    The central tenet of conservatism, whether they’re consciously aware of it or not, is a belief in hierarchies. There is a stratification to society that must be maintained, which of course manifests a king or oligarchy at the top.

    Men are above women.

    The rich are above the poor.

    Whites are above everyone else.

    They don’t care about religion or nationality except as tools to maintain that hierarchy.
