Depending on the person you might get +different answers, some might say it's their culture or way of life they +want to perserve, others may defer to the "status quo" or the "rule of +law". But if I can sum that up in one core idea, I think most conservatives +would agree that they are trying to conserve institutions. + +What does that mean in practice? It means having respect for history, +carefully considering which insitutions stood the test of time and which +didn't. It means being wary of reinventing the wheel considering the +many crude attempts that preceeded you thousands of years ago. Not +necessarily resistant to change -- most conservatives *do* want changes +to the law -- but take the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" approach. +Not a pessimisitic outlook on life (as liberals might sometimes claim), +but a humble one, that recognizes that people usually get things wrong +before things go right. + +These arguments were inspired by points from various authors and +commentators. This is not an endorsement of their work necessarily, or +that they originated these arguments, just that I heard it best +articulated by them at some point. + +- Edmund Burke +- Glenn Beck / my high school history teacher +- Jordan Peterstein +- Ben Shapiro + +## American Liberals diff --git a/files/RESUME.html b/files/RESUME.html index 254828c..420c45a 100644 --- a/files/RESUME.html +++ b/files/RESUME.html @@ -22,9 +22,9 @@ account retirement procedures.</li> <h3 id="adjunct-faculty---adelphi-university-2022">Adjunct Faculty - Adelphi University (2022+)</h3> <ul> -<li>Developed and delivered lab excercises for CSC171 - Intro to +<li>Developed and delivered lab exercises for CSC171 - Intro to Programming (Python)</li> -<li>Adminstered online asynchronous course CSC 620 - Digital +<li>Administered online asynchronous course CSC 620 - Digital Forensics</li> </ul> <h3 diff --git a/files/RESUME.md b/files/RESUME.md index ea07b18..0d13f90 100644 --- a/files/RESUME.md +++ b/files/RESUME.md @@ -19,9 +19,9 @@ ### Adjunct Faculty - Adelphi University (2022+) -- Developed and delivered lab excercises for CSC171 - Intro to +- Developed and delivered lab exercises for CSC171 - Intro to Programming (Python) -- Adminstered online asynchronous course CSC 620 - Digital Forensics +- Administered online asynchronous course CSC 620 - Digital Forensics ### Microsoft Exchange Admin - aaronbasha.com / reginebasha.com (2021+) diff --git a/files/RESUME.pdf b/files/RESUME.pdf Binary files differindex 4267c59..2f7f532 100644 --- a/files/RESUME.pdf +++ b/files/RESUME.pdf |
