I think one should criticize the influence of the courts rather than simply blaming 'the conservatives'. The court system has become quite the monster over the past 100 years. They can have free reign over policy decisions that ought to be handled by the legislature. Because of judicial review, the Judicial branch of the federal government can effectively make law where there was none before which used to be the domain of the Legislatures and the populace.

Did you know that around a hundred years ago, the Legislative branch controlled the docket for the Supreme Court?

I know that's not the point that you're trying to make, as blaming your woes on the conservatives is much easier for the brain. I'm sure that if the average .world user had dictatorial power for a day, one of the first acts would be to disenfranchise the Christians because they are problem voters, and shortly after repealing the second amendment in its entirety.
