I believe that "old patronising conservative bit" is a paraphrase of Maimonides (http://www.charitywatch.org/articles/eightrungs.html),  so are you saying that Maimonides was a conservative as we now think of conservatives?  Was the "bit" a good idea in a pre-capitalist society, but became patronizing in a capitalist society?
