Liberal? Have you read Breitbart? Bannon has ideas about class and economy that support egalitarianism - if you're a Christian, support old-school western cultural values, and are white. Apart from a few populist notions I don't think there's anything about Bannon that could be called "liberal".

- nindalf 9y agoI force myself to read Breitbart now and then, to understand what people with different views are thinking. What you've said is accurate. At the same time, Bannon displays intelligence and straight talk at times. For example, when tensions with NK started to heat up, he called Trump's "fire and fury" threat toothless because any opening of hostilities with NK sees 4 million+ residents of Seoul die within 48 hours. He was "telling it like it is", and he was fired from the White House immediately after. Now I don't agree with most of what he says but I can see how his followers admire his plainspokenness.
- lstyls 9y agoTotally agree with you here, I think I could have made my point better. He has a consistent ideology and sticks to his guns to be sure. What I meant was he is not liberal in the classical economic sense, nor in the American social sense.
