Conservatives don’t have an ideology beyond ‘I am a good person’, not as a value judgement, but as an assertion of objective truth. It is inherently selfish.

• I am a good person so the things that I want are definitionally good and the things I don’t want are definitionally bad.
• If I didn’t want something yesterday but do today it was bad then but it’s not now because I want it.
• If I wanted something yesterday and don’t want it today it was good then because I wanted it and bad now because I don’t.
• I am a good person so the good things that happen to me are deserved and the bad are injustices.
• If you don’t agree with me you are a bad person and the bad things that happen to you are deserved and the good are injustices.
• Winning is all that matters because it puts the good people who want the right things (because I am good and I want them too) in power instead of the bad people who want the wrong things (because I don’t want them.)
