Sorry Conservatives - Conservatism will never be cool. You guys sound ridiculous and like you’re so desperate to be “underground” and edgy, just like how Conservatives try to recruit rappers for a similar purpose (sweaty old white rich Conservatives have street cred! ).

It’s really lame and LARPy, not to mention inauthentic.
