  • Yeah, because they’re all grandfather claused and legal to own submachine guns.

    Same goes for WW2 Browning M2s. I know a guy who does WW2 reenactments and a guy in his platoon has a working Jeep-mounted quad anti-air gun.

    (That historically didn’t do shit for anti-air but having a working WW2 technical is still fucking awesome)

    Conservatism depends on the context within the nation, but Anglosphere conservatives at a minimum work within a liberal democratic context. Everything listed under ideological liberalism is something “conservatives” used to claim as their values.

    Used to. That “conservatives” are openly embracing fascism as their “third way” is reflected in that very Wikipedia article which has been radically changed from it’s state even from last year as I recall.

    That the article has been changed to claim the “three main ideologies” of the past century as “liberalism, socialism, and conservativism” is some straight up scary revisionist nonsense. Just ask yourself which of those three fascism belongs to and you’ll understand why.

    Churchill was a Conservative. The Australian Liberal Party are conservatives, etc etc etc.

    In other words, there is the ideological definition of liberal, of which conservativism is supposed to be a branch, and there’s the casual usage that means “right winger” and that is contextual and rapidly coming to mean fascist.
