Cognitive dissonance.
They see conservatives as “the bad guys” so obviously none of the ideas they hold are conservative because they are “the good guys.”

The people out in the real world who want to treat fiction and artwork are the same as real pedophilia and incest are politically conservative.
The people who have political power who want to use that power to censor media to “protect children” want to censor queer media because they say that “pedophiles” will use it for “grooming.”
By calling people who write fiction and create art “pedophiles” and “groomers” and calling for the censorship of artwork you are allying yourself with christofascist, anti-queer, conservatives.
When you call people who write fiction and create art “pedophiles” and “groomers” you are giving power to the people who want to use the fear of pedophiles and groomers as an excuse to wipe out queer people.
The anti-abortion, anti-trans, pro-trump conservative christian agrees with fancops. Not shocking.
And yet antis say not to compare them with conservatives…
