Conservatism to me means to conserve this world instead of destroying G-D’s creation and to uphold the principles of justice, meaning fair and speedy trials with due process and the assumption of innocence until proven guilty. It means to call out and confront injustice when we see it without moral selectivism; to work together as a unified country towards a common good. It means to go out and help your fellow man get back onto his feet when he is in need. That and religious values. Regardless, we all live in this universe and destroying it with pollutants, destroying ecosystems, smashing justice as if it means nothing at all, and being morally selectice against bad is intolerable. We already have caused unfathomable damage through deforestation, throwing mercury in the water that poisons the fish, and hunting entire species to extinction en masse. I am just one type of conservative though… there are many other types! I will list them later.

Now tell me, what do you think conservatism is? Let me know down below! Good faith answers only.

      I do not particularly push my morals on others if others do not push their morals on me. And if they do, I still will not push my morals on them, but I will defend my moral-system unless someone gives me a valid reason backed up by neutral data to show me why I am wrong. Being open to change and hearing others out is an important thing.
