LIt is a kind of catch all, but definitely a code word for ‘I like a lot about conservatism, but I can’t stand those knuckle dragging Christian people, and their social conservatism’.

What's the catch-all for "big government moralists"?

I'm not aware of any such thing, I do know that 200 years ago the lynch crowd for someone pushing the homosexual agenda, abortion, decadence, and so on, would have been very large. Being incredibly, religiously conservative is how we kept the government small.

Government growth and libertarian/leftist discovery of new "rights" seem to have gone hand in hand for the last 60 years plus.

“Ultimately, the tragic consequence of the libertarian mentality is that it guarantees the left’s victory in the battle for civilization.”
