Thank you. A real confusion exists between the moniker "conservative" for those who are socially conservative but have libertarian economics. I'm not as concerned about AI right now but agree that it merges with transhumanism and becomes bad news. The issue for me is how to build a postliberal common good culture to support the politics that can build within the shell of the old -- like re-building cathedrals -- or just providing maintenance on those that the Church of England wants to get read of now. Thanks for the engagement!

What we generally call “conservatism“ today is penetrated by liberal premises and principles at every turn. I would like to see what a functional conservatism purged of liberal commitments looks like.

I think that it is what common good political theory and practice is out to accomplish. One can see it in someone like Pope Leo XIV or Sohrab Ahmari.
