Against con men/conwomen
I critique Conservatives
I repudiate the modern Republican GOP. I reject modern conservatism as corrupt and decrepit
We do not need a new form of conservatism but instead an reinvention of the left wing. For more than one gen we have been under the influence of conservatism against which there is hardly any serious competition. With the economic crash and massive inequality, there needs to be an upsurge of left wing populism and yet a few of the most energized populists in the US and also in Europe are sadly on the right wing./
Like with Syrzia in Greece who are merely throwbacks to an bygone and exhausted left that will sooner rather than later have to meet the dire economic situations of their societies head on. We have to create a let than can stem the loss of the rich sphere bourgeois jobs and incomes via the forms of redistribution which does not betray economic growth
Fascism is the third political theory. Laying claim to its interpretation of the soul of modernity (many researchers, in particular Hannah Arendt, rightly see totalitarianism as one of the political forms of modernity) fascism turned together also to the ideas and symbols of traditional society. In some instances this resulted in eclecticism; in others, in the striving of conservatives to head a revolution rather than resisting it and bringing society into the opposite direction (Arthur Moeller van den Bruck, D. Merezhkovsky, etc.).
So we need the Fourth Political theory to keep this Third political theory (fascism and its conservativism) dead. The Fourth Political theory rejects the orthodoxy of Fascism and its conservativism
I am against Neoliberalism which includes the 1970s 1980s Conservativism (like here) along with modern Conservative Neoliberalism that is part of it (and buddies with it). I am against the Neoliberal conservative embrace of family values (like see here) , its opposition to multiculturalism (like see here), and neglect of ecological issues (like see here)
I am against CPAC and the ideology of CPAC conservativism
I am against Conservative Inc
I am against the right wing authoritarian conservativism of Brazil like under Jair Bolsonaro ,
I am against Corporatist Conservatism
Here and here are where some of my other thoughts on Conservatism and right wing are echoed and reflected (and also more reasons why I am against conservatism and the right wing)
