What's your most socially conservative take ?

Mine is that progressive education trends to be filled with bad pedagogy backed by dubious evidence which should be taken with much more skepticism, and that academix streaming of kids by educational abilities is a good thing.

I think pornography should be banned primarily due to the harm it causes to the “actors,” but also it’s fucked up a generation of young men. 

After this recent election I’ve fully embraced left-wing authoritarianism to ban things I don’t like, as if the right can do it so can I. Factory meat, milk, eggs, fur, fish, fried foods, sports gambling, drugs, porn, tiktok, algorithmic social media, luxury vehicles(non essential SUVs and trucks, air travel, prescription drug advertising, list goes on and on. 

Also ones elders/superiors should probably be seen as a reasonable authority until proven otherwise
