Do liberals understand that you can be a right wing conservative without being a Trumper?

    Of course. If you're a conservative it's easy for you to distinguish between your own beliefs and those of Trump supporters. Just like it's easy for liberals to distinguish between their views and those of socialists.

     

    Problems arise when it's the "other side" who makes the judgment call. When a liberal looks at the conservative ideology it all blends together. Trump supporters = Libertarians = Republicans = Conservatives.

     

    The same thing happens when a conservative looks at the liberal ideology. Biden supporters = Democrats = Liberals = Leftists = Socialists = Communists = Progressives.

    Conservative? 

    Or RIGHTISTS? 

    Doubtful. 

    They also don't understand LEFTISTS who hide among them. 

    The LEFTISTS and RIGHTISTS among us are the ultra extremists, who we don't need. 

    I'm a moderate and can tolerate liberal and conservative views, but not extremist left or extremist right views. 

    The polar extremists can't tolerate each other.  They also can't tolerate society.  We don't need all their selfish trouble.  They both need to go!

    They understand but conflate the two so they have a bigger target to censor.  They're still so afraid of Trump they'll to anything to foster hatred against the right as a whole.

    Absolutely. It’s because it’s not a leftist vs Republican thing, it’s a left, center left, center, center right VS far right thing. I was once a Republican until the GOP threw out  ACTUAL Republican ideals in favor of just supporting Trump, right or wrong. That’s why I’m a supporter of the Lincoln Project and why I supported actual Republicans like McCain. Trumpers are the real RINOs. There’s nothing Republican about them.

    Is this where you pretend that the words "right wing conservative" mean anything else these days?  Where you'll claim that every single thing public conservatives stand for isn't the true "creed" of conservatives?

    I hate to tell this, but you're a conformist, as conservatives have been claiming that the other conservatives aren't the true conservatives since the movement was founded.

    You even used the generic conservative meme as your avatar.

    It should be easy to state your counterexample in your question.  What are your policy differences?

    Of course they do. But the problem is with conservatives that do not support Trump, they are few, and far between.

    Yes. The 2 are currently fighting for control of the GOP. Hope your side wins.

    Yes I do understand that. You can’t be persecuted if you advocate for religious freedom to deny others rights.
