conservatives will always lose

Because they are fighting against the one unchanging law of existence: that change and evolution is constant and inevitable. The values they conserve today are the values progressives inaugurated in recent past. They are basically liberals but always one or two steps behind. Notice how little they bitch about homosexuality nowadays (relatively speaking)? Because all their focus is on getting mind-broken over transgenders. Conservatives in 200 years will probably be obsessed with transhumans and clankers that gender and sexuality won't even cross their mind, likewise if you took a conservative today and put them in medieval Europe they'd probably be put in a pillory in the town square for being too degenerate.

Even if they manage to plunge us again into the dark ages humanity will eventually have another enlightenment and come back even stronger. In that way conservatives do serve a role, they are the resistance needed in strength training. They also act as an anchor and sanity-checker so we don't progress too fast and blindly into potential self-destruction.

Its really not the normal, or natural course of history that liberalism became the dominant ideology. What we today consider normal would be considered absurd and unthinkable even just a hundred years ago; and I think it will be that way again in a hundred years from now.

The reason conservatives have been losing every cultire war since the 1960s (until fairly recently) is that they accepted the basic premises of liberalism, but werent willling to take them all the way through. This is changing now. What we are seeing today is the birth pains of a new social, political, and global order that I believe will shape our civilization for many centuries to come.
