    Out of morbid curiosity I went on r/conservative to see what they were saying about the files.

    Go there and it’s like Epstein who? Not a single thread, it’s all threads attacking AOC or threads defending racism with more racism

      I want to tell myself that sub is mostly bots, but then the guy clearly got elected, so maybe they are real…

        That sub is a small sample of the conservative base. Virtually every conservative I talk to in person is simply more ignorant overall, and often just parrot talking points (like black men who voted for him saying he’s not racist because he donated to black colleges when Harris didn’t, but she sent innocent black men to jail, etc).

        They are literally and figuratively fucking dumb. Magical thinking, horoscope, and firmament believing nutters.
