I agree with your distinction. I notice the same thing in the Conservative party here in the UK. The Conservatives are a 'big tent', encompassing social conservatives (eg. ban drugs, ban sex work) and free marketeers (eg. legalise drugs, legalise sex work) and on top of that, populists have recently come to prominence (Boris Johnson, Brexit, Liz Truss). This isn't to say which my personal opinions are, just an observation about the party.
- anon291 4y agoIn a two party system like the US, you get strange bedfellows. It's like how the democrats are all about feminism and atheism while at the same time seemingly in love with the Muslim base as well. There's nothing wrong with either one, but both have to choose a party and there's only two... unfortunately.
