I don't think the various Marxist influenced totalitarian regimes of the past 100 or so years could in any way be classified as "conservative", unless you broaden the definition so that it applies to just about everything!
I strongly disagree. These regimes all started as advocates for change and progress when they were seeking power. Then they did a hard steer right once they actually achieved power. They still retain the ideology, but their outlook is more about structuring society and people to keep that ideology in control indefinitely.
