You know, I have 1 litmus test that instantly lets me distinguish between capital-c Conservatives, and just plain reactionaries: how they feel about environmentalism. If you're a conservative you have to care about preserving nature, the environment, clean air, outdoor spaces, etc. But if instead you're enthusiastic about coal, highway widenings, and your emotional support truck, you're just a base reactionary.
