Lots of Americans are socially conservative and highly religious but not economically conservative. Most are Protestants not Catholics, but it's otherwise a very common attitude. More common than people who are economically conservative and socially liberal.

I read Hillbilly Elegy and it's one of the reasons I'm a braindead moron now, real mind killing stuff.

Essentially he spends a couple hundred pages describing harrowing social deprivation (only white people count, but whatever), and then in the end he lands on his own unique version of Bootstraps Theory as a solution. It sucks poo poo

There's also the media's obsession with casting him as a genius hillbilly whisperer. I remember some podcast that caught an article about what a brave and noble soul he was for staying Applachia even after he got rich, acting like living in a major city in Ohio was the same as living in the holler.

Like I understand these trailers cut together multiple lines to make new ones that don't happen in the movie. But why is it always so badly done? You'd think a bajillion dollar ad campaign could afford a little bit more for the sound editing.

It's not really a weird position for a traditionalist catholic, since it's a doctrine that places a huge weight on charitable work and supporting the poor, as well as being very socially conservative vis-a-vis gay people and evil heathens and like, disco music or whatever else riles up old catholic people. It's probably easier to think of it as socialism with bigotry added to it rather than a right-wing person who hates Reaganomics.

I like it when you get the very Catholic dem politicians in blue areas that personally oppose abortion and gay marriage but know that they will not get reelected if they say that so they just keep their head down and tow the party line on those issues.

No, but seriously, who asked for this? I liked the first couple seasons and then got bored and quit watching. I've heard very few positive things about the later seasons and the finale is one of the dumbest of all time. It seems like this is just picking up from the last episode, which retroactively makes it even worse.

Yeah, the downer ending of the Trinity Killer season would've been a legendary place to just end the series.

The implications of that guy mentioning Guardians of the Galaxy and the sum of his experiences is driving me up the wall.
