“I don’t know about lazy. Conservatives are just, by definition, not looking for control over other people. Leftists are always scheming, plotting, inventing ways to destroy and control.”
There is some truth to the notion that conservatives by nature are not looking to control other people.
However there is also an aspects of laziness and/or lack of courage on their part since they have shown very little pushback against people who are trying (and succeeding) to control their (conservatives) lives.
We have just knuckled under. And that’s the result of laziness and lack of interest and courage to effectively fight back.
Bottom line - the left is willing to fight for their beliefs more than we are willing to fight for ours.
The 64k question is, “What, if anything, is going to change that equation?”

The critical question indeed. Just keep doing what we've always done isn't going to cut it.
My biggest pet peeve is the issue of local offices and races for local control. The left ALWAYS focuses on these and, as a result, often capture city governments, county governments, and school boards due to conservative apathy, even in conservative states and regions. Leftists win by conservatives forfeiting a game they wouldn't show up for.
