Every single thing conservatives are mad about can fit into three categories:

  1. things they made up entirely
  2. things caused by conservatism
  3. things that are none of their goddamn business

I'm not a Conservative voter myself, but respectfully, I don't think this is the kind of post that belongs here.

I get that a lot of CPC rhetoric is chimpanzees flinging poo at the wall, but there's no substance, not even a call for debate ๐Ÿคท

I may agree with this, but this is a soapboxing type of post which could be better suited for a shitposting type of community as it is.

I could make a post that says

Conservatives have terrible policy.

and end it there, and it would have about the same amount of substance.

Could you edit and either add examples of conservative policies that fit each category, or discuss how conservatives could be mad about more productive things, a comparison with things that upset progressives, or anything to make the post more conducive to discussion?

Not a conservative voter but respectfully OP, you need to go outside. Painting an entire wing of politics as "stupid and nonsensical" is really fucking stupid and shows your lack of understanding of politics in this country.
