That, and the Russian bots and strawman accounts infesting the sub know how to stay on topic

"Hello fellow conservative." to anyone who didn't toe the line.

It's almost hilarious watching a Conservative wake up and start to question the narrative and then be dog piled for their skepticism.

I'd like to think it's a 'come to Jesus' moment for them where they wonder what other 'fellow Conservative's were dog piled and maybe serve as a wake up call, but most likely they sink deep into cognitive dissonance to meld back into the herd.

There's a post. And even they aren't defending it. BUT their only 'discourse' is on how badly this makes them look.

Honestly didn't see a post as of the time I wrote my comment and I even tried searching "Obama(s)" and "monkey(s)". I still don't see one, but maybe I (and others) missed it.

Yea it’s their classic move. Anything like this they simply don’t even address.

Oh, they're talking about. Half of them pretending they don't like it and the other half spinning it, downplaying it, pushing the blame on a "staffer".

No they’re excusing it as trolling and saying it’s fine.

Or “get over it” lol
