Conservatives are violent by nature and thrive on the suffering of others. This is why every war and every genocide in human history has been caused exclusively by conservatives.
It’s not a sweeping generalization. It’s an observable fact. Regarding Uyghers in China, it’s possible for conservatives to oppress and genocide other conservatives. The world is not zero-sum.
100% yes. Stalin was absolutely a conservative. He even targeted and murdered progressives. You will find that neither communism nor socialism require progressives to be in charge in order to exist.
Modern China is another great example of conservative-led communism.
But does “conservative” to you just mean violent, repressive, and pro-authoritarian?
I’m against all those things, and I think Stalin and Hitler have a lot in common despite Stalin being “left” and “Hitler” being right, but I dont see how it serves you to call everyone who acts violently and unjustifiably towards their people a conservative.

100% yes. Stalin was absolutely a conservative. He even targeted and murdered progressives. You will find that neither communism nor socialism require progressives to be in charge in order to exist.
