Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect. [Anti-conservatism counters that:] The law cannot protect anyone unless it binds everyone; and it cannot bind anyone unless it protects everyone.

In case you're not familiar with Wilhoit's Law:
“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit:
There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind,
alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.There is nothing more or else to it,
and there never has been."~Frank Wilhoit, composer

Many of you may already be aware of the important thoughts shared by #FrankWilhoit in his March 2018 blog comment "There is No Such Thing as Liberalism".
https://crookedtimber.org/2018/03/21/liberals-against-progressives/#comment-729288
It provides political framing I find useful. I propose using it as a test or "razor" (à la Occam) when evaluating political actions and legislation:
👉 Who does this action or law bind? Who does it protect? 👈
The best answer is the people who are bound are also protected. That would be a sign of that the action or law is a good one.
The worst answer is the people who are bound are not protected. This almost always means the action or law is a bad one.
As with all politics and compromise there are shades of grey, but this rule of thumb can help find the better action or law.

This quote from a few years ago adds #framing that I find useful...
"#Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit:
There must be #in_groups whom the #law protects but does not bind, alongside #out_groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
There is nothing more or else to it, and there never has been, in any place or time."
-- #FrankWilhoit 03/22/18 "There is No Such Thing as #Liberalism"
The original was an obscure blog post by Frank Wilhoit the composer, not the political writer Francis Wilhoit.

"The law cannot protect anyone unless it binds everyone; and it cannot bind anyone unless it protects everyone."
A good mnemonic is "Rules [Taxes, Laws, etc.] for Thee, but not for Me."

It represents a turning point in the system of lawless impunity for American plutocracy.
In the words of #FrankWilhoit, it is is a repudiation of the #conservative dogma: "There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect":

#FrankWilhoit's definition of "#conservativism" remains a classic:
> There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
