Conservatism is harmful. It always has been.
In all of human history, nothing good has ever come from conservatism. Nothing. There is simply no place in a modern culture for harmful, regressive, hate-based ideologies like conservatism.
Yep. Conservatism is the antithesis of progress
By definition.
it's almost like we should do something about it instead of waiting for the government to do something about it.
it's almost like the world is on a collision course with a giant metaphorical iceberg while we stand idly by and do nothing.
it's almost like any amount of carnage and destruction would be better than a future in which we continue to let morons have a hand in guiding our society.
Nahhh. Don't look up.
I miss when conservatives tried to conserve things like national parks (i.e. Teddy Roosevelt) instead of using conservatism as a mask for racism.
It's like, it seems appropriate for a two party system to have one party push for progress, while the other advises caution. But they dropped the euphemism and have been just blatantly racist/xenophobic/anti-other for far too long to pretend now that conservatism is anything else.
