I've described the "Self Described Conservative" many times. Since you're new, you may have missed it. An SDC is someone who:
labels everyone who disagrees with them with the same word, usually "lib", "libby", or some other derivation of "liberal".
Wants to see a limited government, except for the parts he/she likes best.
Is highly authoritarian.
There is a lot more, of course, but this post is getting quite long already.
Buzzwords are labels that have no commonly agreed on definition, and for which the user has no definition.
Where did this strawman come from? Where have I ever said that Anyone who believes in God and is a Republican (conservative) doesn't believe in science?
And what's up with "Republican (conservative)"? Do you think those terms are synonymous?
when have I ever posted such a thing?
One characteristic of a simplistic political philosophy is the tendency to divide people into two "camps", mine and everyone elses. If you don't agree with me, then you must agree with anything anyone else has said that didn't agree with me.
Another outrageous straw man.
yes, I know. A buzzword has no definition.
either school of thought? So, there are only two? Talk about simplistic!
Of course there will be five different explanations. They will all be on different parts of the four dimensional political spectrum I've already described.
Now, if they have only a one dimensional, simplistic sort of philosophy, and are all on one end of the perceived spectrum, then all of the answers will be the same.
