    It’s because making the world better requires change and conservatives are terrified of everything, especially change.

    Go up to a conservative. Any conservative. And ask them to talk about politics. No other prompt. Just talk about politics. Don’t interrupt them for maybe 5 minutes. They’ll spend at least 95% of their time talking about fear, in some form or another. Conservatism is built upon, and maintained, by fear.
