I am a Conservatist Pro - Modernist. :3

-----

The Intranet tells me that Conservatism is equal Modernism (as top result). I lose faith in the world. :(


Libertarian is just a subset of individualism.


Ideologies are not bad. It is just their consequences that are most important.

I'm probably a social democrat

IS RELATIVISM A GOOD OR BAD THING ?



FlameWar ON.

Paleoconservative since I started reading Pat Buchanan. Paleoconservatives are closest to the Libertarian strain.

Libertarianism has a certain appeal, but there's always such a thing as too much liberty. There are some issues where a Laissez Faire approach just doesn't cut it.

That being said, I do agree with Libertarians on certain issues. Especially on matters regarding free speech and the damage being done to it through things like political correctness.

Ironically, I'm probably the total opposite of Libertarian definition wise. Conservative on social issues, but Socialist when it comes to economics. (When it comes to Military or Science based political issues I'm usually in the center)

^Just wondering, what do they call someone who is Conservative on social issues and socialist in economics? Is there a special name for it (like un-Libertarian or something of that sort)?

Conservative on social issues and socialist in economics?

This is sorta like the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and Christian Social Union (CSU) in Germany!!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_democracy

Its based on the concept of Christian Democracy, a political ideology that combines a conservative view on moral/social issues and a social market economy. It makes sense...they're not contradictory views. You believe in statism more generally where the government should have prime control over the moral laws and economic laws of the nation. Its not really a conservative political ideology but its classified in political science as a center-right ideology!!

Wow, this thread went from 7 comments to 72 in one night...

Conservative isn't an ideological registered belief but its the basis for many belief systems and political movements

Alrighty Scottie, now your just a troll.
