Proletarian conservatism

[renard_ruse]

Thinking about the recent efforts of the filth scum running New York to drive social conservatives out of the state (not going to happen, but its still offensive and infuriating that these scum feel so powerful to even suggest such a thing), and my thoughts after watching Anthony Wedo on Undercover Boss, inter alia, I have come to the conclusion we need a socially conservative party of the economic left.

That's the only way to stop the social liberals in their drive to create a socially liberal dictatorship. These social liberals are the only people mouthing support for the working class and the poor, even though most of them are rich or upper middle class themselves. They don't ever actually do anything to really make things better for the working class and the lower income, in fact their policies in many ways hurt these very groups. On the other hand, they are more than happy to allow enough power to economic conservatives to prevent real progress for workers, and then turn around and blame them for problems of the working class to get their support.

Its time to take the economic left back from the social liberals.

It won't and cant' happen. The social Conservatisim is a dead end with no way of survival. Your goal here will only finish off the Republicans.

All your accusations of the left being rich are aboslute ignorance.

Well, the Tea Party won't do, it is emphatically not economically leftist.

because it will never work

how are you going to convince the working poor to lower their wages, destroy their unions and be okay with sending their work over seas?

how are you going to convince the poor to keep their taxes at a normal rate and have those wealthier then them have thier taxes lowered?

conservatism is by it's very nature harmful to the poor

if you wanted to create a conservative movement that eschews it's economic polices and doubles down on it's social issues..you'd have a lot better luck

You don't. Remember, renard is calling for a party that is socially conservative, but economically leftist.

Perhaps you should look to the Latinos for your base, renard; most of them are socially conservative Catholics, yet they still have a native tradition of left-wing politics in every country they come from.
