Well none of them deliver on what I want either. But at least the Tories are less fucked up than the Liberals and don't actively oppose what I want.

If you're a Libertarian then you're against the government seizing people's private property. Period. We're not ideologically pure libertarians, and never claimed to be, just said that we both have a libertarian streak, but are still Tories. Like Dougie says, a Red Tory yes, but a Tory nonetheless.

Well in the case of pot legalization, the Tories were clearly on the wrong side of that, and while I side with the Tories far more than the Liberals in most cases, last election was a situation where the Tories deserved to be punished for failing to move the football and turning the ball over on downs, simple as that.

Yup, but voting Liberal in 2015 was the right call, can throw the Liberals out of power later, and regroup with a better leader than Harper, who hopefully will actually move the ball before he turns it over on downs. Don't have to be a pure partisan and vote Tory no matter how badly they fuck up, that's not the way I prefer to roll. What good are Tories who are basically Liberals anyway? Nah, you gotta throw those bums out when they pull that shit, trying to hold onto the ball forever can backfire in the long-term. Edited February 17, 2019 by Yzermandius19

A real Libertarian, or one with Libertarian sympathies, would be horrified by the Canadian Charter and what it's become. It's an excuse for judge-made law to trump what people want, even what their political representatives want, based on the ideological and social beliefs of the judges.

I am horrified, however as a Tory, I am bound by my oath to the Queen of Canada, to resist the enemies of the Crown and defend the Queen's Peace. Her Majesty defends the Charter, I defend Her Majesty, a Red Tory yes, but a Tory none the less.

A belief in a individual rights and liberty. Red Tories prefer more government intervention than Ron Paul would be comfortable with, but there is obviously significant crossover there nonetheless. You are simply too focused on the differences and not the similarities, because Libertarian and Red Tory are not mutually exclusive terms, as you insist they are.

Dougie93 Posted February 17, 2019 Report Posted February 17, 2019 It is horrifying to go over the top when the whistle blows as well, but for a Tory, an oath to the Queen is unto death as necessary.

Show me one successful majority atheist civilization in history. I see none, I do however see a boat load of successful majority religious civilizations. Atheists have a lower birth rate, the Theists are outbreeding you, hate to break it to you, actually no I don't, I love rubbing that in your face. The Atheists don't have enough children to pass their "non-beliefs" down to, the Theists on the other hand..... Religion is here to say, no matter how little utility atheists think it has.

Atheism is dying, due to lack of breeding among atheists. The Religious simply have more kids to pass their beliefs down to, and they are already in the majority by a solid margin. Talk to me when the atheists are outbreeding the religious, when declaring the death of religion, or you have no leg to stand on. You're wishful thinking won't make religion go away instead, and ad hominem attacks aren't going to win you this argument either. /shrugs Edited February 17, 2019 by Yzermandius19
