Why think that liberals "revere" dominance hierarchies just like conservatives? Instead, liberals prefer fairness and equality.

For me, it's a question of how far some group has grown from our tribal instincts. In that respect, conservatism and fascism are more primitive than liberalism, in rejecting secular humanism, but for the same reason, conservative and totalitarian societies are likely more stable. A fascist state is a giant cult that uses modern techniques of propaganda and demagoguery, to motivate, control, and purify the populace. In effect, a fascist state turns the country into a giant corporation since corporations perfect those techniques in their advertising, and are already internally dictatorial.
