Uhhh.... appeals to emotion or stereotypes, misleading reports, and omitted information are characteristics of fake conservatism that has all but eliminated actual conservatism. Anyone who has watched more than a few minutes of Fox State Propaganda can recognize this. Facts can be useful tools but their absence is hardly an impediment for the fake conservative.

Actual conservatives have no need for emotion or fear or selective fact citation in order to make their argument. True conservatives in fact have considerable respect for expertise on subject matter and group consensus. Claim of unique insight or revelation (often that only a few can see or conveniently align with pre-held preferences) regarding truth are hallmarks of extremists (of either left or right) - not conservatives. (Actual conservatives can never be extremists by definition.)

Indeed, a true conservative is a curmudgeon, skeptical that any new insight will prove out - but open to be proved wrong (once a millennia).
