I feel that using the constitution as an objective legal AND ethical standard, any radical conservatism, or even radical leftism can be discredited with legal and ethical reasoning. Socialism, or modern progressivism, and any variations of them, including their ethical foundations will falter when put up against a well thought out radical right wing argument. But a classical liberal argument can be be used to discredit both radical conservatism and radical leftism, or any collectivism.
The true progressive movement in America was the classic liberal movement, not the progressive movement. Modern progressivism is directly tied to the progressive movement in America which called for "genetic purity" and collectivist ideals. Marxism and Nazism were greatly influenced by the progressive movement that took place in the US at the end of the 19th century. The true foundations of modern liberalism is misanthropy, but if we dig deep enough, modern conservatism also embraces population control.
I feel classical liberalism is more legally and ethically sound than modern liberalism, and classical liberalism is superior at refuting radical conservatism.
I challenge any modern liberal here to refute any staunch conservative argument I can come up with. You pick the topic, and I will channel Barry Goldwater to make my arguments, and I will attempt to discredit your viewpoint.
