Adoctrinamiento puro y duro: hábleme del expolio del fondo de la biblioteca del Escorial durante los siglos en que cualquier cortesano podía pasar por allí a llevarse lo que habían respectado los incendios, mucho antes de la Desamortización, o de todo lo que el "bando nacional" expolió, incluso a los que les apoyaron durante la guerra, y durante décadas después de 1939, para que hoy pueda usted venirnos a hablar de todos los tesoros que conserva la zona azul de Ejpanya.


Pero, sobre todo, hábleme de todos los tesoros que la dejadez y el hambre hidalga castellana ha malvendido, que es decir regalar, al extranjero, sobre todo a los nuevos ricos estadounidenses, cuando no se trata de arte que han destruido los mismos interesados para aprovechar los materiales que les podía ayudar a prolongar su miseria, antes de que los rojos tuvieran oportunidad de decidir si destruirlo o respetarlo.


Que me venga a justificar una barbarie como una guerra civil por la barbarie de los quemaiglesias republicanos en base a sus mismo revanchismo pretendidamente "defensivo" y "justiciero" demuestra hasta qué punto la mezquindad de la miseria moral puede corromper lo que a primera vista podría parecer un razonamiento de lo más sensato, veraz y decente.


A los salvapatrias del terror blanco nunca les ha importado destruir el arte y la cultura con violencia cuando les pudiera interesar, porque saben que cuentan con una caterva de sectarios dispuestos a comulgar con ruedas de molino que llevan grabado "terror rojo".


Usted mismo reconoce que habla en base a prejuicios: "sé que voy a encontrar": si realmente viajara, y con los ojos bien abiertos, su ciego sectarismo se llevaría una desagradabilísima sorpresa paseando por grandes santuarios del arte religioso aun en el corazón de la España más roja.

Si alguna vez unos desfallecidos de hambre fracasados o, directamente, sin oficio ni beneficio, vienen a pedir tu voto para "salvar España", considera qué rapiña te van a cobrar como pago por acabar con tu temor a que alguna vez pudiera venir el hombre del saco rojo a llevarse o quemar lo que era tuyo.

Conservatism is the toxic and despicable religion of the hate of others as the love for oneself: it teaches the belittling of other ethnicities as love for one's own, the hate of criticism as love for one's country, Western propaganda as Western history and gender roles, attitudes and masks as the true nature of people.

That's not conservatism, that's reactionarism. Conservatism is best summed up by a phrase from Paul of Tarsus: examine everything, and keep what is good.

No: reactionarism is the negation of all to which conservatism helplessly opposes

You are most right about the true definition of conservatism, but since it is a term misappropriated by "right-wing" extremists, and since I was referencing the misrepresentation of progressivism (which is merely what ultimately pushes conservatism to "examine everything"), by a certain Matt Walsh (not the actor), everything stands, remains correct

All true, unfortunately. One trend that I've seemed to notice, but I've never heard anyone talk about, is how many Americans are dropping out of the work world entirely. In other words, nobody is working who doesn't absolutely have to. People are retiring early, cashing out their pensions, living on inheritance, not working if their spouse makes enough, living on disability, social security, etc., adult children are living with their parents-- any way you can do it, it's being done. Many can't even find work, and if they do, it's long hours, low pay, no benefits, disrespect and abuse from their employers. Who needs that?

People are not necessary to create wealth anymore, because even work, let alone jobs, are not needed to provide it...

It's about time again baby.

Somebody described the situation in rich developed countries as an endless dance of musical chairs of affordable housing and somewhat paying employment.
