And also taking APUSH from a communist teacher

Buckleyan?

William F Buckley Jr

Founder of the National Review and modern conservatism

Ah

Look up firing line

I don't want to use my data xD

I'll check it out when I get home

The face of true conservatism

<:trueconservative:423311896356061186>

In any case, he decided that the concept of conservatism was "stand in the face of history and yell stop"

How's that workin lol

The inherent and fatal flaw with this of course that if you live in a 2 party system where both sides will inevitably rule the country and alternate, one side will make progress and the other side maintains the status quo.

Yeah

And that's exactly what's happened.

Buckley himself died a few months before Obama's election, and his son voted for him.

King cuck.

LOL

"If Trump wants to win the midterms, he better cut Social Security" - <:trueconservative:423311896356061186>

What?

More like

100 seat flip

You take away niggers free stuff, they'll riot and take away your seat

Anyways, the conservative inc folks who worship guys like Reagan and Buckley see Shapiro as the one who is holding the torch of that

Yeah

True

"Cutting foreign aid to Israel is not Conservative policy"
<:trueconservative:423311896356061186>

Is that a real quote?

Pretty much

:(

We're gunna lose again

That's why guys like Shapiro must be stopped

"If only Republicans had the nerve to do what needs to be done"

"Sweeping welfare cuts" <:trueconservative:423311896356061186> <:trueconservative:423311896356061186> <:trueconservative:423311896356061186>

I'll brb this teacher hates when I'm on my phone

I'm down for that though, as long as we repeal minroity's right to cote

Vote*

"It is perfectly obvious, we MUST intervene in Iran" <:trueconservative:423311896356061186>

Buckley fought off the paleocons (the old right who controlled the Republican party before Buckley and Eisenhower) his entire life. We have to restore that, then control the country.

"The reason you are poor is because you're too stupid" <:trueconservative:423311896356061186>

But neoconservatism is growing faster than paleoconservatism
