@amerika @LookBehindYouNowAndThen Interesting, I did not know that.

@amerika @LookBehindYouNowAndThen Imagine a horse with two legs. Doesn't mean that four legs are what makes a horse a horse. That's a parts-to-whole fallacy.

> Egalitarianism is the root of the Left

Are you sure about this?

@amerika @LookBehindYouNowAndThen That's a different argument than the one you put forth though.

@amerika @LookBehindYouNowAndThen Possibly. My right wing social values will never change because the #Bible does, but I care most about the Y-axis on the #PoliticalCompass. Can't get down with #Libertarianism because that's too extreme for me, unfortunately

@amerika @LookBehindYouNowAndThen Examining political spheres of thought, I've been wondering if I'm not closer to #ConservativeLiberalism than #Conservatism itself.

> Conservatism is a philosophy

Fair enough; Conservatism is pretty broad so it can be as libertarian as it can be fascist.

I care too much about supporting small government and principles over people to want to associate too closely with the modern right, who I feel is increasingly okay with authoritarianism (look at their support of #DeSantis for example)

> We are realists, the Left are anti-realists.

That's kind of a childish way to view things.

@LookBehindYouNowAndThen I guess we'll see. It's very possible that it's a free speech community and they won't ban him, which is fine. He doesn't need to be banned.

Part of me wonders if I'm even a #Conservative anymore. I hate big government and a lot of them don't, and the #MAGA people are pretty embarrassing to boot.

> Funny how you’re more charitable to this white supremicist’s views than you are for anyone to your left.

This is an interesting take. You must not know me very well.

Have you seen my political commentary blacklist of bad faith actors? It's mostly people on the right.
