It would be much easier if you would simply read "Two Cheers for Capitalism" by the god-father of Neo-Conservatism, Irving Kristol, and then subsequently read "The Cultural Contradictions of Capitalism" by the neo-con econ guru Daniel Bell.

Max Weber is not a Republican or Right Wing Conservative hero. He is a hero to Social Democrats.

Also go find and read Irving Kristol's interview in the New York Times where the term "Neo-Conservative" was originally coined.

And yes, many Jews are atheists, especially those on the Left.

I dont think that matters to his question since he didnt try to explain it, he just asked for examples to which many did not give.


That being said, there are 40 websites that do graphs like that, all putting ideologies in different squares.

Here's a link to a thread on the definition of the term "neocon: from three years ago; for some reason, "neocon" has become the favorite "scare-word" (and occasional insult) among the "Social Justice Warriors" over there in the Big Lefty Sandbox

Youcould make the argument that they sre relsted but factly they are not.

I'm an atheist and lean right on some issues but left on a larger amount of issues.

I think libertarianism is communism in reverse - good on paper, not able to be done successfully in real life. I find libertarianism and many libertarians to be naive about human nature.
