>Definitely a trend that socialists talk the most about helping people but conservatives are the ones you'll more likely find getting their hands dirty.

This is an incredibly dubious statement. 99% of americans are literally afraid to touch a homeless person, it's pretty pathetic.

I think it's just a little unfair to say "people are afraid to X with a Y person" when the word "Y" can be removed and the statement is still true.
Is your 99% figure hyperbole, or do you have a source for it?
It's hyperbole.
