Oh, wait, it’s not a bit and there are dozens of them in this thread. Look at the full comments and scroll down for more blood and soil urbanists

The conservative stance is predicated on government doing little but doing the little they’re supposed to do (prosecuting crime) extremely well.

    I noticed this sort of thing recently when looking at Christmas decorations, specifically those ceramic Christmas village buildings you stick a light bulb in the back of to make it look like the building is lit up. It’s the most traditional, old-fashioned way to depict a proper Christmastime yet is built around an urban model (walkable town/city, small businesses, density) that conservatives don’t actually want to live in.

      A large part of conservatives kind of do? All the 50s ad (or AI generated 50s retro ad) trad conservatives keep depicting very much walkable, small towns and jerk off over them. It’s just their political approach to the stated end goal goes along the line of only-throw

      It sort of stems from the core issue of main character of the road symptom I think. They want to live in these quaint tradcath sundown towns except they also like big cars because bicycles are gay, which basically leaves you at an ideological dead end as to what you should do
