These people don’t share your beliefs. They just told you they did. They told you so you would check a box by their name. They would gladly throw you off a cliff to save themselves or their exotic dancer affair partners.
Conservatives believe that they should get special rights simply because of who they are. This isn’t grounded in a shared moral system; conservative values are about elevating the “right” people to power and privilege.
It’s why conservatives don’t care what the people who represent them do: they believe that their representative deserves to be there simply because they’ve signalled that they’re culturally conservative.
It’s an ideology for losers, and I mean that literally. The “left” side of the political spectrum is about empowering those who never had much to lose, while the “right” side is about reclaiming lost privileges for those who feel entitled to the whole pie.
The right isn’t really against abortion even if they pretend to be; they’re against it for the people who they want to control.
I think they would throw any one particular affair partner over that same cliff to save themselves and their ability to chase new affair partners, but otherwise you’re spot on
