do the right wing guys think it’s like a draco malfoy thing where they’re a good guy underneath?

like when it’s like a lady and a cop and the lady seems like a normal sorta boring suburban lady

do you know what i mean. this is one of the things where if you try to ask an AI bot it yells at you

    They think the things you’d be surprised to learn people actually think.

    I.e.

    Crying makes you weak. They’re with manly men who don’t cry or go to therapy or any of that woke commie bullshit. They’re with strong men who will protect them. Louder = smarter.

        except they are, they just believe it when the owner of the boot stepping on them tells them that actually, this isn’t subjugation.

      I think you have a very strawmanned perspective of people who disagree with you politically.

        I’m not so sure I care what it is you think about my perspective on fascism or fascists.

          Right wing != Fascists. Fascism isn’t even particularly right wing imo

            If you are voting Republican in the US, you’re advocating fascism. Full stop.

            And also lol what a dumb thing to say. Fascism is by definition right wing. It is the terminus of the right side of the spectrum. That isn’t an opinion, that’s it’s definition.

                  It is not sealioning. You are arguing something cars are blue, to address that I first have to understand what you mean by a car, and what you mean by blue. To me, fascism seems much more contradictory with right-libertarianism than with certain forms of socialism. Hence why I think its more reasonable to say its not far-right. That is unless your definition for right-wing is “bad”, and the badder it is, the further right it is. That’s why I asked for clarification.

                What do you mean “again”? You haven’t asked me before. And right-wing is another way of saying the side of the political spectrum that conservativism occupies.

                  I said it in reply to another person on the same thread before you commented, but yeah that was kinda bad phrasing- sorry.

                  And right-wing is another way of saying the side of the political spectrum that conservativism occupies.

                  Okay, and what is left-wing? Also what do you consider the main traits of conservatism to be?

                    The opposite side of the political spectrum, which progressivism occupies.

                    Also what do you consider the main traits of conservatism to be?

                    Fundamentally, the belief in hierarchy. Which manifests as support of capitalism, private ownership, and traditional social values.

                    Opposed to progressivism which opposes unjust hierarchies, and favours egalitarianism. Which manifests in desire for more equitable distributions of wealth and power, and critiques traditional social values.
