To my readers… don’t interact with “conservatives” unless you must. If vexed, they stamp their feet, throw a tantrum, and resort to poo-flinging. I’ve found that this is invariable amongst those who label themselves “conservatives”. In short, they’re a cruel and peevish lot, best avoided. Leave handling them to thick-skinned sorts like me, who don’t expect anything but lies and hissing from their outraged ranks. As a leftist, I find “liberals” almost as bad, but their overtolerance and “labelling” (they put everyone into neat boxes… depriving them of their personality and personhood) isn’t as bad as narcissistic “conservative” mewling. Don’t ever reply to such… for my friends are still my friends… and my enemies are still my enemies. Some day, Whiteford and Dreher may understand that… but don’t hold your breath waiting…
Never let their rants abridge your behaviour… it won’t affect mine. Keep it focused and love to all of you…

The above images are of the traditional springtime subbotnik (voluntary labour day) in Moscow. The guys from KP (one of the biggest Moscow tabs, along with MK) went out in force! It’s one of the best traditions from the Sov times. People pitch in to clean up and beautify their hometowns! You don’t see this in America… it doesn’t pay, dontcha know. Russian lefties get on out there and work… American righties “talk a good fight”… you can hang with the KP guys and help others or you can hang with the American Conservative lot and help yourself… do choose well…
