Over history there has always been competition between progressivism and conservatism. Progressivism has always lead to more advanced technological development, but led also to nihilism and dying off due to losing purpose and goals. Conservatism is the opposite. It stifles technological development but leads more to happiness and fulfillment by having instinctive goals that have always worked in making people happy over time.
I don't believe one should exclude the other. We should learn from both.

It's hard to paint fine lines with shit.
Conservatism only leads to happiness for people near the top of the social hierarchy. It relies on having a large underclass.
Maybe back when conservative meant union jobs and strong families, sure. But that's a long time gone. Everyone is struggling now.

I'd rather not know what comes in life, than not knowing how to get the money for buying my family out of hell
Yeah, I feel that.
