Change is a constant of life- perhaps THE constant.

Conservatism is based on fear and hostility to change, and a desire to "conserve" the status quo (including and especially the existing power structure/hierarchies). Or, in its most extreme forms (ie fascism) to go back to an imaged Golden Age.

Not every change is good, but change-radical change, is inevitable. This is why conservatism will inevitably lose. It is at war with reality itself.

The only question is how much damage it will do, and whether it will succeed in dragging our entire species and world with it in its denial and spite.
