If there is a way to kill a vulnerable person, a conservative will find it.

Do your part to combat conservatism. Exclude conservatives from your daily life. There is no place in polite society for such vile, grotesque villains.

I wish you wouldn’t jump to blaming conservatives for this!

They would never do anything so blatant!

They’d leave poisoned water and candy little children like.

Sure, ALL conservatives are grotesque villains who love killing vulnerable people… Some people should hear themselves speak, smh. Username checks out I guess.

I’m glad you heard my message correctly.

When you choose villains as your representatives and then remain silent as they do horrific things to vulnerable people, you are a villain.

And your solution is to shame and dehumanize the entire conservative community into submission/irrelevance? Labelling everyone on your right a villain, nazi, fascist or whatever solves absolutely nothing and kills any attempt at honest discourse.

Stop whining about “not all conservatives”.

Of course it’s not all conservatives, but it’s enough conservatives that do (or support, donate to, etc) shit like this that cause people to die, one way or another.

Instead of crying about it why don’t you go after your fellow conservatives about the shit they do instead of others for calling it out.

So you’re saying that you oppose the people removing the water then, right? How about J6? Do you believe it was a coup attempt by Trump and his compatriots, and they should all be held accountable? I have yet to meet a Conservative that does not dance around the subject. Please show me that I’m wrong.

I remember that Bible verse fondly.

And yay, Jesus said unto the people, “I have taken these loaves of bread and water and turned them into a feast for all1

1 Does not include anyone with a slightly darker skin tone2 or from outside of the greatest country ever3 or poor or lame or weak or obese or ugly or that doesn’t fit my perfect description of a person4

2 Unless that skin tone was achieved through baking oneself under harsh UV rays (real or artificial).

3 Obviously I mean the United States. That totally existed in biblical times you pedantic asshole.

4 Even if I don’t personally fit this description, this absolutely applies to me as well. I can be fat and poor and worthless, but fuck all you other people struggling with life. Be born better.

Most likely Border Patrol or some group of “Compassionate” Conservatives. Who else would do something as inhumane? Literally nobody else has the motivation.

Border Patrol has a long history of destroying water stores left out for migrants. It’s usually plastic jugs that they slash open and leave behind to be found by the migrants, which is almost worse to find than just taking the water and USBP knows that.
