      The old line from the 70s was that conservatives were liberals who had been mugged. One wonder what it will take for today's progressives to experience the consequences of their own policies.

      Because if history has taught us anything, it's that progressives learn absolutely nothing when *other people* suffer from their policies.

          That’s why the conservative response to every mass shooting is hopes and prayers right?

          hopes and prayers and armed guards vs banning guns that weren't used. Which seems more helpful? (in practice, neither is very helpful, but one is completely unhelpful)

          History has taught me that no one learns anything when other people suffer. Political leanings have nothing to do with it.

          Kind of reminds me how conservatives suddenly became fine with gay rights when their kids came out or how stem cell research became ok when a conservative got diagnosed with lymphoma.

          It's almost like conservatives advocating for endless wars, causing untold suffering to millions of people in foreign lands or learning nothing from the suffering and death of the poor due to lack of healthcare.

          And if facts mean anything, revanchists will have to admit every industrialized democracy--Canada, most of Europe, South Korea and Japan--currently provides their people with the services US progressives propose -- and they are all kicking America's ass on the coronavirus.

          Their whole platform is based on other people. Other people’s money, other people’s problems and other people’s livelihoods.

          That's the bulk of their knowledge actually. And they put it to use.
