Republicans want to 'extirpate' (root out and completely destroy) every single social advance from the last two centuries they see as 'liberal' and 'modern,' by force if necessary. Clearly that includes civil and voting rights, women's rights, LGBTQ rights and all forms of pluralism. Conservatives want to take America back to a time when only white christian men of wealth had power. Scary stuff.
