It’s easier to understand conservatives when you realize that they operate on a system of vertical morality while we operate on a system of horizontal morality. In a system of horizontal morality, something is right or wrong based on whether it causes harm, violates consent, etc regardless of the social status or class of an individual. In a system of vertical morality something is right or wrong based solely on whether an authority figure says so or not
