American conservatism

A political movement whose only uniting principle is an unwillingness to believe that humans are capable of being concerned for someone other than themselves. Typical of moral cowards, they begin with preferable, comforting conclusions before deciding on how to frame an issue to fit that conclusion, if they aren't merely accepting these instructions from Fox News, AM talk radio, shock/cringe message boards, etc.

Who knew that those affiliated with American conservatism has such a history of corruption and dodging of accountability as a basis for policy? Ex. Their response to ramped defense spending in response to 9/11 was to cut taxes for the rich.

The Extraphysical Conservation Problem refers to the theoretical difficulty of extending classical conservation laws (energy, momentum, information, etc.) beyond the physical universe into hypothetical extraphysical domains such as multiverses, higher dimensions, probability spaces, or non-material realms. While physics assumes conservation holds within a closed system, this problem questions what happens when the “system” includes parallel universes, branching timelines, or non-physical layers of reality. It asks whether conservation laws still apply globally, whether they are redistributed across realities, or whether conservation itself breaks down outside spacetime. The problem is central to speculative cosmology, multiverse theory, and extraphysical metaphysics.
Extraphysical Conservation Problem — Example

Imagine a multiverse experiment where energy appears to vanish from our universe during a quantum event. Later, another universe shows an unexplained energy surge at the exact same probabilistic moment. Locally, conservation seems violated in both universes, but globally—across the multiverse—the total energy may remain conserved. The problem is that observers inside only one universe cannot verify whether conservation holds extraphysically or is merely broken beyond their measurement horizon.

City Conservative

Typically a young person, often living in suburban/urban areas who has moderate, centre right conservative values. What separates a City Conservative from their Conservative peers is they are less judgemental and generally open about their beliefs; they will rarely have a party membership and will seldom commit to one political party.

The values of City Conservatives are also often more pragmatic and internal. For example, a city conservative would not voice total opposition to abortion, or shame those who have one, they just would not get one themselves. It is an evolution of the ‘silent majority’ analogy in US politics whereby pragmatic conservatives who want a stable family, a secure job, moral value and a love of country do not want to be placed in the same box as MAGA republicans.

whipped dog conservative

A conservative who is so afraid of ostracism by liberals that he instinctively pulls punches, ducks fights, and asks his supporters to be content with minimal victories or defeats that could have been worse.
Rush Limbaugh once accused the Republican majorityof acting like 'whipped puppy dogs.' An illustrative case would be the call by certain neoconservatives for a "twenty year national debate" on abortion before moving forward with pro-life legislation. A whipped dog conservative would pretend to find this reasoning persuasive, since it gives him an excuse to duck a fight.
