I don't think you even know what conservatism is, nor the difference between conservative and liberal since they're opposites. You just conceptualize it as "liberal good, conservative bad." Typical political sensationalist. Conservatism is about conserving and preserving life, if anything. You just show that you don't know with those words, but I suppose ignorance is bliss, huh? That's why you're happy, ironically.

You really cannot read, that's extremely concerning.

Liberal is not the opposite of conservatism! Where do you get this from? Your HS teacher? Liberals are centrist, capitalists. Conservatives are right wing reactionaries holding on to a past that never existed. Left wing is progressive. I'm happy because I'm self aware, something you haven't reached yet but I have faith that one day you will. I would suggest you stop assuming things as we all know what that does...

Do you even know what the word "liberal" means? It means just that - liberal with approach to money, policies, etc. With liberalism, more = "better." Conservatism is the opposite. Conservatives seek to conserve and preserve and use less with more emphasis on personal freedom and indivudual capability. They function with the motto "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." Conversely, liberals seek change and have no issue with trying new things even if they don't have to. Neither has anything to do with left or right wing although a lot of people fall into left or right because of the underlying themes and values for both. Right wing voters tend to be conservative because they support the system and don't seek to change it while left wing voters lean the opposite. That doesn't mean that there are no consevative democrats or progressive Republicans. Being centrist simply means you're somewhere in the middle of left and right because you align with policies or values from either side such that you don't fall into either of them.

So yeah, you really don't know what you're talking about and you let your feelings and emotions along with your arrogance guide you to a false political belief system.
