No, conservative is pretty simple, it is liberals who want to try and pretend that someone can be a traditional, conservative American while accepting things that would have gotten them lynched and thrown into asylums in the past, things like abortion on demand, homosexualizing the military, “gay marriage” legalizing and openly advertising Sodom and Gomorrah debauchery etc.

That is what liberals would *pretend* conservatives are like “from the outside”, that they are, weirdly enough, monolithic and “radical”, as ridiculous as that sounds, for opposing liberal-radical change. “Radical” for wanting the status quo or less.

But within conservatism, it is an entirely different picture. Conservatives do not drive people who disagree with one of our ideas out of our ranks, unlike liberals who demand lock-step obedience from all on their side. This is because conservatives debate and argue ideas, but once liberals decide on something, there must be unanimous agreement or the “disbelievers” are “heretical” and expelled. Belief must be absolute, until they order it changed.
