22. Conservatives are selfish, nasty, regressive people that infiltrate politics like parasites.

Like other parasites, they see the body, (or society) as an all you can eat buffet. The budget to them is nothing more than a collection of nutrients to suck dry without regard to the health of the population (body) that needs those nutrients to survive.
They lack the capacity to care about the health of the population or the body they infect even as it withers and dies. Their only concern is feeding the cells of their collective parasitic body of ".01% worm segments" that are sucking all the resources in a feeding frenzy that is leaving the healthy cells (or general population) anemic, sickly and withering on the very few nutrients left. As unhealthy as they have made us, this latest attack seeks to devour even more, if the body dies to fatten them, they will die also, but can not see that because that is the blind nature of a parasitic organism Of course they resort to extortion, they do not seek to negotiate in good faith to devour less of the host they infect. Parasites will often dine on the body, country, or world until everything is dead including themselves. Parasites never will (in truth never can) be concerned with the life of the whole but only with they can consume for themselves, One does not bargain with a parasite because to them you are merely food. One does not feed parasites because they will continue to eat more until they eat you as well. One does not welcome a parasite and cheer it on as it sucks the life from you. And it must be said that one does not introduce more parasites into one's body and call them "allies" in a big tent We need to rid ourselves of the parasites if possible or find methods to impede their ability to suck our body dry of the nutrients we all need to survive These parasites have infected our world, our country, an entire party, sadly even a large portion of our party leadership disguised as healthy cells (they are NOT), and even our discussions here in some instances. If the parasites wish to attempt to kill the host by shutting our organs down with this ploy, helping them will only aid their one obsessive goal of sucking us dry. Our party mustn't feed the parasites in the hopes they will let allow some nutrients past their mouths and into our system in a futile attempt to survive their infestation by bargaining. Our party must stop thinking that further emaciation is a "reasonable compromise", or a "pragmatic solution". The only way to survive such parasites is to poison them, not to attempt to negotiate with them how much of your body they will consume, because they will never stop, not until there is nothing left to feast on.
