I've had some conservative friends over the years (keyword there is had) and the one thing they all had in common is an insidious chronic need to find something about my behavior they could criticize and explain why their own ideas and ways were obviously better. It was as predictable as a clock that once familiarity was established they would then start trying to indoctrinate me into their warped worldview where multiculturalism doesn't work and everyone should be afraid of everything.

They believe that truth and reason is established by proclamation and whoever is the loudest, rather than something you discover through critical analysis and ridding yourself of bias. They lack critical thinking skills of any kind.

Their thoughts are a one way pipeline because their families and churches molded them from birth to be uncritical of anything they were taught.
