What do you think conservatives are trying to "conserve"? Because it ain't nature.
As I mentioned, the status quo. So basically the average Joe that doesn't care much either way, isn't gonna hate or support, but also not apathetic. Basically people who just want stability, not fascism (which is inherently unstable in that it perpetuates a state-led chaos and terror).
As for nature, the whole "X is UnNattural" is nonsense fabricated by religious fundamentalists, tbh. Nature is wilder than whatever they can cook up.
The status quo of systemic white supremacy and the patriarchy... So... fascists.
I've seen lots of people lately attempting to distance conservatism from MAGA, and I'm sorry but it has failed. You need to extricate yourself from the hateful ideology that you (presumably) subscribe to.
One can distinguish the two while adhering to neither.
Yes but it seems that the people with the most interest in distancing the two are embarrassed conservatives
