The people that fall for this shit are brainless morons looking to “own the libs” (meaning anyone that has an education and/or is smarter than they are) because what they want is “woke”. So not doing what the “libs” want - even if the morons benefit from what the “libs” want - is fighting wokeness and therefore, doubleplusgood.

Yes, it really is that fucking stupid if you talk to some of them.

Meanwhile, the elite in the conservative movement that push this kind of thing probably own lots of interest in companies dealing with energy. No, they won’t be cutting the morons in on the profits, either.
