For me fascists and communists are two leftist totalitarian ideologies. The fascists were just smart enough to give big business a seat at the table. But, that gave the commies the ability to claim the fascists are on the right, even though it’s only a step or two away.

American conservatism stands alone. It’s purpose is to preserve the American founding. It was and is a movement with the objective to preserve the God-given rights of the individual. In classical political ideology the political left wants us to surrender those rights to a supreme government in the name of collectivism. And, the political right wants us to surrender those rights to a supreme government in the name of the state.

We would not be morally right, we would feel dirty and slimy all the time and it would pose no challenge, having Christianity be back in school and government would be nice and a Fton better than the way this shit hole place is at the moment. A precipice is nearing, we will see where we fall. Remember All Your Doctor Always Knew

I'm just wondering if we have any examples of a truly free country in modern history? Any examples of a truly free economy?

I'm getting the sinking feeling the human race has never been truly free. At least not in the last 10,000 years or so.

It's spoilt only child syndrome with them.

If those things were true, there wouldn’t be a Left.

Oh, they fully know they are not oppressed, they mock you til you lash out then mock you for getting punished.

They just don't want to lose the power because that was how they got there was the victimization of self.

This meme circulated on this forum recently, but it nails it so perfectly.

Definitely worth the rerun!
