Reaction
the firm and visceral sense that modernity sucks, even though, by all rights, it should not; anti-revolution; anti-progressivism; usually triggered by observation of one or more of the following: women are less pleasant and/or men are wimpier than they should be, foreigners are everywhere they shouldn't be, mankind is getting stupider, the more democratic things are the more corrupt they seem to be, ugliness is everywhere and getting worse.
After recognizing the vapid status seeking of his "progressive" neighbors, the hopeless ignorance of the electorate, Bill decided to plant his feet on the side of The Reaction.
