Dan Crenshaw put together what we think is a fairly spectacular thread aka a Conservative Guide to the Culture Wars and honestly, this should be something we share with anyone and everyone who doesn’t really get conservatism. Truly. The next time some yahoo says, ‘But what are you conserving,’ send them this thread.
Trust us.
The Conservative Guide to the Culture Wars (in no particular order):
1. America is worthy of our love and patriotism.
2. Victor mentality is better than a victim mentality.
3. Free speech is absolute. “Hate speech” is not an objective term.

America is worthy of our love and patriotism.
Amen to all of this.
4. It doesn’t matter what kind of gun you restrict, criminals still hurt people. Let us protect ourselves.
5. You get to keep wealth you create & pass it to your kids.
6. The govt has no right to shut down your business or invade your home without due process, even in pandemics

You get to keep wealth you create and pass it to your kids.
Common sense, yes?
7. Women should not have to compete against men in women’s sports.
8. Verifying ID to vote is not racist. It is common sense.
9. Borders and national sovereignty are not racist or xenophobic.

WOMEN SHOULD NOT HAVE TO COMPETE AGAINST MEN IN WOMEN’S SPORTS.
How this is even something up for debate is beyond us.
10. You can’t have freedom without order, order without law, law without morality, morality without religion, or religion without God.

All of this.
Winner winner chicken dinner.
11. Innocent until proven guilty – not the other way around.
12. Personal responsibility is a virtue.
13. Never give into cancel culture (but stay humble and apologize when you’re wrong).

Innocent until proven guilty.
So many people have forgotten that one.
14. The founding was 1776, not 1619.
15. Stand for the anthem.
16. Policy that favors one race over another is not “social justice,” it is racist.
17. It’s *Latinos*, not Latinx.

YES!
18. Less abortion, more adoption.
19. Only women can be pregnant and breastfeed.
20. It’s ok to lose in competitive sports, and second place trophies don’t help anyone (but also see # 7).
— Dan Crenshaw (@DanCrenshawTX) February 11, 2021
Less abortion, more adoption.
21. More police, not defund the police.
22. We don’t tear up the past, we learn from it.
23. This list is not exhaustive.
