They say that, but they are liars. Liberals who typically want to conserve the standing social and economic order are the real conservatives.

What the conservatives actually are is reactionaries.

For the record, I’m not saying that because I’m a liberal, which I’m not. I don’t want to conserve the social or economic orders.

It’s about maintaining the status quo. Keeping the rich rich and the poor poor because “hey it’s worked great so far!”
