I was listening to an episode of Joe Rogan, and the guest considered himself a conservative.

Discussing the differences between a conservative and a liberal he used an analogy of a fence, where a liberal would want to take it down and a conservative would want to leave it up.

It got me thinking if this was true or not.

A little digging and I found this page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Chesterton%27s_fence

"Although the purpose of this fence is not obvious, there may be valid reasons for its presence."

(I'd like to think I'm in the mindful middle somewhere)
