Oh, stop being a contrarian! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Classical doesn't mean extinct (can debate it if you like). We can call it whatever you like though. Call it True Liberalism or the Enlightend Path if you like. The point is remains that your use of the word contrasts with conventional usage (especially when you label Hillary as [i[hard[/i] right. Right now your argument is like insisting faggot isn't a slur for a gay person or a disparaging label for a male you don't like. It's really a bundle if sticks! You guys don't know what you are talking about!
Labeling Hillary hard right seems to originate with restricting left-right with "economic powers" as you previously indicated. Right or wrong, people regularly associate right with limited government and left with expansive government. Hillary leans left in that regard. If you are making the case that she leans right because she is a corporatist and therefore I'm support of an unrestricted market, I won't disagree in that context. However if we accept that that makes her right leaning we would have to associate all of her social policy as authoritarian, which I think makes sense also. So Hillary is a hard-right authoritarian?
Am I following you, or are you just trolling?
On a side note it is disturbing that autocorrect on my iPhone corrected a typo of Hillary to chill art.... |
Just because many american's have lost the meaning of the words doesn't mean they shouldn't be used properly. How else will people be able to critically think if they don't learn?
Yes Hillary is a Hard right authoritarian... she's a good deal less authoritarian than Trump but only slightly less conservative. She's a much more libertarian candidate than Trump, much closer to Ron Paul's voting history than any of the other republican candidates.
Which is shocking to many because everyone paints the clintons with a liberal hero's brush.
