I can cover even more controversial issues, but I think that this is enough.
Whew! What a list that was.
Do you want to debate your opponents, especially libertarians, better? Instead of using poorly informed or thought out arguments or strawman arguments, here's a list of libertarian sources that you can intellectually challenge yourself with;
Instead of listening to big-name media, here's some alternate media to listen to:
My seven deal-breaking issues on why I hate the left more than the right:
1. Economics & fiscal policy. Conservatives at least have a slither of a hint about policies related to money.
1. Right to self-defense, & the means of self-defense, being to keep & bear arms & armor. Most conservatives have a clue & a little understanding about this (not to say that all are particularly articulate, though).
The two above issues are just about tied in my mind.
2. Conservatives, exaggerated/excessive or not, seriously care about keeping their countries afloat, including keeping the cultural integrity of their countries.
3. Today, conservatives have more respect for the right to freedom of speech/expression than the left.
4. Conservatives are more tolerant to school choice & general educational liberty than seemingly most progressives.
5. Conservatives aren’t chugging Marxist Kool-Aid that is, seemingly, increasingly farther to the left & more partisan.
(This video is a must-watch.)
6. Conservatives are more likely are take personal responsibility, & are more likely to believe in hard work.
7. Conservatives are seemingly more willing to sit-down & talk to opponents. John Stossel was able to get an episode called "Libertarians vs Conservatives" going, but not the same for progressive-liberals. I also almost never see conservatives shut-down comments sections on social media, & are less likely to block people they disagree than leftistd:
Liberals are more likely to unfriend you over politics — online and off - The Washington Post
While at least I don't see leftists believe in "might makes right" philosophy, it's doesn't outweigh the previous seven issues that I've listed here. Besides, many leftists believe in direct-democracy, which especially if not regulated, is legitimized mob rule.
Disagree with anything said here? Please put me in my place in the comments below. I invite criticism so I can improve myself intellectually & present more accurate information or better philosophy.
