A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I don't think conservatism is about being rational it's about maintaining tradition or maybe morality, however it was defined by the previous generation.
Conservatism is about absolute control by any means necessary
Conservatism is about making it illegal for the rest of the world to exist in a manner other than the one that you personally want it to.
I feel like you don't actually know that and it's just your opinion.
