Conservatives gonna conserve.
Conserve what? Certainly not the environment, human rights, common decency or democratic traditions. So, what else?
For the elites: conserve their hierarchy and the structures that enable the gradual accumulation of power in the hands of the few.
For the rest: conserve their place in the hierarchy and the comfort of the familiar.
