The founding fathers were whigs, and whiggery is evil. It constantly struck at the order that be, pulling it apart, and leaving the world in a fundamentally more chaotic state. Liberalism par excellence.

What do I mean here? The whigs would consistently undermine established authority and traditional social bonds. For example, they targeted Royal authority in favor of the Parliament, they challenged Anglican religious supremacy and authority, pushed for expanding suffrage, pushed for various reforms including the elimination of land ownership or religious tests for voting, supported commercial interests over traditional landed authority, and, perhaps most importantly, elevated things like "liberty" over concrete and traditional social institutions.

Each Whig "victory" — from the Glorious Revolution through Catholic Emancipation and Reform Acts - weakened some existing source of social stability and authority. While Whigs claimed to be defending "ancient liberties," they were actually dissolving the traditional social fabric piece by piece.

Whig emphasis on individual rights, religious tolerance, and commercial freedom helped create a more atomized, unstable society. The Whig tendency to justify political change through appeals to abstract principles like liberty (rather than tradition or divine right) introduced a permanently revolutionary element into politics — there is always some new "reform" needed in the name of liberty, in the name of equality, in the name of progress.

Again, leftism par excellence.
