So the original conservatives were right and we lost our maturity by allowing society to 'progress'?
It's more of a contrarianism thing. They hate liberalism (by liberalism I mean not the modern moderate-conservatism/neoliberalism, but the foundation ideology of our democracies) more than anything, and they temporarily adjust their ideology to appear more counter-cultureish. See their sudden pro-pornography and pro-female objectification shift when the first gamergate happened, their anti-porn activism moved to more pseudo-secular orgs like NCOSE and Collective Shout. They started to shift back to anti-porn during the Vaush folder-reveal drama, and even faster after the second Trump victory.
