to be abundantly clear, i'm probably more of a radical socialist than most of y'all, and that post was mostly made in jest but also i wish we'd see some sensible people reclaim the term "conservative" for opinions that are actually conservative and not just hateful.

used to be that conservatives wanted to actually conserve stuff, like nature and the welfare of their society.

I don't think conservative has ever meant the environment. It's about conserving the status quo. At this point the party should be renamed to regressives.
