      They don't see a connection between these things because they literally conceive of politics as a manifestation of personal virtue. If you've fallen to sin you get the punishment you deserve, and also every political problem is the result of sinful people. Therefore you resolve all political problems by punishing sin to deter sinning.

      Conservatives, like republican voters not the politicians and donors who are making money off of these things, have a dog brained Hamurabi-ass view of the law that it's a list of things that are good and things that are bad. Arguing with them makes it feel like ur going nuts because u run into this every five seconds, like the Patrick wallet même.
