I asked them to clarify what Dems were conserving.

Wikipedia: Right-wing politics is the range of political ideologies that view certain social orders and hierarchies as inevitable, natural, normal, or desirable…

They didn’t confirm that Dems are conserving ‘certain social orders and hierarchies’. Did they not confirm that because they’d immediately show themselves to be wrong? Or am I just so clueless about what right wing politics is that I am not worth educating?

    The overwhelming majority of Democrats are not conservative. We care what words mean. We’re pushing for lesser evils, because we want… less evil. In 2014, getting any healthcare reform was better than none, so in an effort to minimize conflict, we tried meeting Republicans where they allegedly were. They were just lying.

    This is an important lesson. The Republicans hated Obamacare even though it was - as far as I heard - substantially the same as their plan.
