No idea why you think I’m being condescending, please explain so I can avoid giving that impression in the future. I’m just explaining something that you seemed to have missed in your original comment.

Talking to someone at their level doesn’t mean talking to them like they’re a child. It means stopping to think about where that person is coming from and using that to more effectively make your point. Empathy is an incredibly useful skill when you’re trying to communicate with someone, especially someone with very different beliefs from you.
So why not just tell them conservatives accomplished all of those things? If we’re just trying to make them feel good, and giving credit to people who had nothing to do with it, why not just reinforce their bias?
