Liberals make up more of the consumer class than conservatives. That highly marketable strata of people that have disposable income tend to be affluent, college educated liberals. Its why they keep winning the culture war and it drives conservatives insane.
Yes, and most of that consumer base needs to stop tolerating quite a bit of reactionary bullshit (yes, American "conservatives" aren't conservative, they don't keep status quo, they actively destroy it for regression, they are reactionary).
Conservatives have always been reactionary. This isn't a US thing it's a global thing, they don't want to keep things the same they want to return to some rose-tinted version of history that never existed. They're the ones that call themselves conservative.
But you can't call everyone you disagree with a delusional idiot even if they are, because the insult loses its power. So we might as well call them by then preferred name
