My short assessment by way of my observation.
Liberals: Are like spoiled children. They want everything at everyone's expense, without having to share that cost and responsibilties. All at the Federal governments control.
Conservatives: Are more prone to work and provide FOR themselves and family. They usually don't mind some minor restrictions, but few. Usually Constitutionally conscience.
Libertarians: Most times, anything goes. Drugs should be all legal. Each person's responsibility to monitor themselves. Do whatever as long as you don't infringe on others.
Thats my view from here.

The answer is complex to say the least. I feel it goes deeper than politics and policy. There is something missing in many, if not most modern, successful people of the 21st century. It’s hardships of life. Struggle. Meaning. Purpose. Stuff that matters. And they scratch that itch with causes. It’s the cause that stokes a passion. Makes them feel alive. And hey, hate is what it is, but at least you know your alive. The 9-5 job, the kids soccer games, the ground hog day of existence for many is slow death. So we drink, do drugs, protest, take up a cause. Here is an example. PETA has no end game. There will never be enough done for animal rights. Meaning there will never be a time when they say, “we’ve done it, we’ve accomplished every goal, it’s over we won.” It just goes on and on. As humans we need struggle, we need obstacles to overcome. We need a fight now and then. And when life is so easy and completely comfortable you have to create something to strive for, to struggle against. Folks have timed sprinklers for their lawns, that are mowed by a lawn care company. Cars are starting to drive themselves. We have more money and spare time than ever in human history. People are bored and easily led… Your reference to PETA and the recent current events caused me to think that the people who support PETA are likely some of the same whining about abortion rights. Is that not a contradiction of the first order ? I don't care what people support but at least be consistent.

When WW2 started from the USA view, Japan attacking wasn't out of LOVE! A day later Germany (Hitler) declares war on the US! Italy came along with Germany.
What did we (ALLIES) do to stop their hate and killing? We fought back and took them to taskl. We had Cold War after. Communist efforts to derail the USA!
The same is true with the Liberal/Communist/Socialist people have to be countered by the clear thinking US people.
If any of you ever watch any old 1940-1960 movies, the issue still remains today. There are (Democrat) Communists etc. that have a Marist/Leninist agenda their trying and succeeding every day.
Look at our public school systems with the teachers union being the largest run by Communists. Some teachers are Conservative but few speak out. They get railroaded if they do.
Do some looking and research for you and your family. If your an American and want to stay that!

Help me understand why the left dislikes the conservative republicans? This is a serious question. I’m a conservative and I’m not sure why the left is so against being a conservative?? Maybe some leftist can help explain this to me??? Like I said this is a serious question and I’m not looking to start a argument but I’m wanting to know what is wrong with being a conservative??? What is it that is so wrong??? You’ll need to define "conservative republican." The current party is infected with big government loving, fiscally irresponsible, conspiracy theory hooked and authoritarian kooks. They're not Republicans. This very libertarian yet 30 year registered Republican dislikes those kooks almost as much as the radical left. Please point out by name the conservative authoritarian that you refer to . Also please point out the policies that qualify him/her as authoritarian in your opinion.

The big divide is between those who think that they should be left alone to enjoy the fruits of their own labor and those who feel entitled to the fruits of someone else's labor.

It just so happens that those lines are drawn in the city vs. rural viewpoints at this time (same as in ages past - just more pronounced now) .

Freedom is scary. Scares Big R and big D. Scares a lot of otherwise non political people also. If you start talking about peoples right to own property, ending zoning and property tax ( rent for something you "own" and permission to use it ) the what ifs start being shouted.
Can't keep the money you earn because that would mean no more welfare including farm subsidies and social security, V.A. healthcare and public education. Have to also pay tribute to foreign countries to keep their loyalty.
Would have to depend on militia to protect our country from invasion and stop interfering in the affairs of other countries
What if what if and what about what about????????????
Need to put people in prison for dug addiction so we can't keep violent criminals locked up due to lack of cells. Cant have the right to be armed because we keep turning violent people loose.
I dont understand the elinemohpees but their lifestyle doesn't threaten my liberty. Republicans that support no more property ownership and more welfare do.

It’s 100% clear that many on this thread can’t define what conservative or a liberal is. You can’t call yourself conservative and be a Trump slappy. Not possible. Add more debt than any President in history 40% increase in the national debt. I’m only 4 years. Not to mention he implemented the most aggressive government lockdowns in the history of the nation. Also was the first President to implement single payer healthcare.
I love the rabid “I’m self reliant” types. As they drive on government roads, went to public schools, drive in cars that are financed by the government, get all of their energy on government infrastructure, eat beef that graze on public lands lastly live on SSI and Medicare.
You need both groups to get ahead liberals invent and start companies conservatives run them and work in them. This is a fact. Look at all the self made billionaires almost all liberals.
To answer the first question it’s mainly a misunderstanding on what the other group believes mixed with the extremes getting over represented in media.
