True Conservatism

By Leo Gura - March 25, 2026

I’m actually quite conservative in my attitude towards life. I always have been and it’s a major factor in my success and maturity. Being conservative is good, minus all the stupid shit. What I hate about conservatives is that they mix so much stupidity into conservative values. I can’t call myself a conservative because conservatives are so stupid and corrupt, but I actually am conservative.

Here are the good and bad parts of conservatism.

The good:

  • Hard work. Work before play. Honest labor.
  • Discipline
  • Extreme responsibility-taking, not playing victim, not making excuses
  • Self-reliance, independence, solving your own problems. Not expecting hand-outs or freebies.
  • Honesty
  • Loyalty to Truth, God, Good
  • Belief that truth exists
  • Serious attitude towards life and survival
  • Pragmatism, hyper realistic and pessimistic view of human nature. No utopian communist fantasies.
  • Rejection of decadence and frivolity. Rejection of luxury. Living a spartan lifestyle.
  • Rejection of alcohol, drugs, casual sex, partying, gambling, prostitution, sex work
  • Celibacy
  • Being conservative with finances. Not spending money you don’t have. Not wasting money on stupid things.

  • Conspiracy theories
  • Corporatism, giving corporations way too much freedom and power
  • Libertarianism, anarcho-capitalism, “free markets”
  • The insane conformity and group-think, the inability to question human social constructs
  • Mindless defending of outdated and dysfunctional traditions

  • Toxic masculinity and Fascist machismo
  • Financial gimmickry and scams
  • Hyper capitalism. Exploit and scam whoever you can. Grifting culture.

Conservatism has become so corrupt that it’s shameful to even call oneself a conservative these days. Conservatives have no understanding what true conservatism is about. True conservatism is being conservative about Truth. It’s epistemic responsibility.

I stand for all the good parts of conservatism and I denounce all the bad. All the bad is just corruption. I am truly conservative, which is why I hate conservatives. Conservatives aren’t conservative, they are conformist buffoons.

I am going to formulate an intelligent version of true conservatism, which no conservative is able to do because they are too unconscious, too conformist, too ignorant, and too corrupt. True conservatism is only possible after direct consciousness of God/Truth/Love/Good. There is not a single conservative who understands what God is.
