Why are you conservative, why are you liberal, why are you independent?

[nmoore63]

Another great argument from Team Libertarian.

With arguments like that, it is truly a wonder why libertarianism is collapsing.

I'm sure if you scream louder you will get an answer.

LOL

Nobody is screaming. You are being ridiculous. It's pretty straightforward:

Libertarians want to liberalize destructive personal moral behavior.
Libertarians want to liberalize destructive social moral behavior.
Libertarians want to liberalize destructive economic moral behavior.

Progressives want to liberalize destructive personal moral behavior.
Progressives want to liberalize destructive social moral behavior.

Conservatives want to liberalize destructive economic moral behavior.


Which is more liberal??

I like to think of myself a post modern neo marxist intent on destroying all civilization.

I was just listening to Russ Roberts describe a Liberal as someone who divides the world into Victims and Oppressors. I guess I'm not liberal. I want equality for everyone, not special treatment for those who see themselves as victims. I was nauseated by the story about the non-asian girl pilloried for wearing a traditional Chinese dress to prom.

It's beyond ridiculous at this point. Gonzaga sent a note to white students on May 4, reminding them not to celebrate Cinco de Mayo.

So you have no answer to the argument other than to accuse the person making it of "screaming" at you, or some other such nonsensical accusation.

Noted. You have nothing.

Golden rule.
Ten cannots.
Protestant work ethic.
US Constitution.

Pretty much my political guidelines. Not necessarily in that order.

Oh I certainly do.

I simply find it more insightful that a thread concerning self reflection, you still couldn't hold yourself back from screaming about everyone else.

[DrYouth]

Started progressive.... cause bolshie panty waist and educational indoctrination...

I like liberalism because it has led us out of the dark ages...

But I am concerned about where liberalism is taking us as our social fabric weakens to the breaking point....

So... I am becoming more conservative....

Yet really fit in nowhere.

But I'm good with that.

I feel like I fit right in on this island of misfit toys.

Good thread... other than the usual broken bottles and chairs.

Where am I wrong, Nick?


Libertarians want to liberalize constraints on personal moral behavior.

Libertarians want to liberalize constraints on social moral behavior.

Libertarians want to liberalize constraints on economic moral behavior.



Are any of those three propositions wrong? I don't think so.

You could make the same statements about God granting Free Will.
