You are mixing up the far right with the right-liberal part of the Liberal faction.

We live in a chimeric system and it confuses nearly everybody in it. There are always two factions working against a third.

I think political partisans are victims - they have been given a bad political map. Spectrum, compasses - all ideas given credibility by their political competitors. You should ask yourself who benefits from these models. It isn't the left or right. It's a third faction hiding in the blindspot of the other two factions.

I have to admit it's very clever and it took me a long time to realize what was going on. I have to thank outsider science fiction author Liu Cixin who vividly bought the topic to life with his Straussian description of our political order in the Three Body Problem.

For most of the population it's the perfect political Venus Fly Trap and probably the explanation for why the West has dominated the world for centuries.
