i mean I'm gonna be honest, I think conservatives at their core have an underlying belief in misogyny, transphobia, or racism that informs all their subsequent beliefs. It's their starting point. So when you try to get into very complicated things like how to set up urban planning to facilitate better transportation, conservatives are gonna come at that with their underlying biases on which humans are inherently better than others.

So that's gonna be a main reason for why discussing this stuff isn't going to seem like the same language. They start every thought with "but how does this help rich white people?"
