The video starts by failing to understand what "left" and "right" even mean, suggesting that the US Democratic party is in any way left.

The list of conservative values doesn't mention racial segregation at all, which is the most core and most important conservative "value" of all.

This is the same naive failure of understanding that leads to the absolutely pointless practice of calling out Republican hypocrisy. All these true and valid arguments about freedom and independence that the video presents are absolutely meaningless to a conservative because all the conservative's talk of "freedom" is just a dogwhistle.

As Reagan aide Lee Atwater admitted (note: censorship is mine, he was saying the word):

You start out in 1954 by saying, “n-word, n-word, n-word.” By 1968 you can’t say “n-word”—that hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states’ rights, and all that stuff, and you’re getting so abstract. Now, you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, blacks get hurt worse than whites.… “We want to cut this,” is much more abstract than even the busing thing, uh, and a hell of a lot more abstract than “n-word, n-word.”

That's what conservatism is actually about, so when you try to convince them by earnestly engaging with the abstractions, you may as well be talking to a wall.

So no, Betteridge's law is not wrong, this video creator is a sucker.
