That has nothing to do with conservatism.

Depends on the specific person. I totally agree that discrimination of minorities shouldn't be allowed. You can be conservative without being racist.

Being conservative doesn't mean you want to take away people's rights.

Being conservative learning doesn't mean you want to oppress people. It means you want less government regulation.

Also, it's basically impossible to get rid of supreme court justices, and for good reason. It allows them to rule on cases based only on what they legitimately believe to be the correct decision. The supreme court's job isn't to decide right from wrong, it's to decide legal from illegal. If you don't like their ruling, the way to change it should be through Congress, not though the courts.

It's fine to have dating preferences. The issue is when people who are just calling anyone who is conservative leaning terrible. If you don't agree with someone's political ideology, you should just respectfully disagree, not call them a terrible person.

Also, calling people evil for their options is a terribly way to convince them to change, it just makes them get really defensive. If you want to convince someone to change opinion, you need to have a respectful, insightful discussion.

I'm not a member of a political party. I vote for candidates, not parties. If you just vote for a specific party, which ever one that may be, that's lazy. I don't care if they're republican or democrat, I care about what they value.

Also, you can't really actively kick out member from a party, all you can do is just not vote for them.

I'm not calling you a bigot. I'm just saying that everyone here seems to have really extreme opinions, and hates anyone who even slightly disagrees.

Assuming someone is evil just because they like Trump is quite literally bigotry. You shouldn't hate anyone just because of their ideas. Attack actions and ideas, not people.

Why does the choice of a few select people mean that a huge number of people are now terrible?

Just because it's you agree with the right to boycott a business, doesn't mean you can't disagree with certain boycotts.

Just like how agreeing with the right to free speech doesn't mean you agree with the speech of every single person.

Or maybe because they don't have such extreme opinions like everyone here seems to think.
