Modern conservatism is mental illness - it's not a case of being dense - it's a case of being genuinely disabled.
Ironic for a political ideology grounded in and returning to eugenics.
Modern conservativism should be treating by banning the mentally ill from running for office and by imprisoning them.
I don't think we should be imprisoning the mentally ill (that's more of a conservative thing) - I think we should be giving them access to treatment. From there, the bulk of the conservative brain damage should resolve itself.
Imprisoning those inciting violence against minorities based on lies and attempting to overthrow the government based on more lies seems like a responsible step in protecting Americans and American democracy though.
By "imprisoning the mentally ill" I was saying "imprison the conservatives".
