I’m always confused by the conservative christian political position until I remember that part in the bible where Jesus definitely said “Help your others… unless its socialism because thats bad.” /s

Conservatives think that assistance to the less fortunate should come from charity instead of the government.
Mainly because this gives them direct power over people: they can indoctrinate people and control poor people when the threat is starvation and homelessness.

I think it’s more like they want to decide who’s deserving of charity.

Yeah, the overwhelming majority of them don’t actually believe that.
