classical liberalism seems right wing because the window got shifted

2018-05-06 05:58:42 UTC  

If the progressive, left-wing movement is illiberal, then liberals are conservatives.

2018-05-06 06:00:46 UTC  

They are ready. Liberal isn't an antithetical definition to conservative

2018-05-06 06:01:44 UTC  

Mhm

2018-05-06 06:02:09 UTC  

Progressive is the opposite of conservative, and people will tell you they're both liberal. (But progs aren't, cause utilitarianism)

2018-05-06 06:04:01 UTC  

There’s going to be a shift soon, and the pendulum will change directions to the right, just as it went left in the 60’s, as a result of the liberals becoming conservatives due to perspective

2018-05-06 06:06:11 UTC  

Nah, that's not how it works anymore. Leftist philosophy is being destroyed before our eyes. We'll see a shift to politics more similar pre-WW2 dichotomies

2018-05-06 06:06:30 UTC  

(In my opinion)

2018-05-06 06:10:34 UTC  

Well, back in the 50’s and before, conservatism was deeply rooted everywhere, and being a lefty was counterculture and weird. Now, leftism is everywhere, and liberalism/conservatism is counterculture. But it is possible that the democrats/left go back to pre-WWII as they struggle to survive. Could even be a party flip flop, where the left tries to go back and the right moves forward. That’d be weird.

Anyway, good talking to ya, but I need some sleep. Adieu

Sweet

@Deleted User Ancaps are a subset of libertarians. Not all libertarians are ancaps.

2018-05-06 17:29:29 UTC  

@Deleted User is a commie
it's sort of expected that she'd conflate libertarians with ancaps

2018-05-06 17:34:04 UTC  

@Deleted User I think any average person would. It's not exactly a mainstream concept

2018-05-06 17:34:23 UTC  

that's because they're sheeple

2018-05-06 17:35:05 UTC  

No, it's because not everyone is a politics nerd like we are lol

2018-05-06 17:36:21 UTC  

lol

2018-05-06 17:36:57 UTC  

He is actually right in this one

2018-05-06 17:37:24 UTC  

For real, when you take a step back from all this, you feel like you arw taking small stuff way too seriously

2018-05-06 17:37:55 UTC  

who?

Take a month break of reading politics, and the world will seems perfect

2018-05-06 17:39:16 UTC  

That's why I understand people who don't see "the cultural war" or "the Muslim problem"

2018-05-06 17:39:25 UTC  

Even the problem with illegal migration

2018-05-06 17:39:36 UTC  

It's like the Man Behind the Curtain from wizard of oz

2018-05-06 17:39:36 UTC  

They are just uniformed about a subject

2018-05-06 17:39:50 UTC  

And since their lives are going without problems, they don't care

2018-05-06 17:41:07 UTC  

Which seems to be a bigger problem, if most people aren't taking into consideration externalities for their long term plans

2018-05-06 17:41:18 UTC  
2018-05-06 17:41:36 UTC  

To understand the problems, and their implications

2018-05-06 17:41:51 UTC  

You have to actually look for it

2018-05-06 17:42:01 UTC  

Inform yourself about what's happening

2018-05-06 17:42:08 UTC  

And most people just don't do that

2018-05-06 17:56:46 UTC  

no wonder people can act so ignorant about a problem/issue

2018-05-06 19:00:05 UTC  

No, I'm not a communist.

2018-05-06 19:01:19 UTC  

I don't bother learning what anarcho-anything means, because I know the person identifying with it is a lunatic.

2018-05-06 19:02:08 UTC  

@Deleted User well, considering you were wanting to ban people off the server because they said something you didn't like, you kinda sound like a commie.

2018-05-06 19:03:16 UTC  

Well, if you think that too much government involvement is a bad thing, anarchism doesn't sound all too crazy @DanielKO
