Conservatives love government, cops, the government's military, and deadly order more than they love liberty.
"Liberals" love government, self-flagellation, the false sense of safety, and self-destructive "fairness" more than they love liberty.
It's an uphill battle; swimming against the current. But liberty is the correct choice anyway. Every time, in every situation.

As you pointed out in a previous posting, they are not equally bad or culpable. One side's entire existence is opposed to personal and individual liberty. The other is only guilty of ignorance but supports liberty in the abstract.
ReplyDeleteThe Left is only slightly worse than the Right- on a number of issues. The Right is trying to play catch-up (or down). But, yes, I still think the Left is a little bit worse. It's frustrating that I can't talk about one side being a little better, but only which is worse. And, that it's so close and getting closer. I'm not really sure the Right supports liberty in the abstract- they support freedom, as long as it's the freedom to impose cops and paternal legislation.
DeleteThe Right won't give up cops and the Left won't give up anti-gun rules. Clowns to the Left of me, jokers to the Right...
