    Yeah, I kind of wish there was another word for the idea, because it’s a bit confusing. I think originally it was “in reaction to progress”.

    Big and small c conservative is sometimes used to make the distinction in commentary, with big C being the reactionary stances that are common in right-wing parties that call themselves “Conservative”, but I don’t think everyone gets that either.
