Toni Aittoniemi<p>Conservatism is about giving up:</p><p>- It's giving up that things can ever be better for us, without the powerful being more and better first.<br>- It's giving up that people already in power can ever be removed.<br>- It's giving up that people can ever be equal, and instead betting on yourself as a member of the dominant team.<br>- It's giving up that we deserve better, and hunkering down on begging for scraps in a more efficient manner instead.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/conservatism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>conservatism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>politics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/inequality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inequality</span></a></p>
