Actually, you haven't. You are allowed to pick either group A or group B. Both groups are idiotic in their own ways.
On the spectrum from hardcore libertarianism to hardcore conservatism, the two political parties are huddled closely together in the middle of it.
You don't get a choice. But you get to be branded for the rest of your life as one of those two groups.
It's a game I refuse to play.
- pessimizer 11y agoYou're not forced to pick from either, as you seem not to have. If you decide to publicly pick one, you will be judged for that. Exactly what better criteria would you use to judge people if not their choices and actions?
- sillysaurus3 11y agoTalk to them. Ask them for their point of view. Listen carefully to what they say, and try to put yourselves in their position. Only then should you hate them, if you really choose to. Not before.
- JshWright 11y agoDo you mean liberalism? Libertarianism and Conservatism aren't that far apart to begin with.
- sillysaurus3 11y agoThanks, fixed.
- vezzy-fnord 11y agoBurkean conservatism and classical liberalism (modern right-libertarianism) are leaps and bounds apart. Just go read Russell Kirk's essays chewing off libertarians.
