EN: reactionary
The ultimate 'No To Change' person. They're the ones who say 'Mas maganda pa rin ang panahon noon' for EVERYTHING. They see a new policy or a progressive idea and their immediate response is to fight it and bring back the 'good old days,' even if those days weren't actually that good. Think of them as the opposite of a 'rebolusyonaryo'.
From Spanish 'reaccionario'.
