MODERATORS
Conservatives only know how to do one thing while governing which is to close their eyes, turn off their headlights, press the gas pedal and dare the road to swerve as they hurtle ahead into the darkness with no clue what is going to happen.
Ironic we call them "conservatives".
The only thing "conservatives" ever conserve, ever have conserved, or ever even intended to conserve, is hierarchical power. Conservatism only happens to line up with "preserving that which currently exists" in the sense that, when conservatism was initially developed, the system that currently existed was monarchy.
Make no mistake: under any system but monarchy/dictatorship, "conservatives'" single purpose will always be to transform it into monarchy/dictatorship as switftly, radically, and even recklessly as they can possibly manage.
There could be scary things out there in the dark, let's just pretend they're not there :)
They’re called conservatives because they should all be in conservatorships. That being the case, I think they should be called asylumists.
