That's a new one. Did you know that liberalism began as a reaction to the Catholics & Protestants slaughtering each other all over Europe? Hence separation of private and public sphere. Separation of church and state. And if I had to guess the ones doing the killing were probably more conservative than progressive.
Anyways your whole premise is false. You're still speaking from a paradigm where liberalism = progressivism and therefore in opposition to conservatism. But that's not true. One can have a conservative disposition and still support liberalism.
Also, be honest, by "conservative pragmatism" do you really mean fascism?
And likewise one can have a liberal disposition and support conservatism ( because i have aspirations for my children beyond....nothing, just nothing man)
"Did you know that liberalism began as a reaction to the Catholics & Protestants slaughtering each other all over Europe? Hence separation of private and public sphere."
Enlightenment-era propaganda. Nearly 3 centuries later and Voltaire is still racking in those gullible idiots. Fascinating.
