| It's just forcing US culture on everyone in the world. Also see Meta deleting IG posts and banning people based on US politics / morals. |

| Americans have changed/reversed a lot of political definitions including conservative/liberal. |

| ▲ | ben_w an hour ago | parent [-] | | In the original sense, a "conservative" was someone who avoided change and only made it after careful consideration. Chesterton's fence is a commonly given example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Chesterton%27s_fence The word "conservative" is currently being applied to the Republican party, who are reforming the US as hard and fast as they can manage, without careful consideration. A "move fast and break things" approach is about as un-conservative as one can be. |
