Liberals and Conservatives -- Why So Much Hatred?

Date: Saturday, February 22, 2025 12:42 AM EDT

What is the difference between a liberal and a conservative? 

Some argue that liberals want to change everything, and conservatives want everything to remain the same as they are today, but that is not the true meaning of either liberalism or conservatism. 

Liberalism tends to endorse change, but it does not mean liberals endorse all change.  On the other hand, conservatism accepts change, it simply demands that any change is line with certain fundamental principles of conservatism which include love and caring for individual and family rights.  (Conservatism, as it currently stands in the United States with the backing of religious fanatics, conspiracy theorists, fascists, and Trumpists, is not true conservatism). 

Conservatism is better defined by Winston Churchill, Dwight Eisenhower, Margaret Thatcher, and Ronald Reagan than by Donald Trump and his band of sycophants who have no standards or principles worthy to stand upon. 

The truth of the matter is this: when it comes down to what is really important—really important—there is little difference between a liberal-minded individual and a conservative-minded individual from whatever land they come from.  All true liberals and all true conservatives support individual freedom, family, their nation, and the world.  One cannot be a true liberal or a true conservative if he or she does not respect and support these key factors and institutions.

El trumpers are neither liberal or conservative -- they are monarchists at best and fascists at worse.  They are the enemy within and we must stop them.

Makes you wonder why the liberals and the conservatives don't unite against the "trumpers", doesn't it?

Yesterday, one of my cohorts posted a link to my recent "I'm in the War -- Shame, Shame, Shame" post on his Real Clear Markets channel. Since he did that my post has garnered 351 views.  My usual count from a Talkmarkets post is about 20.

Makes you wonder doesn't it?

350 vs. 20

Who does Talkmarkets reach?

ps2.  Yesterday, i was on a high and began to think we were already on the road to victory.  I get that way sometimes (too much, in fact, because i continue to be let down).  Just the same, everyone should know that the Rebel Force is building.  We might not look like much, but mark my word--we will overcome!
