The best country for conservatives would Afghanistan, Bhutan, Algeria, Myanmar, Sierra Leon, etc.
Those are not conservative nations with regard to the OP question.

Only if you don't know what conservativism is with regards to the OP. Conservatism "seeks to promote and to preserve traditional social/economic institutions." The traditions and social institutions of the previously mentioned nations couldn't be farther from those of North America or Europe, generally speaking.

Not the same traditions and social institutions. See above. Our "culture/traditions" is/are profoundly different.

There's no difference. You just hide from the thoughtful conservatives in this country, and legacy and social media corporations don't put them in front of you unless you seek them out.
I've tried to have quality discussions with you for YEARS, but once the going gets tough, you get going. I'll give you credit in that you're more sincere than most, though.
You’ve tried to have a discussion with ME? LMAO...I’ve never even heard of you! What are you talking about?
And yeah, there’s a HUGE difference in intelligence between European Conservatives and American Conservatives. European Conservatives are typically smart, well educated and have a broad view of most issues.
American conservatives? You may as well be arguing with a toddler who’s going through a temper tantrum.
I disagree only because the U.K. conservatives operate more like Moderates or Blue Dogs than the types of Conservatives we have in the USA.
Tulsi Gabbard would probably be considered "Conservative" in the UK but, here, she's considered a moderate Liberal.
The U.S. is in a much better position for conservative governance imho.
There have been traditionally two types of conservatives, the more radical Tory dries of the right of the party, and the more moderate one nation Tories, who are also known as wets.
Boris Johnson is more of a one nation Tory, and he keeps on going on about levelling up society, whilst an example of a Tory dry would be Margaret Thatcher and her monetarist economic policies.
The Conservative Party in the UK has adapted to UK policies, and there is overall consensus on areas such as universal healthcare, and this reflects the consensus in society and among voters on such issues.
Europe is very dangerous for conservatives. Germans are not even allowed to be proud of their nationality outside of soccer.
No truth to that.
Germans are afraid of patriotism, and for good reason. You should commend people for knowing their own limitations, and not encourage them to ignore them. The Germans know themselves better than YOU know them.

I find Germans to be patriotic but they certainly eschew Nationalism.

Reason: typo
All I know is that British Conservatives sound like people who know what they’re talking about. They don’t sound like a gaggle of knuckle dragging, provincial hayseeds that hates everyone who’s different from them.
I don’t usually agree much with European conservatives, but they’re a lot more palatable than the ones in my own country.
Lemme make my point clear for the last time: no one from outside of the conservative community can tell me ANYTHING about what’s going on INSIDE the conservative community because you can’t go where I go and talk to the people I can talk to.
I don’t care if I’m addressing the conservative community nearest to you that I’ve never visited before. I know more about it than you do and I have access to places and people there that you don’t have and can never have.
