There's nothing wrong with conserving. There's everything wrong with whatever the fuck people who call themselves conservatives today are.
Hello yes I would like to conserve the planet.
Nah when faced with crises there is something wrong with conserving the status quo. Never mind that modern conservatives are actually regressives who want to undo past progress.
You're describing conservationists, not conservatives.
No, I mean there's nothing wrong with conserving non-harmful tradition, ideals, etc.. It becomes an issue when that conservation hinders progress, or hurts people, the environment, or animals.
