The **American Hyper-Conservative Party**, also known as just **Hyper-Conservatives**, emerged in the early 1990s but didn't make their official debut on the world stage until around 2020-2021. They are a revolutionary political party and armed paramilitary force based in the United States of America.

## Overview and Ideology

The American Hyper-Conservative Party is a mass movement of predominantly Christian Americans, with thousands of chapters across the country.

The American Hyper-Conservative Party believes that the government of the United States does have the American people's interests at heart. However, their policies have begun to destroy America's traditional values in the name of "equality".

Their ideology is described as a strange mishmash of Neo-Conservatism and the Christian Right; like Neo-Conservatism, the Hyper-Conservative Party advocates for the promotion of democracy and interventionism in international affairs, including peace through strength, and are known for espousing disdain for communism and political radicalism. However, they also share views with the Christian Right; for one thing they condemn public education and promote the teaching of creationism and intelligent design alongside Darwinian evolutionism. This makes them different from the True Christians of America movement, which advocates for the complete abolition of evolution in public schooling and completely replacing it with Biblical Creationism and Intelligent Design.

### Schooling

Hyper-Conservatives advocate for the teaching of sex education in schools, claiming that it is the "only way to save our children from the homosexual agenda." They believe also that a Judaeo-Christian education is vital to a proper understanding of the country's origins.

### Separation of Church and State

Perhaps most controversially, they agree that the term "Separation of Church and State" is an illusion, arguing that the Constitution's Establishment Clause only prohibits the creation of a state religion, and that nowhere in the Constitution does the concept of a "Separation of Church and State" or anything even remotely similar appear. However, they differ from the True Christians of America movement by also arguing that this absence of a separation of church and state does not mean America needs a theocratic government or that the Founding Fathers would have wanted one in the first place.

They do agree, however, that the Establishment Clause doesn't prevent the government from acknowledging religion.

### Abortion

Hyper-Conservatives also reject the mantra that abortion is healthcare, arguing steadfastly that it is instead murder. Like the True Christians of America organization, Hyper-Conservatives agree that Roe v. Wade is a huge travesty and needs to be overturned. However, they differ from the True Church of America in their belief that abortion is not something that should be punishable by death. They see women as victims of "misinformation" and "brainwashing" by liberals teaching them that the only way to succeed in life as a woman is to murder your child.

### Biotechnology

Hyper-Conservatives oppose human cloning, associating the idea of cloning with eugenics. This has motivated them to lead campaigns against the use of human stem cell research. They also oppose euthanasia.

### Speciesism

Hyper-Conservatives also defend speciesism, the idea members of one species as morally more important than members of other species in the context of their similar interests. Unlike animal rights activist, who believes that speciesism is discriminatory, no different from sexism and racism, Hyper-Conservatives believe speciesism is actually very different; Hyper-Conservatives believe that speciesism is actually the key difference between humans and animals; by treating non-human animals differently from humans themselves, humanity reaffirms its position of a unique creature, completely separate from non-human animals. To equate speciesism with racism and sexism would imply that humans are no different than animals, which leads to (in their minds) horrific implications regarding human morality and a human's individual worth in the eyes of others.

They also believe that the concept of "animal cruelty" and "animal rights" are social constructs created by animal rights activists to "bully and oppress their fellow humans" into believing a view of humanity deemed "dehumanizing" and "tyrannical" to humanity.

Animal rights activists have responded to such arguments by claiming that they set up a slippery slope where such a mentality can be used to justify self harm through excessive consumption of animal meat and habitat destruction. To this, hyper-conservatives have argued that such a counterargument assumes that there is a moral equivocation between working to differentiate onself from an animal and harming either yourself and/or the environment.

In an interview with TIME Magazine, Hyper-Conservative Party member Janette D. Reel said, "They are completely different things. To argue that speciesism is akin to racism and sexism and homophboia is to imply that humans are no different than chimps, cows and pigs. How does that explain humanity's ability to make moral decisions? The cows and fish and pigs may have emotions, sure but are they capable of making moral decisions for themselves? This is the key argument that animal rights activists overlook: all they focus on is the capability of suffering. Of course humans and animal can suffer! Why else did the Holocaust happen? Why do so many people struggle with mental health issues? Are you going to deny the Abu Gharib Prison Abuse scandal that happened in the 2000s? The question of 'Can they suffer?' is a deflection, an irrelevant red herring that seeks to divert attention from what ought to be the true focus: the ability of moral reasoning. Yes, we are different from animals but we still have a moral obligation to take care of them. This is why we find factory farming abhorrent, why we find marine bycatch abhorrent! But to say that the only way to abolish factory farming is to stoop down to the level of a cow and a pig, deny our own uniqueness as humans made in the image of a Higher Being, and fight for an animal's entitlement to the same rights as us by abstaining from animal consumption entirely?!? What an atrocious statement!"
