    The right has done nothing but contract for the past 150 years. “Conservatives” have continually met leftists in the middle and conserved nothing. In my country even the state church allows gay and female clergy now. I’m not a christian, but that’s the perfect example of the Right relenting even in their supposedly most sacred institution (though I suppose the bank has taken over that role for conservatives of the past century). Meanwhile, the Left has expanded at such a rate that the revolutionaries of two generations ago sound like today’s reactionaries.
