funding sources should be investigated. It would be appropriate for The People to know how much 'overseas' funding they receive and how much that funding influences what they do and say. Conservatism is a zero sum ideology and the catalyst for the extremists on the right. Conservatism provides the justification for bigotry, racism, antisemitism, misogyny and every other detestable belief on the right. Conservative institutions, churches, think tanks and every other conservative organization is little more than a propaganda pushers. It's the drug that gets them off. I do not include those who are compassionate, empathetic and sincere and see no reason to shove their beliefs down people's throats.
