"It makes sense only if you accept the reality that White Conservative Christian heterosexuals care nothing for ideological consistency." -- By the bye, this is SOP with fascism generally. As Robert O. Paxton has argued ('Anatomy of Fascism'), fascism does not have an ideology, and it will casually scrap its seemingly "A" listed programs in the name of greater political power.

And people wonder why I want to move to Norway.... 🤷🏻‍♂️
