Conservatism is a cancer that will not stop on its own. Pacifism is not working now and has never worked in the past. It's time to consider some other treatment options.

Conservatives and far right are currently walking hand in hand in many countries. Parties allying etc. They share so much

Pacifism is not lethargy to not defend oneself. Pacifism is to not be the aggressor, like to not attack the neighboring country just because your country might have a dispute about trade with the neighbor.
