I don’t know what this means really. What would be your definition of a conservative? I generally take issue with any mainstream democrat-republican comparisons because I find them to be nothing more than a distraction. It’s much more clear for me to parse between establishment or non-establishment politicians based on career history and voting history. I realize this forum is extremely mainstream friendly and I never expect wild ideas like that to make sense or track here but it’s generally my lens for viewing political ideas and actors. It seems many mainstream voters become extremely agitated and even perhaps scared when the sanctity of the two party paradigm is called into question. Must be a boomer comfort thing. They would almost rather watch the world explode and the younger generations OD or live in shipping crates than be even mildly inconvenienced by change.
