PSEUDO-CONSERVATIVE/LIBERAL ANTAGONISM
By the definitions in the common vernacular as a generality, it can be said that Pseudo-conservatives are antagonistic to Liberals, who call themselves Progressives. And Liberals are antagonistic to Conservatives, who are in actuality also Progressive. The antagonism between the Pseudo-conservative and Liberal springs fundamentally from the difference between the Additory Base as the Antithetical Matrix, and the Subtractive Base, or Metaphysical Ideal and Extra Mundane Authority. The Pseudo-conservative identifies with the elite and thus has the propensity to assess value more by subtracting from the top than from adding from below. The Subtractive Base of the Pseudo-conservative, is anything developed, refined, improved, and tending toward the best and perfection. It tends to an ever more narrow reference toward the top, best and most elite is reached, that is singular, finite, specific and is represented by the peak of the pyramid in the illustration that follows. In terms of human behavior and conduct, elite standards are embodied in very narrow and specific qualifications that dictate conduct, behavior, thought, word and deed.CONSERVATIVE (5 OF 13) NEXT PAGE
