    No different than liberals, then.

    Liberals can be conservatives. Opposite of conservatives are reformists.

    All institutionalized political power is violently anti-democratic

    Is voting anti-democratic? Because voting is political institution of democracy.

      All conservatives are liberals - that is, until they cross over into fascism territory. The people that get called “conservative” in the US do not disagree with liberalism in any fundamental way - they still believe in basic liberal ideas such as the fetishization of private property, capitalism, the (so-called) “free market,” and the ever-present “rule of law” (as dictated by a liberal, capitalist elite).

      North Korea has voting. Apartheid South Africa had voting. I don’t see any liberals falling over themselves to describe those societies as “democratic” simply because of that… yet the one you exist in must be so simply because your media and your political racketeers told you it is?

      The bar for what counts as democracy or not is so damn low you need a deep-sea submersible just to see it.
