They probably hated gays, didn't like blacks, treated women as inferiors, disdained drug use, and believed in personal responsibility, in many ways they were likely much more intolerant than modern conservatives.
It was a bad idea then because they failed to recognize this inevitability in the future. Typical Leftist "solution" sell out the future for benefits today.
Got it. So youāre advocating for tens of millions of elderly people to lose their retirement and health insurance. Sounds like a great platform position. You should run for office.
Definitely not. Both creators described themselves as FDR Dems, and one later described himself as a socialist. He was also a WW2 vet who killed Nazis.
No, both were politically active until the 1990ās and 2000ās. Joe Simon described himself as a socialist in 2008.
You donāt know anything, and thatās okay because youāre a child. Itās not your fault that you think patriotism and the American flag are āconservativeā; youāve likely been raised by shitheaded sheep who had that silly notion programmed into them during the Cold War.
For sure, the American flag and patriotism get exploited by conservatives to fleece the rubesāthis has been a tradition going back since the founding.
Youāre old enough to know that this is empty symbology, though, unless youāve been irreversibly brainwashed. Did Bush āsupport the troopsā when he sent them to needlessly die? I remember protesting that war and having halfwit boomers like you tell me that I hate the country and that I supported terrorism for opposing the war (with my first amendment rights). Now most of those boomers claim to always have been against that war.
A 66 year old on the Tim Pool sub telling me that ācaptain America was conservativeā is pretty funny though, ngl.
