What do you consider a paleoconservative?

Anyone smearable usually.

I don't think many here can easily fit into any of the various "con" labels. Labels are used around here to zing or "rope off" someone and they come from all angles.

Neocon means cultural liberal Clown Posse FReeper frequently.....sometimes Jewish but it's grown way beyond that. Actually in a twist, moderate FReepers push the "NeoCon is Jewish" angle to smear as anti-Jewish non-NeoCons who label folks as NeoCon.

Now PaleoCon is used as a smear to mean Racist or Anti-Jewish or Christian Taliban as they call it.

It's all damned silly and rarely fits well but it's so tempting. I admit to using NeoCon years back myself.

I think the majority of FReepers are a paleo-neo-quasi-Conservative mix with a varying dose of small L libertarian thrown in. I know I'm more paleo culturally than most and that invites smears....that's fine.

In any event if the freeper in question knows who's minority or Jewish or feline or whatever here then obviously they did not just drop in and are watching.

I'm not convinced they are ideological. Some folks are just nasty and get kicks. One of FR's competing sites exists primarily just for that...to be mean and cruel.

Agree 100%

They better get on bended knee and pray that their cover is never blown. There will be repercussions.

'I'm not convinced they are ideological. Some folks are just nasty and get kicks.'

I just don't like them getting their 'kicks' at anyone's expense. Especially mine.

You would be right if people formed their political ideologies out of a vacuum. However, they don't. Worldviews and attitudes and cultural upbringings shape a person's politics. You won't, for example, find many people that would outlaw pornography, but support abortion.

You won't find many Stormfront supporters that will support illegal immigration or a sovereign Jewish states. Therefore, any Stormfront infiltrator will be running with the paleos, and paleos will be much more likely to be convinced to switch over to Stormfront than neocons.

It is true that a lot of people like to fling labels meaninglessly, though.

Well I am pretty far the right and what that means to me is that I am socially conservative,believing the most important right is the right to life.

I believe strongly that the "constitution" should be strictly followed, (Even private property rights which many so-called conservatives have been brainwashed out of) I believe that government has no right to own or manage land even if that means people mess it up for a time.

I believe cigaretts, and pot should be legalized but I would never smoke either.

I believe America must support Israel.

Some say I am too extreme in my beliefs. I have had a freeper seemingly stalk me through threads calling me an extremist.

What am I?
