If you were to automate it, it would no longer be conservative.
To automate is to remove choice... to ensure a certain outcome... to convert from manual to machine operation.
So, Here’s a few synonymous questions for you...
How do you automate morality?
or... How do you force freedom? (Where does freedom come from again?)
and finally... How can God “automate” people so they will love Him?
It’s fun to get an action figure to stand up on it’s own.
You position the legs and arms right.
You find a flat enough surface.
Then you adjust here and there for any unexpected imperfections.
You pull your hands away but it tumbles over.
So you start again.
Reposition.
Fix that angle.
Get the head tilted right.
Many attempts.
Many falls.
Eventually you pull your hands away and it stays up!
Then you sigh in satisfaction and step back to admire.
This is automated conservatism.
Standing up on your own.
IMO, the problem isn’t in needing to automate conservatism insomuch as it’s a problem in de-automating social justice media censorship and suppression of conservative thought.
Figure out how to destroy THEIR algorithms, triggers, censorship and suppression and then you’ve got something. Otherwise, it’s still gonna be a battle of individual conservatives thinking on their feet and attacking the problem in ways their automation cannot address.... just my opinion.
Subsequently conditions will be such that in order to survive and rebuild, the typical citizen will automatically turn to conservatism.
Once upon a time there was a forest. In the forest were hills and trees and grass and a river. And then there was this one pine tree. He stands up straight without any help from the other trees, and he’s happy. He‘s busy doing the photosynthesis thing in the sun, the tap root thing in the water, and when the wind blows he dances.
One day he looks around and beside him he sees another tree. He says to her, “Hey look at you standing there. You do all that yourself?” She answers, “Yeah, I do the sun thing and I do the water thing and when the wind blows I dance - like this.” Admiringly, he says to her, “Well look at you! You seem happy.” She says, “Yup.”
He says, “You know, I never noticed you before. How long you been standing there?” She stops dancing and looks at him and says, “You dummy, I’ve been here the whole time!” Then he says, “Oh...” Then the wind blew. And they danced together. And they were happy. And they stood in the forest without any help from the other trees.
An amendment that stipulates that before any bill can become a new law, five old laws must first be repealed.
An amendment that stipulates that the national capitol will rotate to new states and regions every year. You must be a rootless vagabond for the power, pay and benefits of a fed employee. Let every state and area take their turn treading water with that boat anchor.

Have folks write a check for their Taxes/FICA/etc. every two weeks...
They have to continually be educated on this.
Why?
Because the Left never stops trying to indoctrinate.
You ever go back in time and try to warn people of a disaster, but nobody ever listens to you? Everybody's like, ya ya, the disaster - wacko! And they continue with what they're doing unconcerned. Regardless of all your running around, it's like history is gravity and it can only go one way.
Like Desmond from LOST said, "You can't change it. You can't change it! No matter what you try to do."
So. In what ways do you think we could automate conservatism?

Well, just the word “conservatism” maybe needs to change. There is baggage with the word. Look at your name “progressiveAmerica.” That implies something new, more advanced, whereas conservatism suggest things that are old and out dated for many people. That the perception part. The reality part is that being a conservative is actually being a rebel (what a contradiction) in America. Being a real rebel, and not Hollywood’s glamorized notion of a rebel. But again the name conservative conjures up all kinds of negative associations that goes against America’s love of the NEW.
If I can think of any single obstacle to overcome in today’s political climate, it’s confirmation bias.
So, in addition to apolitical mentoring of students, which I’ve been doing for the last nine years (with a focus on personal empowerment and development of a clear sense of causality in the world around them), I will focus this year on curricular development, especially in history, language, grammar and economics with clear, honest content aligned around a common set of logic-based analytical tools (and all that with precise use of the third-person plural pronoun...).
Having taught high school for 10 years, I know that the most students are ill-equipped to identify reality, as they are not taught logic, causality, and distinction. For example, the 1619 Project cannot stand if scrutinized with simple regression analysis. I have seen students completely change their minds on a social or political topic — topics, not outlooks, as confirmation bias is never defeated in a single blow — when employing logic-based and not persuasion-based analysis. My goal is to build standard curricula around these tools.
Any time we can help someone see a situation or topic logically we make the world that much less imperfect.
I’m having trouble with “automate” used here. Are we talking “animation by electro-mechanical means”?
