The Nationalist Right Wing should reclaim Environmentalism

2019-08-26 19:30:27 UTC  

Left wingers: wtf now we HATE the environment now

2019-08-26 19:40:57 UTC  

not really, tbh

2019-08-26 19:41:48 UTC  

lefties don't usually base their opinions on if they are opposing right-leaning ones

2019-08-26 19:42:02 UTC  

Some of them do

2019-08-26 19:42:10 UTC  

who?

2019-08-26 19:42:43 UTC  

Border control?

2019-08-26 19:42:49 UTC  

Was a right wing position

2019-08-26 19:42:54 UTC  

To have it open

2019-08-26 19:43:12 UTC  

And then Trump changed it to controlled borders

2019-08-26 19:43:22 UTC  

And then a bunch of lefties changed their minds

2019-08-26 19:43:40 UTC  

and when did that happen?

2019-08-26 19:43:55 UTC  

i need citations for that lol

2019-08-26 19:43:57 UTC  

Over the course of the Trump campaign and presidency

2019-08-26 19:44:14 UTC  

Look it up: Koch brothers promoting open borders

2019-08-26 19:44:41 UTC  

And that's because:

2019-08-26 19:44:45 UTC  

Surprise surprise

2019-08-26 19:44:57 UTC  

Trump is largely your classical 80s Democrat

2019-08-26 19:48:57 UTC  

Now, if you're wondering *why* it used to be a right wing thing

2019-08-26 19:49:11 UTC  

That was because illegals were a convenient way to get cheap labor

2019-08-26 19:49:41 UTC  

And it was the Dems at the time calling it inhumane and saying citizens shouldnt lose jobs

2019-08-26 19:50:37 UTC  

It was an economic "Right Wing" position, not cultural/nationalist Right Wing position.

2019-08-26 19:50:55 UTC  

...just not nationalist

2019-08-26 19:51:13 UTC  

Cultural I dont think applies here

Cultural Right Wing as in Social Conservatives and Paleoconservatives

2019-08-26 19:52:28 UTC  

Pat Buchanan and co.

2019-08-26 19:52:32 UTC  

Again

2019-08-26 19:52:43 UTC  

Culturally it could go either way generally speaking

2019-08-26 19:53:00 UTC  

I read a few articles and the Koch brothers don't seem to be exactly "open borders", they even stated this: "The president has a duty to enforce the nation’s immigration laws." They did support borders, they were only against the deportation of illegal immigrants. Which, sure, isn't super right leaning, but is 100% not complete open borders. Although if I misread it, feel free to correct me.

2019-08-26 19:53:02 UTC  

You could go for the "govt dont tell me what to do" sort of culture

Uh-oh: Silicon Valley is building a Chinese-style social credit system
In China, scoring citizens’ behavior is official government policy. U.S. companies are increasingly doing something similar, outside the law.

2019-08-26 19:56:43 UTC  

But generally even many economic right wingers don't go as far as open borders

2019-08-26 19:56:56 UTC  

They are pragmatic on this issue
