Leftism and liberalism are integrated ideological movements with clear objectives and coherent plans. Conservative is just everything outside those movements that is trying to conserve something from the bulldozers of leftism and liberalism. But any particular conservative is trying to conserve some particular thing from the bulldozers. This is true even in the limited area of the United States and it means that conservatism is always relatively unfocused and uncoordinated. It this internet age it has had many "memes" but very few talking points. The inability to affix a single pejorative label on things is at least partly a result of this. Another, I think, is that very few conservatives are out for blood. They want to scare off the enemy and get back to whatever they succeeded in conserving. Leftists and liberals are out for blood. It is what they are all about.JMSmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14502377102987849260noreply@blogger.com
