      It’s the definitions currently used by Americans. Conservatives and the GOP are Right Wing, and they directly oppose progress and changes in all of their policy stances, in some cases even wanting to dismantle the laws already implemented and return to a previous era.

        Yes and I’m telling you that the same definition is used around the world.

        Btw back then the frech conservatives were monarchists that opposed the new democracy itself and wanted to dismantle it

          Thats fair sorry, I was thinking it meant something different in another culture but I was probably confusing it with Liberals or some other political identification.
