THE OPTIONS FOR CONSERVATIVES ARE NARROW FOR OBVIOUS REASONS

In the past I’ve said, ‘Conservatives have nothing to sell, only a necessity of defense”, because progressives sell irresponsibility (discount) and conservatives sell responsibility (cost), and since most people have a higher-shorter time preference, they will favor the progressive consumption now, at the cost of conservative capitalization and its benefits later.

This is why you can’t solve the problem of ‘selling’ conservatism unless there is a catastrophic collapse from the accumulated consumption of capital instead of continued production of it. (particularly because of the distorting effects of the overproduction of elites and the overconcentration of capital through rent seeking.

Ergo, there are two criteria for reform: either seize the opportunity of a collapse event, or create the opportunity for power assertion. The optimum is to use both simultaneously. And that looks like what is happening.

Progressive = hyperconsumption (herd, female)
Conservative = hypercapitalization (tribe, male)

These are the correct terms. Because they describe the sortition of political bias into their biological (and physical) origins.
