Shocked to see almost 40% of CoSo members consider themselves right wing on recent poll. They are clearly silent or I’m just missing their comments.
After the emotionalism of this election is over, I’d like to learn why they believe conservatism serves America.
We need to return to the respect/tolerance of decades ago when both parties worked together for the good of all.
@LnzyHou Given the stance of some on certain issues,I'm completely unsurprised.Maybe surprised that they'd admit to it but people will admit to their true feelings under the cloak of anonymity.
@FrankCannon @LnzyHou A funny thing about Americans is how oblivious most of us are to how skewed our politics are to the right on the world stage.
Even most Democrats would be considered conservative in comparison to the spectrum in other countries.
@FrankCannon @LnzyHou It is comical when RW Christian Nationalists attack Kamala Harris as ultra-Left Communist Marxist, just stringing words together they couldn't define at gunpoint.
ACTUAL Communists and Marxists would take issue with that characterization for her.😃
Many equate socialism with the excesses of China and USSR. But for authoritarians the political system is just a means to maintain power. Right or Left is irrelevant when absolute power is in play.
@S_r_stone Yup,there's no actual,functioning "Left" in most western countries,despite what they may advertise themselves as being.All shades of Right these days with very few exceptions. @LnzyHou
@S_r_stone It's mind boggling to an outsider looking in,I can tell you that.Dems would,as you point out,fit into the UK Conservative party seamlessly as an example. @LnzyHou
