“Uplifting news” that once again hilights the absolutely infuriating conservative psychology of “I give absolutely zero fucks about this topic until and unless it affects me personally”.

I am glad the dude changed his ways, don’t get me wrong, but fuck me if it isn’t depressing to consider that this behavior pattern is absolute cancer, and really hard to work constructively with on a societal scale.

Technically we all may possess this, with some topic, somewhere in our lives

Conservatives just picked a bunch that fucking suck for others lol.

Like, I hate mayo. I bet someone really skilled could change my mind, but I'm not gonna fucking try. Fuck Mayo

conservatives on average have a higher disgust response and think themselves more exceptional than others.

I would say they do this more than non-conservatives because they are motivated by disgust rather than ideals or empathy.

Hey it's cool. I came out to my parents thinking that they would have a similar "awakening."

They didn't.

So, way to go this guy, you're better than my parents. admittedly low bar, but hey, good news is good news!

I’m not your parents and I also think you’re best being who you really are.
