If you agree that biologically people are what they are and haven't changed then you agree with conservatism & Americas founding Principles

Is human nature malleable, controllable, by social constucts? If you think yes then you're liberal, and by definition a science denier.

If you think no, then you accept reality as it actually is, and you support and agree with America's founding principles, i.e., conservatism

And that's fine. That can be debated. And you're open to that debate because, IMHO, you're of the Aristotelian cognitive style.

I agree with you about some on the left. Also, some who call themselves Conservatives label all Liberals as Commies or Satan-worshippers.
