It’s right there in the name: conservative.

Conserving what? The status quo, the way things have always been, the systems that created the winners and oppressions of the past.

Absolutely right not to trust them if you’ve found yourself and your people on the bottom of the wheel. I recognize my own privilege, and I can see that they will happily throw me under the bus too, just to stay on top.
