Isn't the point of "conservatives" to tear everything down? Because then they just elected the right man for that.
That's an accelerationist or a nihilist. If the status quo is pro-immigration and pro-LGBT rights, wanting to keep this status quo will make you a "conservative" because you want to conserve the status quo.
They're reactionaries.

Nah that's just how they look from a sane individual's perspective. They think they're helping, it would be cute if it wasn't so fucking sad.
This though. People love to harp about the good ole days but leave out that the good ole days were good cause only cishet white men could participate in the economy
