Ceolacanths and the Ceeb

The default setting of the CBC is Justin Trudeau hard—which is to say squishy—leftist. That being so, the concept of "conservatism" is something that gives the Ceeb the heeby-jeebies. For, not only do Ceebers, marching in lockstep as they do to the received wisdom/magical thinking of their kind, not understand how anyone could actually be "conservative" (the left, as they see it, having exclusive occupancy of the moral highground), anyone actually willing to step up and identify as such is regarded as the most bizarre and exotic (and, of course, dangerous) of should-be-extinct creatures--on the order, say, of a ceolacanth.

Here's an example of what I mean--a typical Ceeber "examining" (i.e. trashing) the idea of "reasonable conservative"; to the CBC, that phrase is the mother of all oxymorons.
