said, "Outside of the US, "right wing" doesn't mean Conservative Republicans. It's a rival form of socialism. The Nazis were "right wing"."

You are technically correct on that. I used to use the terms individualist vs collectivist which makes far more sense to me.

Some idiot intellectual argued that fascists where individualist... I could only laugh.
As in selfish for their own good you mean?
My point there is no great term for who we are. I actually like the term liberal in it's real meaning. Though that was hijacked.

I believe "Constitutional Conservative" describes me accurately.
