Don't you think it's convenient for you that leftists (who you've been exposed to through heavily filtered environments such as 4chan) are just mindless, angry, screeching lesbians possessing no ability for critical thinking nor any interest in talking about issues beyond their non(or semi)-phallic genitalia?

have you perchance perused James Mason's revolutionary and uncompromising classic SIEGE? People seem to think right-wing thought starts and ends with Hitler, some repeat the leftist commonplace that there is no such thing as fascist theory, when they could be farther from the truth. Charles Manson, Miguel Serrano, Savitri Devi, Francis Parker Yockey, Anton Long/David Myatt/O9A... the list goes on. esoteric nazi theory is definitely deeper and more fascinating than leftwing and marxist theory, which imho lacks the cosmological razzmatazz of right wing theory.

Well yeah I agree that identity politics is a problem on the left. It used to be that you bring up race or minority status when you're talking about serious issues such as judicial inequalities or social non-acceptance but now it seems like the arguments boil down to "I am a woman of colour so I win the argument." However I think that this can be vastly overstated sometimes, especially by right-wingers, who use the crazy type of identity politics to discredit genuine social movements that focus on legitimate minority issues.

>>13544257

Main question in left-wing versus right-wing ideologies is the question of how much should the State intervene in private affairs. In this specific topic I think that leftists are far more reasonable and humane than right-wingers. Let me explain.

The main thing about neoliberalism and right-wingers is that they want the State to exist and intervene up to the point they need it to exist and intervene. Pass that point they will call all State regulations communistic and fight with a they have to prevent it, using all sorts of liberty and freedom and prosperity slogans. This is mostly because: a) they don’t want to have to spend money and pay taxes to help people they don’t know and don’t care about and b) they want to be free to exploit others and the environment without any coercion.

All this right wing figures absolutely want the taxes to be spend on the army and on police forces, for example. Why? Because they need them to protect their property and their lives. They need the army strong to use it as a way of coercion upon other countries. They need the police to keep plebeians in their place. This same people would never complain about taxes being used to build roads and infrastructure, since they too need these things.

Now, if the government wants to use tax money in free healthcare and free higher education, and in better social security and social services, then the same people who happily see taxes founding the army will complain, because they don’t need healthcare or schooling and etc, since they can pay for it. They don’t want to have to pay more taxes to help others, since fuck others. They are short-sighted and fail to see that everything is connected and that the more healthy and happy people are the better it is for everyone.

The most nasty aspect of right -wing politics, however, is the “freedom” they want in environment and labour regulations. They want to be free to exploit cheap labour and to extract all they can from their employees. Also, they want to be free to destroy the environment without any laws to curb them, and whenever someone proposes that the State should intervene to help in securing better conditions for workers or more strict laws to defend the environment, the same people that aprove forced like the army and the police will say that the State is communistic and dictatorial.

In short, most heads of the right-wing parties are extremely greedy and egocentric people who want all for themselves and aprove of anything they need to achieve more, but who will scream “communism” to anything that is not necessary to them or that will weaken their power and freedom to exploit others.

This is the main thing about the diference in left and right wing politics. All the rest is just varnish and superficial colors.

There is nothing right wing about that.
The right winger seeks to protect his country, it's people and it's culture.

Anybody who doesn't do that, eg.:
-Promotes globalisation
-Promotes immigration
-Promotes the excessive destruction of nature
-Promotes a consumerist culture
-Promotes the exploitation of his own countries workers for material gain
is not a right winger, but in fact just another, totally apolitical, neocon shill and represents "the right" as well as you average neolib represents "the left".
