Communists are economically liberal. I am socially liberal.
quote:I'll admit I'm fasist.
I'm againts abortions. I don't care about the enviroment (or how you spell it). I'm for free trade. I have no problem with voilent games/movies. I am againts cencorship. and I don't mind bringin down evil regimes.
That's fascist and you certainly are.
For the record: I think abortion should be mandatory, I only care about the environment as it is essential to my own survival, I'm for free trade that doesn't exploit workers, I have no problem with violent games/movies either, I oppose censorship, and I do mind invading weaker countries for their oil resources.
in a country ruled by a right wing texan, being anything BUT that will label you everything short of a terrorist. i should know.
like today...
i was in band this morning and since it was a class where you had to audition to get into, he introduced all the new members with little quirks and remarks such as "this is mary. if ya got problem, don't come to her!" or "this is john. and look! he finally scared the animal off his head!" everybody laughs at these, even the victim. its all fun and games. when he got to me, "everybody, i want you to pay attentino to this one. if you fall everywhere left of the communists, you go to her!" but instead of laughs, i got blank stares. welcome to your sophmore year, its gonna be hell. all right, it wasn't THAT bad. i salvaged the situation by saying very sarcastically "Thanks Mr. -----. Thanks a lot." with a smile.
Actually Kority can have fascist tendencies but against censorship at the same time. However, by doing so he's only a semi-Fascist or authoritarian, not a true fascist. Also, you people seem to misunderstand conservatism. US Conservatism is not founded on authoritarianism as it has in Europe since the Enlightenment, rather it’s founded on a belief that inherently government is not competent when it comes to economics (or social engineering) and that a traditional society is best. A US conservatism which puts great value on capitalism and a more conventional society is therefore not compatible for Authoritarianism or Totalitarianism, which advocate state-controlled economics and in the case of the latter completely new societies (ex: USSR, Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, Maoist Red China etc.).
I think part of the problem is people have different ideas of what the word liberal means. The original word Liberal stems from the Latin word "libertas." Economically, yes liberals are closer to communism but hardly complete communists. The problem is people fail to realize that there may be an economic liberal but they may be socially conservative(authoritarian.) This is where the people make the mistake, they automatically assume that when one says liberal they mean a Neo-Liberal.

Korith you’re the prime example completely misunderstanding politics, the exact opposite of Communism is not Fascism, let alone most CONSERVATIVES, who are authoritarian conservatives, tend to be against violent video games not liberals. Then you say you are a Fascist and then state that you’re against censorship, do you even see you’re own hypocrisy? I would hardly call Liberals a communist; you are simply making it into a black and white issue when it’s really not that simple. But I'd rather be a "commie" then a "fascist".
I find it ironic that someone can be a pro-life tree-killer.
The conservatives that disagree with people call them liberals because they go against tradition. I don't see a problem with going against tradition; the world changes so our society and ourselves must change as well. Otherwise we will not improve ourselves and our world.
The problem is that no one maintains a healthy balance between the two. A major right-wing person is just as bad as a major left-wing person. It's the extremists that ruin things.
