Left–right politics (secular)

The history of how the terms Left and Right wing evolved is covered elsewhere (brief recap: the terms became known during the 1789 French Revolution, based on the seating arrangements in their Parliament, with those who wanted to conserve the old ways seated to the right of the speaker, and those who always wanted change and reform on the left). Since then, it has come to mean gangsters on the left, and individualists on the right.

It became obvious to all but hypocrites that what modern Conservatives now "conserve" are simply the classic liberal values of the Enlightenment - of individual human rights to free expression, self defense and choice of association. The gangster left only wants freedom for itself, and a right to oppress its enemies.

Philosophically speaking, the question seems to remain: "Do individuals create groups, and/or can individuals only exist because pre-existing groups (of individuals) create and protect them?"

The right takes the former position, where groups don't matter because all group identities depend on the real live individual humans within them, so everyone should have the exact same equal rights under the law, regardless of any other group identity membership politics. They believe in the rule of law, and form into Republics (or monarchies, if the monarch is inclined to defend their own property properly) to enshrine equality of opportunity over coercive equality of outcome. Rightists believe in free-will self-reliant choice and that all rights must come with reciprocal responsibilities. They believe in self-control and restraint from any urges to attack thereby innocent other people first, and that our only real right is to not be attacked first, and our only real responsibility is to not attack others first. Attacking second is a right but it's also not the responsibility of individuals to be beholden to the criminals' who attacked them firsts' schedules and timetables, although it is their right, and they also believe that vengeance is justice.

The left takes the latter might-makes-right and ends-justify means position, where only one's group membership status matters, because larger majority groups always oppress lesser minority ones (unless and until they don't) - but never expect consistency from hypocrites. They at least pretend to believe that they can vote their way out of reality and the laws of science itself, and so form into Democracies, where everything is always up for grabs, there are no real rules or laws, and there are no real crimes nor criminals because as life is too complex for anyone to really ever be able to understand, we're all equally helpless but heroic victims at the mercy of inevitable forces forever beyond our control, and so no real free-will self-reliant mens-rea/guilty mind criminal intent can ever really exist either. Hence leftists don't believe in responsibilities but only in the false right to become and remain irresponsibly wrong. They don't believe in sequential morality, in predatory attacks-first versus defensive counter attacks-second, because even if such things exist, they are forever beyond our comprehension. So to leftists, there is no difference between the type of equally-helpless fellow victim who routinely seems prone to attack thereby innocent other victims first, and those who don't. Everyone is a victim except those "hypocritical" criminals who declare that free-will choice exists and want to punish heroic victims for "committing crimes."

And against those criminals, it is the right and responsibility of all leftist governments to make laws to prevent their crimes from ever occurring. Thus every "positivist," liberal "law" is a crime, because they all reverse the onus of proof burden to pre-judge everyone guilty until probably never proven innocent. At most and best, they only grant temporary privileges through licenses and permits; they certainly don't defend our permanent natural rights to become and remain free from government attacks on our liberty.

The whole Left/Right paradigm can only exist in a rigged system of might-made "right" mob-rule "democracy" where the ignorant low-information masses of voters can be conned into voting for crime.

"Democracy" itself is a "Leftist" model, because it promotes mob rule by definition, as opposed to and by a rule of law based Republican model.

Positivist "law" (crime) is based on the false Christian and communist version of the Golden Rule of Law: "Do unto others that which you would have them do unto you" - which presupposes people will inevitably do things to you unasked, and you will accept them in advance - as opposed to the moral, negative-rights version - the real law - of "Do NOT do unto others" anything unless and until their consent is given first, which was at least tacitly endorsed by the National Socialists of Germany, at least according to the main leader of their enemies, Winston Churchill:

“In England, everything is permitted except what is forbidden. In Germany, everything is forbidden except what is permitted. In France, everything is allowed, even what is prohibited. In the USSR, everything is prohibited, even what is permitted."

— Winston Churchill - 

So basically Germany was the only sane place, and Churchill at least sub-consciously knew it, too.

Under that most basic and simple Golden Rule of Law moral principle, all is forbidden between people as a standard default setting, unless and until very specifically agreed on in advance.

Under the Leftist/Socialist/Marxist/Communist "Brazen Rule of criminal chaos" model or version, everything is allowed to be done to anyone anywhere at any time in advance of getting permission, especially if and when it's done by a larger might-made right mob such as "the government," and best of all when it's done in the name of doing it to you but only in order to do it for you - "for your own good, think of the children!"

