Should radical Republicans in the US acknowledge they're not Conservatives anymore?
As someone with what I think are actually pretty conservative views about some " dying Western Civilization values" like honesty in dealing with others and respect for other human beings in light of the common benefits we can all get from cooperating and compromising, I think this kind of intellectual honesty might be productive.
This Federalist piece made a lot of sense to me, even though I'm not a radical reconstructionist or a counterrevolutionary, etc.
And I feel like, with this kind of honest reflection about stuff like small vs big government, and weighing the ends and the means (or at least acknowledging the risk that some means might pose), there's room to find common interests and compromises.
