I really think even outside of religious circles that’s the problem with the right. This obsession with “thinking is hard” mentalities. I can’t even send an article about something to some people, completely unrelated to politics, without being accused of being political because it has more words than a Facebook meme.
EDIT: I had to cut a conservative friend out of my life recently, and a month or two before that he literally shushed me at his house and told me I was being too political before immediately talking about guns for 30 minutes. My topic?
Busses and bike lanes. Just…give bikers a separated space instead of a sliver on the edge and that I ride the bus so it’d be pretty cool if that worked better.
Single issue voters who aren’t particularly evil BUT don’t mind extreme evil in the service of their single issue. Basically all Republican “single issues” also have some organization spending billions to convince those single issue types that “Yeah we want to genocide trans and whatnot but if we don’t literally overthrow the govt a Democrat will KICK YOUR FUCKING DOOR IN AND SHOOT YOU IN THE FACE TO STEAL YOUR GUN/BIBLE/WHATEVER”

It’s funny. I’ve had more republicans stop telling about stuff other republicans are doing…
… because it makes them uncomfortable.
Okay, but you know what makes more people uncomfortable? All this bullshit being done by a political party they vote for.
If that makes you uncomfortable… maybe don’t vote for them…
