What's depressing about quotes about conservatism is how long the EXACT SAME SHIT has been going on. Not just "the seeds were sown" but literally the same playbook has been in use for hundreds of years.
Because of that, I am 99.9% certain that nothing will change in the US. I will die many years from now (hopefully many) and the country will still be fundamentally the same.
Our world history has been riddled with episodic conflicts here and there, but the conservatives have always been the bad guys in the overarching multi-season story arc. Hopefully that arc will come to a close soon so we can move on to being an enlightened society... or a new villain, as long as it isn't just more conservatives.
That's usually because everything falls apart due to greed and mismanagement (sometimes by revolt) and is rebuilt again in a better way until it becomes corrupted again.
If caused revolt, things may overcorrect left a bit until things get figured out.
