Undoing all the gains made during the sexual revolution. Conservatives taking us back to the puritanical dark ages.

It's not even conservative any more. It's regressive.

These conservatives are old, so they are trying to "conserve" ideals that were out of touch in their own time

No. Conservatism has always only been about conserving aristocratic/oligarchic socio-economic power structures and establishing them where absent. Those are the only ideals they've ever had. All of the test was just a facade to pretend that their ideology has any place in a free, open, and equitable society.
