    "There is no such thing as liberalism — or progressivism, etc.
    
        There is only conservatism. No other political philosophy actually exists; by the political analogue of Gresham’s Law, conservatism has driven every other idea out of circulation.
    
        There might be, and should be, anti-conservatism; but it does not yet exist. What would it be? In order to answer that question, it is necessary and sufficient to characterize conservatism. Fortunately, this can be done very concisely.
    
        Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit:
    
        There must be in-groups whom the law protectes but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
    
        There is nothing more or else to it, and there never has been, in any place or time."
