Conservatism Incorporated has marginalized conservativism: - with comments by Vox Day

Conservatism Incorporated has marginalized conservativism:
For many decades, Conservatism incorporated has been purging those to its right. Anyone too right wing was deemed to not be a true conservative. And the purge went ever leftwards ever faster.

The alt right is those that have enemies to the left, and no enemies to the right. As conservatism purged ever more people, ever faster, it would inevitably happen that they would become a minority in the Republican party.

And so it has come to pass. The alt right outvotes conservatives.
I don't know how many people would describe the #AltRight that way, but it's certainly a useful way to describe the self-abnegation of the GOP establishment. I do think, however, it also should be kept in mind that many recent "conservative" policies, such as the adoption of free trade, "real" equality, and propositional America, have proved to be destructive nonsense.
