Now if you are talking about action vs belief and specifically R's and D's rather than Conservative/Lib, the leadership and representatives on both sides are trash, but Conservatives vs. Liberal/Progressives is easy ( It really isn't a party thing, just the Venn diagram of conservatives includes more R's)


Returning to traditional values

Celebrating normalcy OVER abnormalcy (ie. nuclear family vs single mom, celebrating not tranny vs. tranny etc.) rather than denigrating normalcy or laughing at moral ideals

Striving for the ideal rather than dragging everyone the lowest common denominator (not dumbing down, removing math and other requirements for learning, desiring people try to remain chaste outside of marriage rather than throwing in the towel and encouraging indulgence, ... among other things)

Putting individual responsibility over government responsibility (you waste your paycheck, that's on you, no UBI)

not killing babies

not peddling/condoning drug abuse via the govt.


The simple fact is, Conservatism can exist on it's own in any context regardless if everyone succeeds. Liberalism fails without an oppressed or underprivileged class to coddle and take personal accountability away from-- there are no policies left if everyone succeeds.

I meant common people. This is a elitist/political class problem and usually has been in history. They start the wars they don't fight in, they collapse the economy every 7 to 11 years so they can buy.property and businesses for pennys on the dollar. They direct this catastrophy and the people are beginning to wake up.
