So what you're saying is the Great Businessman, author of "The Art of the Deal"... could not make a deal? with his own party??
that may be where you are, in the U.S. teachers tend to be people that couldn't make it in their chose profession or thought they were entering a profession that gave them summers offEducation is more of a selfless profession. It is passing along the assets (knowledge) you have built through your lifetime to a new generation. It is sacrificing your own advantages over other individuals with the aim of improving society as a whole. That's pretty much the definition of leftism.
I've met way more conservatives in tech than i have 'progressives'.As far as tech goes... one of the defining traits of technology is that it's new. The people who do the best at that are the people who are most open to new things. That kinda rules out 'conservative' by definition.
I agree with the Hamster, and the reason why I agree is that the far right in general, demonstrated by many countries through history and most recently in the last four years of the US, have demonstrated a propensity towards regressive, restrictive, and societally destructive policies including taking away the rights of people (abortion choice for example) and relaxing restrictions on corporations to prey on the public with impunity.
The right do not engage in progressive policies that improve the general wellbeing of the people as a whole.
That is why the far right represents a greater societal threat.

thats gold right there folksthat may be where you are, in the U.S. teachers tend to be people that couldn't make it in their chose profession or thought they were entering a profession that gave them summers off
looking back on your life, how many good teachers did you have?thats gold right there folks
im not surprised at all that you think teachers are merely just failures, which is probably why you've never been taught. And it shows

For me its 2.
They didn't ban abortions. Was any such bill even drafted, let alone stood a chance to become legislation?
Relaxing restrictions on corporations is fiscal policy. You can disagree with it on economic terms, no big deal. Hardly a "far left" vs "far right" issue in the US. Corporations "preying on the public" is kind of a funny take on the subject. I could understand if conservatives were doing away with labour laws or something, but you're really reaching.
You singled out abortion but didn't address the general goals of the far right to take power from the people and give it to corporations. You also use emotive phrases like "anti-capitalist" but when you're faced with things that capitalist in nature you return with "fiscal policy".
Could you actually address an argument sensibly as opposed to just saying "right good, left bad" with some examples of where the far right have done good for society?
Thanks.
I challenged his assertion that the far right poses a bigger societal threat.
Expand this statement, why do you challenge it? What reasons do you have that makes you believe that the far right are not a bigger societal threat?