The left's version is a dog-ear-dog, zero-sum and winner-takes-all model where, just as under the so-called "free market" capitalist model, needs become commodified and subject to supply and demand. but where demand is infinite, control of supply is total slavery.

In a sane world of National Socialism, basic needs would not only not be taxed, but would be guaranteed to citizens - and in fact such basic needs defense would be the government's only real purpose:

"The state is only a means to an end. Its end and its purpose are to preserve and promote a community of human beings who are physically as well as spiritually kindred - states which do not serve this purpose have no justification for their existence. They are monstrosities."

Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, 11:2.

While under both communism and capitalism - and capitalism inevitably becomes communism - the ruling oligarchs not only can but invariably do withhold all rights to needs from the people to ensure their compliance:

"You will own nothing and he happy about it - or else!"

So, in the Leftist model, all individuals' rights: to self defense; to own property to defend one's right to life; and to speak freely to ask for help to oppose tyranny - do not exist; only the state has rights, and that means in reality only those real live individual humans who control the state, as control is effectively ownership - while the rest of the (non-leader) individual citizens have no rights to resist their leaders, but only the responsibility to become and remain their (as "the state's") slaves. The state, then, is nothing but a false image projected to shield the criminals.

In the "Right wing" model, only the real live individual human citizens have rights, while "the state" only has the responsibility to defend those citizen rights.

In the former, Leftist model, the state has not only the right but also the responsibility to defend only its self by always "defensively, pre-emptively" attacking betraying subverting and undermining the citizens, while in the latter she state has no rights or responsibilities except to defend the people.

As Adolf Hitler asserted, if the state does not defend the people, then it does not deserve to exist.

So in the end, Left versus Right is collectivist idolatry versus individualist humanity.

The "Eternal Struggle" of Leftist democracy is against "oppressive" rules and against the one true Law itself - the communists' "permanent revolution" ideal is against "wrongthink" - that which opposes the state's right of total control over, and the total subordination of, the individual citizens' rights freedoms personalities and will.

The Left is all about authority - about doing what one is told regardless of what is right - while the Right is all about morality and doing what is right, regardless of what one is told.

Leftist "thought" does not trust the "equally-helpless perpetual victim" individuals' capacity for thinking, and therefore imposes force to ensure compliance with its criminal hypocrisy - and this can include the "soft" power of "social credit" (hypocrisy) scores, where if one fails to comply, he is deprived of state-controlled food - and life.

What we see as Left vs Right isn't only collectivist gangsters vs self-reliant individualists, it's far more basic than even that: it's hypocrisy vs honesty.

We've currently got the Party of Responsibility vs. the Party of Irresponsibility. And only one of these should not be allowed to continue to exist.

Therefore, the Republicans are only the party of immoral "ethics" (or how to ameliorate the damages one's choice to break the Golden Rule of Law moral principle engenders) while the Democrats embody full-blown mob-rule gangster extortion tactics and ultimately slavery. AT BEST, the polemic duality is one of the Parties of self-reliant individualism and Responsibility, vs. excuse-making hypocritical Irresponsibility.

Because there is no "balance" between good (honest reasonable, rational, sane, logical, fact-based objective scientific truth) and evil (lying criminal fraud hypocrisy). Why would anyone want less good, and more evil, "just to be fair!"? Evil is unfair by definition.

It's also a case of Feminine vs. Masculine: instant submission to one's false emotional fear-based need for security in communism or the herd, versus one's rugged self-reliant individualism and self respect.

The "Left vs Right" (criminal might-makes-right gangster vs law-abiding right-makes-might individualist) trope IS a real paradigm, but it only describes symptoms of lying hypocrisy vs honesty.

If someone is a fearful, literal "psycho-path" (Greek for "thought-killer") they will want to form into ever-larger gangs for their own "protection," (but really only to increase their might-made extortion "rights" while diluting and decreasing their individual responsibility) and so are "lefties" whether they place that particular label on them selves or not.

So, what's a "right winger?" It's any normal person who wakes up enough to take a bit of time off from minding their own businesses to temporarily band together to vote to not be extorted any more by group-might-makes-rights-worshiping "leftist" gangster criminals.

Those individualists with spines will act as what is known (to the leftist gangster extortionists) as 'right' wingers. Gangsters despise individualists because their existence makes them look like the cowards they really ultimately are.
