount of money we can squeeze out of them" or "amount of money we can make by destroying them", and they get bonuses from their corpocratic upstream if they can manage both at the same time.
