u/themeatbridge is right about conservatism being a void of ideology. Their only ethic is hierarchy. And their only goal is to oppose movements that disrupt that hierarchy. That's why their called reactionaries.

'The Reactionary Mind' by Robin is a decoder ring for how the right thinks. Not perfect, but eye-opening.
