Isn’t conservatism about keeping things the same? What you said sounds more like normal human groupism/corruption
Keep things the same like queer people in the closet, women in the kitchen, and people of color in poverty. Not like 1950s top marginal tax rates.
These days what it boils down to is an nostalgia for suffering of a bygone era.
It’s a pretense that is used when it is convenient.
