Do you think there are more liberals or conservatives on SW?

@canusernamebemyusername Very interesting that conservatives have time to be here during the day. They like to claim that liberals “don’t work”, after all.

@bijouxbroussard That is a good point🤔

@bijouxbroussard I have an uncle who is conservative, meaning he votes for the "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" politicians and the religious fundamentalist politicians. He worked for his dad's company through most of his adult life. After his dad passed, his mom moved into his sister's house an hour away so that his sister could take care of their aging mom. Meanwhile, he moved into his parents' house, picking up the mortgage where they left off. Oh, and he only lived 15 minutes away from their house originally, in an apartment. Since he moved into their old house, now he's having an affair with someone. Definitely living up to his supposed values.

@33person Except for the affair, I suppose.

@bijouxbroussard It just seems like he had a lot handed to him to be telling other people to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

@33person Honestly, that’s generally who says that sort of thing (Ivanka Trump actually said it, amazingly). People with compassion understand that inequality means not all folks are even born with ”boots“, to use the analogy.
