    As progressive values become more mainstream being an edgy conservative becomes a form of counter culture.

    This shows in those god awful conservative memes people make that say shit like “Im not like other girls, I dress modestly, dont drink or do drugs and the only man I get on my knees for is JEsus” type shit. or the male equivalent where they talk about how theyre the only real man left in a world where people drink soy lattes and dont beat their kids.

      This. There’s this idea that ‘the counterculture’ is inherently progressive. It ain’t.

      And the trad Cath thing where they will keep women barefoot and constantly pregnant, yeah. Those are super creepy.
