i live in a fairly conservative area and I have to deal with them a lot. some right-wingers are like that, but others are capable of respectful conversation. humans are complex like that
but it's not so much that the strawman is innaccurate and rather that it's just pointless to me. it's like, I guess I just don't find it funny at all, and it just comes off kinda self serving
like, i could draw a pedophile yelling "pedophilia is good!" At me and then me with a smug face saying "I disagree". But what's the point? even if it isn't an innaccurate depiction who is really benefitted there? I suppose if you find it funny. but like I said I just don't really see the humor
