Typical Conservative Hypocrisy

What a hypocrite someone must be to believe in freedom of belief and expression and that anyone who disputes this on any level is a snowflake while believing that someone else's actions should be amended due to the former person's petty subjective offense.  American conservatives, including and especially evangelical "Christian conservatives," some of whom have grown increasingly emboldened by the return to power of a certain fool, almost invariably are such people.  Absolutely, as they might emphasize, feelings are irrelevant to facts; no one's feelings make anything true except that they are experiencing certain feelings.  Yet they do not mean the necessary truths rationalism stands on, as opposed to the likes of hearsay news reports, and they embrace utterly illogical ideas about everything from individual philosophical issues they treat as primarily political, rather than logical and moral (diversity, for instance).  In many ways, they do not even live consistently with their own real or professed beliefs, such as when it comes to personal freedom.

No one has the freedom to do anything logically impossible, since those things are inherently incapable of occurring no matter what.  So, conservatism's alleged tenet of freedom of belief is already incorrect.  Though some ideas are logically impossible, it is still possible for people like conservatives to still believe things that are logically false, but it is erroneous and asinine to do so—either by believing something that is demonstrably untrue or anything that is assumed, whether it is true or not.  A fully rational person would not have such beliefs.  And even if it is possible to do something, that does not make it morally permissible if good and evil exist.  Clearly, personal freedom is only valid within very exact parameters as it is.  It is never the highest part of reality or utterly unconfined.  Conservatives tend to not even really want freedom, however—not freedom for other people, that is, or more specifically, for people they dislike.  And there are all sorts of idiotic reasons they might dislike someone.

In the same breath, plenty of American conservatives might 1) chastise other people for saying or doing almost anything at all that does not involve promoting guns, conservative political philosophy/theology, and so on, even when their opponent's stance is not rooted in actual emotionalism, and then 2) react with extreme emotionalistic uproar over entirely baseless things.  Depending on the conservative, this could include such atrocities as black people (or God forbid, people from one of the many other races relatively ignored in America besides white and black!) appearing in prominent film and television roles, someone visibly showing basically any tattoo at all at their job, men having long hair, or women dying their hair blue.  Encountering a man with a mild personality or a woman who wants to be a national leader could send them into a rabid frenzy, "triggering" an onslaught of delusional statements about the supposed legitimacy of stereotypes.  Oh, how enjoyable it can be to set their own exaggerated terms against them!

Why, they might loudly preach about small government and then try to use large amounts of government resources to demonize or hurt other people for no reason but to satisfy their whims and assumptions.  As they emotionalistically lash out at a great multitude of logical facts or Biblically innocent things, they might rush to call even people who rationally point out legitimate problems, including their own errors, "snowflakes."  Who tends to be the greater "snowflake," though?  Conservatives or liberals?  Obviously, there is a distinction between hypocritical people and their ideologies (which in some cases could still be true, a separate matter altogether), but even then, conservatism is still false because truth is not about conserving traditions or societal frameworks.  It is grounded first in logical axioms and then by extension in other necessary truths.

I care (very) little to nothing about almost anyone's sensitivities.  This is due to my wholehearted embrace of genuine rationalism, not because I am conservative.  I am far from conservative, as any genuinely rational person would be.  Not being conservative does not make someone rational, though; only holding to the inherent truth of logical axioms and broader rationalism without making assumptions can.  But unlike American conservatives, I do not pretend like my subjective preferences or inclinations in any way reflect objective reality except that it is objectively true that they are my preferences and inclinations.  American conservatism has the thin facade of promoting freedom for all, but what its proponents often do is really just treat many people who are not ideologically or personally like them as lesser beings despite their conservatism itself being philosophically false anyway, looking down on them in fallacious outrage as if their conscience and whims have any philosophical authority.
