A conservative version of me (not necessarily an inverse, so no need to be an atheist) would probably be a pretty typical suburban/exurban megachurch-attending evangelical who'd find the inner city repulsive and refuse to visit there and brag about my "all conservative all the time" social circle and lack of liberals, etc. So not much different from your typical movement conservative come to think of it.

And doesn't this ever give you pause?

Not really, no. I mean yeah sure the inverse of someone who's "all liberal all the time" is "all conservative all the time". Who knew?

The point is that "typical movement conservatives" tend to be pretty cringeworthy people partly for reasons that have nothing to do with their politics.

I'd expect you to say the same thing about "movement liberals", especially with what you think about marijuana and all.

...you still don't get it, do you?

No, it's not about Marijuana. It's about the in-group mentality and tendency to loathe and/or laugh at everything that falls outside of it.

So uh, like movement liberals. Who also tend to love Family Guy as noted.

Probably Last Man Standing instead (an openly conservative sitcom)

"Mike often finds himself annoyed with Outdoor Man's young slow-witted employee Kyle, and with Ryan, his son-in-law and the politically liberal father of Mike's grandson Boyd. The video blog or "vlog" that Mike does for Outdoor Man is frequently used as a vehicle to rant about his political views. Mike is a graduate of the University of Michigan, and an amateur radio operator using the call sign KA0XTT.[6]"

Heh, i'd never heard of this. Sounds like All In The Family only with Archie as the sympathetic character.

THAT WAS MY POINT

Seeing as how it's mocking conservatives, no. I'd probably like South Park though. But OMG would I hate Family Guy.

If we were going by a BRTD that was similar in personality and religious beliefs but with completely opposite politics i'm thinking this guy would be a good fit: http://www.theblaze.com/matt-walsh

Walsh is actually the best Daily Wire propagandist. Shapiro is annoying and Knowles is homophobic, while Walsh at least occasionally brings up things about Trump's mental fitness.

He'd probably be the 1 person in America who still says "freedom fries".
I prefer Kyiv Mules myself.

To tell you the truth, I read both of their posts in a similar voice.
