In fairness a lot of the opposition the right has to the left is that they intuit that the left hates them and would simply use policies the right otherwise might like as a weapon against them. So their opposition to the policy is a survival tactic more than a policy difference.
Then of course ConInc came around and tried to formalize what was a survival tactic into some sort of political philosophy that the government ought not ever do anything at all even if it isn't run by people who hate them.
For example a lot of the right isn't against things like nationalized healthcare per se, but they hear lefties talk about all the reasons why they might want to refuse someone access to healthcare for not being left-wing enough and oppose the policy on those grounds.
Or public schools/homeschooling. A lot of people who homeschool don't see it as some inherent moral good over public schooling; they simply don't want their kids taught by the current crop of degenerates who work in the public school system.

That's not fair! We at ConInc have always worked hard to pass generous tax breaks and subsidies for our corporate donors. Need an onerous regulation removed? ConInc's got your back. Knowing how to maximize your earnings in the next mega-spending bill - that's true liberty.

I always thought healthcare would have been more favorable to conservatives had they framed it as charity, instead of a right that suddenly the government created.
Healthcare would be more favorable to conservatives if they knew they wouldn't have to pay for illegal aliens, abortions, transgender surgeries for children, and whatever new degenerate thing the left comes up with every 5 years.
Yes there's a lot of insider football problems with the healthcare industry as well. Just the basic fact that there isn't any negative feedback in the system to encourage people to stop receiving or reduce the amount of medical care they're receiving is a huge problem that causes healthcare costs to spiral out of control. It's more in the system's interest that an 800 pound man stay 800 pounds and receive all the treatments necessary to keep him alive at that weight than to tell him to lose 650 pounds.
But people like my mom don't care about that. They care that her mom has to spend $XXXX on the pills she needs but some dude gets his dick chopped off for free because he thinks he's a woman. Or that they had to wait X months for some procedure while there's free clinics for illegal aliens that for some reason we aren't deporting. Basic fairness stuff for people who are paying into a system that seems more interested in catering to people who don't.
the left essentially has no principles beyond "opposition" of what they perceive to be the right
Not wrong, but then you realise that the right is almost identical in this sense, and you realise why politics are spinning out of control - it's like a propeller not anchored to a base anymore, so it just flies off and destroys itself. The propeller base is reality, and both sides abandoned it, and are just arbitrarily spiting each other, driving each other farther and farther away from reality and farther into insanity.
If it were a different group of people refusing to take the vaccine, they'd be anti-vax right now. Somehow anti-vax went from granola to Home School, and they know what side they're on.
What the hell is going on, here??
They're literally denying accepted scientific wisdom (the second paragraph has been a known truth since umm, long before fucking penicillin was discovered...), AND contradicting themselves multiple times, all to push an agenda??!!
I just... I can't even, anymore.
It's like last night a tabloid TV show over here ran a story about how "good, stereotypical hippies" AREN'T anti-vax, and they are all in for getting jabbed, because they just KNOW it is "the right thing to do" (TM), for their fellow human beans... :-/
It honestly feels, at this point, like we're the last desperate holdouts against some sort of mass brainwashing event... And I know that's what they want us to think, and is why they keep ratcheting up the propaganda, but still, it's... Fairly disillusioning, I gotta say... :-(
"Your immune system has a perfect weapon against every possible disease in the universe. Against the black death, the coronavirus, or an infection that will emerge in 100 years on Mars. " - Kurzgesagt video posted today. It would be a shame if a wildly influential youtuber were to throw off the new narrative totally by accident.
I'm now convinced Mother Jones is a troll website run by /pol/. They come up with a headline that will get hate-shares based on what people are complaining about, and write an entire bullshit article to justify it.
That or this woman was borne from Kek himself to usher in the clown apocalypse.
Meanwhile, alternative medicine groups promote the idea that eating the right foods or taking certain vitamins and supplements will strengthen the immune system so that it can successfully fight off coronavirus. “Like any virus, coronavirus is no match for someone with a strong immune system,” writes Sally Fallon Morell on a blog affiliated with the holistic nutrition group the Weston A. Price Foundation. Coconut oil, bone broth, and raw milk are among the foods she recommends to bolster the immune system against coronavirus. Just to be clear: This idea is patently false; humanity has never seen the virus before, therefore our immune systems have no natural defenses against it.
If we have no natural defenses against a virus that we haven’t seen, then why wouldn’t we just die whenever we encounter a new flu strain?
Also nice shout out. Weston A. Price Foundation knows what they’re talking about. If you didn’t know, Mr. Price is a Canadian dentist who discovered in the 1930s that remote people who lived on natural unprocessed food suffered nearly no cavities, while those same people under the influence of refined grains and sugars not only suffered cavities, but had physical deformities and succumbed to diseases like tuberculosis while people with sufficient nutrition didn’t.
I read an excellent book of his called “Nutrition and Physical Degeneration” where he goes into this in detail, and it inspired me to follow something akin to keto. (incorporating pasture raised animal organs, raw milk, fish, butter, and similar nutrient dense foods)
In the past I’d say you were being hyperbolic. Since then I’ve heard groups of women talk when they thought they were alone. All about how testosterone is the top problem facing the world and how to get balls cut off. All envy and resentment and childish emotionalism. Why do we allow them to vote? Just say no. It’s not like they could do anything about it.

Purging the regressive left would be good for the environment as it would free up housing and reduce emissions and pollution.
“Muh heritage” “Traditional values” “I just want to go back to the way things were.”
-The Regressive Right
Do you wear a small hat?
No need to be shy. Just come right out and ask what you really want to know.
why is an innocent question loaded to you hm?
can't give an answer?
I do believe you are being asked, "are you Jewish?"
I know.
Fasting for Yom Kippur?
things were better before people like you were allowed to do whatever they want with no consequence
Elaborate
Retards.
It was 100% this. Trump broke them.

Welcome aboard to the truth, and being hated by the sheep.
No. Leftists have no standards or principles other than gaining power and oppressing others.
When the useful idiots wake up, they realize "oh shit, it was all a scam" and shift pretty quick.

We're already at "the immune system is a right wing conspiracy theory".
What do you mean WHITE blood cells?!
And "transphobic" or some shit, lol...
Don't worry, they'll find some way to blame le straight white male. I'm 100% confident of that. After all, they always do... 🙄
