| | + | :::Conservapedia needs to up its game if it is going to keep calling its Conservapedia. Making Elon Musk a top contender for Conservative of the Year in 2022 was a mistake. It's not too late to fix this mistake. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) |

| | + | :::::I strongly agree with Conservative here when it comes to who we extol as a site. I very respectfully differ from the notion that "conservative populism" represents a feasible future, which probably won't be long at this rate. From what I see, "conservative populism" is a tool which Satan may use to pave the way for the Antichrist beast system. The overt decline of morality may be met with sentiments blaming the cause on "lack of rest" because it induces "stress." So what then? Well, let's say a day of the week is picked to ensure rest... ah yes, Sunday! So then petition the government, from a united front, to enforce Sunday rest. And then "conservative populists" who claim to be "Christian nationalists" will use that to enforce Sunday worship, claiming it will restore the country to biblical morality. What then? You can read the [[Book of Revelation]] to find out. |
| | + | :::::Yes, I know I'm invoking eschatology here into a deeply religious analysis; since conservatism is ''supposed'' to be grounded in Judeo-Christian morality, I think its portrayal and image should accurately reflect Scriptural wisdom. —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|<sup>(Mark 8:36)</sup>]]''''' Saturday, 17:17, December 31, 2022 (EST) |
| | + | I am a right-wing populist although they are not very good at fiscal discipline. In order to get a right-wing populist person elected in the USA, right-wingers have to be appealing to a coalition of right-wingers. And when Trump ran for president, he was appealing enough to social/religious conservatives (who are a right-wing coalition) by giving them a list of judges that he would pick if elected president. He also picked the religious conservative Mike Pence as VP (which was a mistake). |
