They have values they're just not logically or morally consistent with reality.

Their values are ridiculously consistent, they're just shit:

  • Red team good.
  • Blue team scum of the earth.

I mean morally consistent like being pro life but also pro death penalty and pro war but then again vote down any VA funding. Family values and rapingb kids, etc...

It really is just as simple as that.

Actually, they are quite consistent; it’s just that one, they never say outright what it is, instead always talking around their ideas; because, two, we find it absolutely reprehensible (and they know it).

But it is quite simple:

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

-Wilhoit’s Law

Look at it through that lens, and you’ll see that they have never shifted their position. Their whole lives revolve around making this law a reality, and making sure they are in the in-group.
