The Silly Ideas We Still Standby
By: Freiheit (Diary) | May 31st at 11:54 PM |
The philosophy of conservatism as defined by dictionaries declares it to be a disposition towards preserving the established status quo and advocating for the gradual change of policies. I’ve never liked that definition. While it is true that many traditionalists idolize the golden days of the past, this does not preclude conservatives advocating for the advancement of society.
