Like the compassionate message of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount, to share with and help your neighbor is now called Conservative.





And the harsh world of Big City Gangland Politics is called Liberal.How did the definitions of the words ';Liberal'; and ';Conservative'; get switched to meet a political agenda?

Because the extreme right decided they had a monopoly on religion, denouncing everyone who don't follow their right-wing views as Godless and anti-religion. It is only the extreme right's way of manipulating people of faith to support their pro-elitist agenda. Muslim right-wingers do the exact same thing. That is why I think nationalists tend to be very religious.


Not saying all religious people are nationalists, but nationalists can use religion to justify many of their actions.





If you notice, the extreme right tries to make nearly a other views appear to be false religions.





It has occured throughout history, even though the true meaning of liberal and conservative has not really changed.
It's easy when, in practice, ';Conservatives'; and ';Liberals'; do almost identical things.
Jesus was a socialist.
It hasn't I don't think.
