The role of "conservatives" in this system is to browbeat the Right into conforming to the status quo, not to challenge it.

... the Alt-Right isn't guided by what is fashionable or respectable, which is why neither the Left or the mainstream "conservatives" can control it. There isn't any money to be made in the Alt-Right which isn't a donor-funded scam like mainstream "conservatism."

Or, as the great Southern theologian R.L. Dabney put it with regards to American "conservatism:"

This is a party which never conserves anything. Its history has been that it demurs to each aggression of the progressive party, and aims to save its credit by a respectable amount of growling, but always acquiesces at last in the innovation. What was the resisted novelty of yesterday is today one of the accepted principles of conservatism; it is now conservative only in affecting to resist the next innovation, which will tomorrow be forced upon its timidity, and will be succeeded by some third revolution to be denounced and adopted in its turn. American conservatism is merely the shadow that follows Radicalism as it moves towards perdition. It is worthless because it is the conservatism of expediency only, and not of sturdy principle.

Be bold. Fight on. Tell the truth in love . . . . . .
