This assumes a frame of reference that the present is the state of no change.

the present is the part of time we're living in, so yeah, inherently so


That doesn't make it special. We live on Earth, it doesn't mean all places in the universe should be measured by their distance from Earth. Of course we can use Earth.....but we could use anywhere else too.

Someone who likes 1950 more than 2017 may want to use 1950 as their frame of reference. Someone who grew up in the 50s is highly likely to use it as their reference frame, whether or not they liked it.

Someone can like change away from their reference frame......but then they are probably not conservative, at least the way I am using conservative.
