A "'''reactionary'''" is a negative term for an extreme resistance to [[conservativeleft-wing]]or [[Marxist]] [[social experiment]]s, or someone who always favors the [[status quo]]. The term comes from the reactions that happened during the [[French Revolution]] against the excess of Jacobins in the Reign of Terror; this origin is often overlooked by [[liberals]] who use the term as slander against conservatives.
