He won’t, though, because he still fundamentally believes in conservatism, aka refusing to allow any kind of progress and maintaining old, cruel, pointless social hierarchies at all costs.

You attribute too much malice to stupidity.
Just because someone doesn’t hold your same values doesn’t mean their an idiot. It just means they don’t care about what you care about, and don’t share your moral/ethical values.
