You don't even understand the terms you're flinging around. Ring-wing explicitly, unambiguously, means Conservative.
> What do you call the Liberal Party of Australia? They aren’t left leaning at all.
And the Liberal party of Canada is.
All of the Western world is Liberal. It can either be left-leaning or right-leaning.
It does not make a lick of sense to suggest that the only thing that anywhere near leans left is Socialism (this is the only possible conclusion that can be inferred from your rhetoric), while you lump everything else that functionally uses Capitalism as "the right". This is not the colloquial understanding.
- skinnymuch 4y agoMy question I’m wondering for you. Who are capitalists and anti-capitalists? And can capitalists be left-wing in your view of the world’s overton window? Do you consider the Global North not right wing? The modern overton window is moving to the right as I’m sure you’re aware and you’re trying to say it has moved enough that being capitalist now means left wing. What year do you think this change finally happened? It wasn’t this way during the 50s. The Overton window was much more to the left back then. Free market economies are a right wing ideal, no? Like China isn’t a free market economy.
