Every year for the last decade, June has begun with a flurry of progressive propaganda as corporations, nonprofits, and government organizations kicked off their Pride Month celebrations. Social media accounts draped their logos in the colors of the rainbow, employees sat through monotonous presentations on the importance of inclusion, and every public space was jam-packed with the iconography of the new state religion. But this year, the Pride Month rollout has been remarkably muted, with some of the loudest corporate proponents suddenly dropping the celebration entirely. Conservatives finally embraced the culture war, showing a willingness to address the issue head-on and wield power in pursuit of their values. Now that the Right has finally built cultural momentum, a new crowd of subversive naysayers have risen to lecture conservatives about the dangers of winning, and it is our duty to ignore them.

Classical liberalism was a real political tradition — one that helped shape the American founding. It deserves serious treatment. Watching it get paraded around by people who reject its core values is exhausting. If Locke or Adams saw progressive atheists wearing classical liberalism like a skin suit, they’d spin in their graves. The secular liberalism of the 1990s and early 2000s is not classical liberalism. It isn’t even an ally of conservatism. The non-woke left served as useful co-belligerents against the radical fringe, but they were never true allies — and they should never be allowed to lead the conservative movement.
