    I don’t think it is wrong for people seeing that they were in the wrong: so long as they are taking the steps to acknowledge they were part of that problem.

    I would agree, but that’s not what’s happening here.

    The problem with Hannity, with Carlson and with so many other conservative pundits, is that while they wave the American flag and claim to pledge allegiance to it, their actions see them put American Conservatism over America itself. And they do this consistently.

    Hannity is addressing a smaller, much more localised symptom to avoid addressing the real problem: that American Conservatism isn’t reflecting the will of the people and subjugates more people to unnecessary suffering than it helps, by a long shot.

    American Conservatism needs a complete fucking overhaul, not some piecemeal we-need-to-lighten-up speech.
