There is so much that's backwards and retarded about right-wing conservatives it would be comical if it weren't real. But, to answer your question, technology won't lead to social change as long as the conservatives can use it to better control people. That's why they're so selective about which technological advances are "ok" to use. Nuclear weapons are justified, even though they kill people, while things like abortions are heinous crimes. It's about control of the masses. To think the opposite about either would be to relinquish control. As long as they can control which technology is used, the ones that help them keep control of people, it's fine with them and won't lead to any unwanted social changes.

Well, "radical" anything is not good, imo. But in general I think liberals are more about encouraging individual freedom and personal development while conservatives are more about restricting individual freedoms and creating worshipping sheep.

In general I'd agree. But what you see in leftism is this sort of "end all suffering" mentality. Obviously no modern human could be happy in a Brave New World scenario because we need some sort of struggle to survive. But the more hard-core liberals may decide one day that they want to eliminate all disease, with good intentions of ending the suffering. Then we begin using eugenics, manufacturing people with slight altercations to make everyone happy and end suffering until it's not really people being made at all. I believe the intentions are better, but may end up giving us a less than human existence. Not to mention for every law you pass, even if it's with the common good in mind, you're taking away someone's freedom.
