    Liberal Authoritarian? | Not another Conservative!

    Hello Politic Community,

    My name is Grant and I am a student at the Sixth Form College. I currently study Politics, Law, Use of Mathematics, Financial Management, Communication and Computer Modelling. In my spare time I like to debate political issues with others, and like to expand my knowledge on economics which I have taken up as a home study.

    I will warn you in advance, some of my posts will seem exceptionally odd or provoking. Please note that this is intention because I generally get a better replies from such posts.

    I also thank the few members who have already given me a warm welcome.

    Regards,
    Grant

    You needn't worry about running across any conservatives here. There are only a few.......and most of them would be considered liberals in my neck of the woods.

    Welcome,

    Welcome,
    Tantal
    Whereas Tantal would be considered a fascist in ours

    I'm joking, to clarify. But he'd probably be much further right of the Tories...

    Consider this an 'official' welcome, LA

    Hi and Welcome LA/Grant

    As Tantal has mentioned there are other Conservative leaning members , myself and Tete being two . We do our best to persuade Dougie about the error of his ways ... ... but he remains annoyingly immune

    Look forward to reading some of your deliberately provocative opinions ....

    I am sure you will see some soon. Usually, when working out how people think and debate, I find provocative answers are best. whether or not they are your opinion.

    In my experience, being called a fascist if more of a compliment than in insult.

    You should all take the political compass test to find out - The results can be... interesting.

    It's like that old scenario espoused by Terry Pratchett - the crew march up to the captain's door, knock on it and the leader shouts 'we're having a mutiny, and chucking you overboard' and the captain says 'you and what army?' The leader suddenly feels the gaping chasm of vanished people behind him...

    I don't know where all the socialists have gone!

    Or a way to say 'Nazi' without anyone invoking Godwin's Law

    And also controlling countries (Israel), nationalism and taking over parts of the world to which you have no claim (Israel again).

    The U.S. invaded Israel? When did this happen?

    Did I say invade? I said control and takeover. By takeover, I meant something more subtle than war. By making Israel dependant on US support, they have effectively taken them over.

    But that is a debate for another day, and this is LA's welcome thread
