(Anonymous) 2013-11-09 04:10 am (UTC)(link)That's true, but I think the space for that to be true and for those views to exist without being implicated in some kind of classist or racist point of view is fairly small. More to the point, in actually-existing American politics, the agenda of fiscal conservatism - especially as it exists in the Republican Party (although it's also fairly present in the Democratic Party) - really is intimately tied in with a conservative social agenda and a whole slew of classist and racist views, assumptions, and policies. Some have even argued that this racist and classist element is a substantial part of the political appeal of these policies. If you're supporting a policy of fiscal conservatism, it's pretty difficult to only vote for the parts of it that you approve. In the actual practical political sphere, you are, of necessity, supporting it with classism and racism attached.
I'm not saying that you necessarily shouldn't support it, or that supporting it makes you a bad person, or anything. I mean, this kind of complexity is probably present, mutatis mutandis, in political existence in general - we live in a deeply imperfect world and compromise is necessary. But the complexity is there.
The internet has made it so you're either enlightened and empathetic, and that makes you liberal, or none of those things, which means you are conservative. That is not how the real world works.
I agree with that. Neither side has a monopoly on good or on evil. We are not enemies.
