You can’t really say “I’m only fascist leaning”. Either you are or you aren’t

    I would say there’s an acceptable amount of conservatism. Monogamy, religion (even though I think it’s stupid), lifestyles. And even then, this conservatism is usually based on what’s considered “liberal” and not necessarily tied to any ideology. But proclaiming yourself to be “right wing” means fetishizing these traits and becoming a caricature

    • Traditional small “c” conservatism was just about wanting to raise your children the way you grew up, it doesn’t really exist anymore. When I grew up cops dressed like mailmen who drove clearly marked sedans and you could walk across the southern border. Now the cops look like soldiers and the border has saw blades on it
