It's A Tie

Gavin M:

Conservatives are always an embattled minority, and at the same time a majority that is always about to rise up. If we fail to understand how this can be so, it is because we lack ‘common sense,’ which is a thing that conservatives have natively, while we are forced to apprehend the world by thinking.

Common sense allows you to argue with the world and make it conform to reality. The world may say one thing, but that’s its opinion, and what if you say something else? It’s a tie, that’s what. And if you have common sense, you can argue with it and tell it how things actually are, which they will then be.
