The Reason the "Conservative" Movement

was bound to fail was because its ideology is corrupt at its core.

Moreover, social Darwinism had already been discredited with the Great Depression. This country had already seen the fruit of "conserativism" in the early twentieth century, which was the era of the robber barons. The only difference between then and now is the increased power of the theocrats, but the theocrats are less about religion and more about political power anyway.

It wasn't going to work. Besides, the "movement" never represented anywhere near a majority of voters. That's why the radical right had to resort to election fraud, redistricting, and other schemes to try and retain power.
