Traditionalists

Traditionalists don't usually want to go "back", they usually just want to slow the rate of forward. Traditionalists don't really want to go "back", they usually just want to slow the rate of forward. So they don't want segregation or slavery... but they do want less government, or the lefts latest cause du jour or social program. Change has consequences. And while the left refuses to remember that, the right tends to not want to repeat past mistakes. ℹ️ Info           ~ Aristotle Sabouni Created: 2018-07-16

Some measure left/right versus "Forward/Backward" direction of progress. Leftist is hope and change, versus rightism is a return to our roots (Making America Great Again). But even most traditionalists don't want to go back, most just want to slow the rate of going forward. Ask the most ardent conservative in America if they want to bring back segregation or slavery and they'll look at you like you're a CNN watcher: of course not. They just understand that most change comes with unintended consequences that can make things worse, especially when that change is unvetted emotional appeals by the far left. So true traditionalists are rare, most "Conservatives" are moderate modernists.
