In conservative unions there is more equality because an alpha male will mate with an alpha female.. Liberal males are rarely alpha. The reason they demand equality constantly and expect the state to equalize the social and human playing field is because they are weak and can not contend.

I knew this super conservative business man. He was very old school. He was proud of his family..he was the head of his family- He was rich and powerful beyond imagination...and physically he was a large and powerful man.. I guess in the old days he would have been called a king...............Liberals want to be liberated from kings..that is the clash.
No, liberals want to be ruled by tyrants - so long as the tyrants have (D)s after their names. Liberals also want the government to take care of them from cradle to grave, so that fits in nicely with the penny-ante dictatorships they pine for and have almost achieved here in the US.

Absolutely. Why else would liberals impose a progressive tax if not to punish the successful? They feel guilty when they succeed, therefore they feel the need to punish others for being successful.

They demand that everyone has to be equal. They are anti-nature. They expect that wolves should be restrained and injected with sheep genes.

People who are strong mentally and physically do not demand equality. They don't need to. It's a fact of nature an a fact of breeding. Small weak people breed small weak people. If liberals were smart they would be thankful that those higher up the food chain don't simply crush them. Us conservatives have been very kind to you liberals...and if all right wing conservatives in America were to disappear - America would be invaded and would no longer exist...Germain Greer even said.."We have feminized our males to the point that they can no longer protect" - Much like YOUR Obama who does not stand up to the Muslim Brotherhood but attempts to bribe them with aid instead..

That is a lot like a kid who gives his lunch money to a bully.
Lol! So, you're saying the Conservatives are bullies? I'll happily agree with that. especially in light of the fact you stated the military is right-wing.
Furthermore, if anecdotes count, I know lots of big strong men, and they're all liberal or NDP. NOT Conservative.

I don't see progressive tax as punishment. The more money you have, the more tax you are capable of paying.

The two are not mutually exclusive.

I disagree.

Now, care to thumb wrestle or have a speed reading contest to settle it?

You pick.

This is the same sort of thing every intellectually bankrupt, despotic ideology has ever done: portray its adherence as the strong 'ubermensch', and the dissidents as weaklings. The Nazis did this, the Soviets did this. I realize this is very godwin but it is worth pointing out a bad habit before it gets too far.
