  1. Well, people on the right believe that the best outcome for society is achieved when individual rights and civil liberties are paramount and the role — and especially the power — of the government is minimized. Libertarianism / Minarchism and all the ideologies based on Classical Liberalism are on the far-right side.

  5.  @wonklabs634  "and the right wants to regulate the social, " No. They do not. You are conflating right wing and conservatism. They are two different things.

  6.  @wonklabs634  "both left and right want to increase the size of the government when it comes to their preferred topics." No. Only the left side does. As I said earlier, people on the right believe that the best outcome for society is achieved when individual rights and civil liberties are paramount and the role — and especially the power — of the government is minimized.

  7.  @wonklabs634  "Are you going to call him left wing because he stands for social liberties?? (Gay marriage, sex work, drugs,, etc,.)??????" No. He is still on the far-right.

  9. Dude is nothing like Trump and makes Trump look like a moderate, which he is. Milei is closer to Ron Paul.

  10. He is both. Libertarianism is a far-right ideology.

  11.  @tombranch2261  "Conservatism is traditionally right wing " No, it is not. Maybe in America but as a concept, it has no political alignment. There is no single set of policies regarded as conservative because the meaning of conservatism depends on what is considered traditional in a given place and time.

  12. Actually he is.

People on the right believe that the best outcome for society is achieved when individual rights and civil liberties are paramount and the role — and especially the power — of the government is minimized. Libertarianism / Minarchism and all the ideologies based on Classical Liberalism are on the far-right side.

  16. We Libertarians are on the far-right actually, when it comes to the modern day political spectrum... sure there was a time when Classical Liberalism and Capitalism were on the left side. Not anymore.

  17.  @Max_Power_  "Milei isn't far-right, he is libertarian." He is both. Libertarianism is a far-right ideology.

  25. "I don't understand why Milei is considered far-right." Libertarianism is on the far-right. People on the right believe that the best outcome for society is achieved when individual rights and civil liberties are paramount and the role — and especially the power — of the government is minimized. Libertarianism / Minarchism and all the ideologies based on Classical Liberalism are on the far-right side.

  27.  @tabo01  "Marxism is far left. They had a war." True, they all were. Marxism, Fascism and National Socialism. Well the two latter ideologies were on the right side of Marxism. They had a war because they were competing and rival socialist ideologies who disagreed on how socialism should be implemented. Marxism wanted to get rid of the government to implement Communism, both Fascism and National Socialism wanted to preserve the government, since they thought that Marxism cannot achieve Socialism, and that only the State can properly organize a Socialist Society.

  28. Yes.

  29. " Let's not buy into the rhetoric of "Far Right" titles, Javier Milei is LIBERTARIAN!!! " Same thing. Libertarianism is on the far-right. People on the right believe that the best outcome for society is achieved when individual rights and civil liberties are paramount and the role — and especially the power — of the government is minimized. Libertarianism / Minarchism and all the ideologies based on Classical Liberalism are on the far-right side.

  30. Wrong. Libertarianism is a far-right ideology. Nothing to do with centrism, which would be Social-Democracy.

  31.  @Saint_Wolf_  " Except right wingers are more traditional " Wrong. Being "traditional" is completely relative and completely depends on what country is in question.
    1
  32.  @Saint_Wolf_  "and the Overton window has shifted so left that you think libertaitanism is right wing, " There was a time when Classical Liberalism was on the left side... that changed when the Marxists and socialists in general claimed to be on the left side instead.
    1
  33.  @ImperiumGalleryArchives  "How hard is it for you people to understand there are two axes of left and right-wing, economic and social? " It is called a POLITICAL spectrum for a reason. It's a line, not a quadrant. Social values have no bearing when it comes to politics. You can have as progressive or conservative values all you want in your personal life. Makes no difference as long as you do not try to enforce them via the governing apparatus and if you would, that would only out you as a collectivist since you would be forcing a set of moral and social values unto others while completely disregarding people's personal freedoms and liberty.

  34.  @ImperiumGalleryArchives  : There is just Libertarianism, and some Amurica has nothing to do with this and they know very little about politics in the first place. Cope harder.

  35.  @ImperiumGalleryArchives  "Okay so you're denying the very existence of social politics" It does exist, and it is called 'doing politics wrong'.

  36.  @ImperiumGalleryArchives  : America has nothing to do with this. Cope harder.

  39.  @SuperKonjac  : I have plenty of books. I can personally recommend; "Liberalism: The Classical Tradition" by Ludwig von Mises.
    1
  40.  @SuperKonjac  "Why is social conservatism inherently incompatible with corporatist economics and authoritarianism, for example? And what do you mean by “it’s not even a political ideology”... " The point was, that there is no single set of policies regarded as conservative because the meaning of conservatism depends on what is considered traditional in a given place and time. The central tenets of conservatism may vary in relation to the culture and civilization in which it appears. Thus, conservatives from different parts of the world—each upholding their respective traditions—may disagree on a wide range of issues.

  41. He is both. Libertarianism is a far-right ideology.

  42. "Why do you insist on calling a libertarian right-wing?" Because by definition it is. Libertarianism is on the far-right. People on the right believe that the best outcome for society is achieved when individual rights and civil liberties are paramount and the role — and especially the power — of the government is minimized. Libertarianism / Minarchism and all the ideologies based on Classical Liberalism are on the far-right side.

  43. "Milei is similar to Bukele, and that is not exactly right wing, or left wing. It's a combo." So you are saying that Milei is a Social-Democrat and advocating for Social-Democracy? Really? That is what the left/right combo is.

  44.  @losclaveles  "Libertarianism is a third option," No. Fascism and National Socialism were.
    1
  45.  @tombranch2261  : No. Conservatism is neither left or right by default. It's a political stance against progressivism. Both are relative terms.

  46. Milei is both actually. Libertarianism is on the far-right. People on the right believe that the best outcome for society is achieved when individual rights and civil liberties are paramount and the role — and especially the power — of the government is minimized. Libertarianism / Minarchism and all the ideologies based on Classical Liberalism are on the far-right side.

  47.  @Luis_Stereo  : Well yes, he is not extreme right, which would be Anarcho-Capitalism. He is just far-right, i.e. Libertarian.

    1
  50.  @HeyImRod  "being far-right is associated with being strongly against immigration, the intervention of the government to preserve cultural norms, promoting protectionist policies, being against LGBTQ+ rights" That is called conservatism, which is not left or right by itself.
    1
  51.  @HeyImRod  "having centralized power and in many cases authoritarianism." No. That is exactly what the left is about. Left-wing beliefs are based on the idea society is best served with an expanded role for the government.
    1
  52.  @HeyImRod  " He is not a far-right president." Wrong. Again, people on the right believe that the best outcome for society is achieved when individual rights and civil liberties are paramount and the role — and especially the power — of the government is minimized. Libertarianism / Minarchism and all the ideologies based on Classical Liberalism are on the far-right side.
