Define "Right-wing",

OP's posting history is a good start

Oh? Is posting all it takes?, r1

r1 is this bitter person:

Anyone whose opinion I disagree with.

No one is willing to define?

No one is willing to even as much as to DEFINE the term.

Why cant they define it?

Someone with a mixture of a God and an inferiority complex who think helping people is for suckers and they're not a sucker even tho they regularly get scammed and chose to worship a whiny, fat rac/pist who slathers himself in cheap bronzer and highlighter like a drag queen on their first night out.

These assholes think that if something like a huge medical bill or student loan happened to them, it should happen to everyone else, only harder. They gladly hold America back by parroting their sick grandparent's racist and sexist thoughts and tryi to pretend it's some vaunted tradition. They'd love to make women human incubators even while they pass legislature banning masks and free meals in schools. Mostly they just live in the dark ages and prefer it that way with their own weird religion used as a cudgel.

Many misguided social climbers and out and out deviants hide in a right wing ethos imagining that the party of rich people will make people forget they are poor and the party of the "moral majority" will give them cover for their sexual and otherr perversions. Basically the right wing is trying to turn America into Alabama, but with more coal mines, more churches and fewer colleges and b Black people The right wing's only redeeming feature is their goose stepping loyalty to visibly moronic trash candidates and their willingness to cheat, lie and steal to the point of violence fair elections. These are only good qualities for them, it's terrible for the rest of the world and its creatures and their habitat as rightwingers chew it all up and shit it out like so many locusts because there might be a few dollars in it for them.

Trump count

Confederate and American flag lover on pickup truck and in front of their house

Pro blue lives

Listens to other right-wing YouTube's

Uses the word libitard and triggered by CTR

Makes excuses for the January 6 insurrection

Loves gun but hates going to the gym

Refuses to wear a mask and get vaccinated

Thinks red states should form their own country. Idiots

Triggered by the word marxism

Thinks the election was stolen without real proof because trump said so.

Low IQ that parrots other right-wing grifters talking points. Very predictable.

Mostly racist boomers who are scared of change.

R8 R9 don't realize that they've posted their own personal biases, stereotypes and bigotries.

DL posters who claim anyone who doesn't agree with the far left-wing tenets is right-wing do so because they are not intelligent enough to present a counter-argument. Much like the first line of attack or defense has been the liberal use of " racism" or " sexism," accusing a person as being far-right is rarely accompanied by a reason for giving out that label; just the accusation. It's lazy, a sign of an empty mind.

R10 nope. It is reality of most right wingers online and in person. Why do you think stop the steal was so popular among your people. We liberals have to deal with people like you and I am all for succession. I don't want to no longer live with people like you so I am for blue states telling red states to fund their own economy.

All these scamblous words, and yet no one has yet managed to merely define the term.

R11 the pot calling the kettle hot. You guys do it all the time while labelling liberals as Marxists and communists who wants to destroy the country. Let me ask you are liberals all communists? If not then check your people before coming for us.

R13 it's been defined for you. Either you are trolling or you aren't that bright.

Still no written definition....

R12 R14 perfectly illustrate empty-headed reasoning/logic. We/you, us/them, people like you, and lots and lots of assumption to reinforce rigid worldview. All because of a dissident opinion.

No definition? Just ad hominems?

That's what I thought.

Please note: None of the "YURR wight wing" gang has any evidence.

^If you're so fucking smart why don't you do it you pedantic cunt.

Right Wing- Anyone who follows and supports the current Republican Platform, which is ANYTHING Trump wants.

WHEREAS, The RNC enthusiastically supports President Trump and continues to reject the policy positions of the Obama-Biden Administration, as well as those espoused by the Democratic National Committee today; therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That the Republican Party has and will continue to enthusiastically support the President’s America-first agenda;

RESOLVED, That the 2020 Republican National Convention will adjourn without adopting a new platform until the 2024 Republican National Convention;

RESOLVED, That the 2020 Republican National Convention calls on the media to engage in accurate and unbiased reporting, especially as it relates to the strong support of the RNC for President Trump and his Administration; and

RESOLVED, That any motion to amend the 2016 Platform or to adopt a new platform, including any motion to suspend the procedures that will allow doing so, will be ruled out of order.

R17 it is not dissenting opinion when they storm the capitol and tried to overthrow the go vernment. Your people are dangerous and should have their own country.

A pedantic selfish douche bag who holds the future back by holding a firehose in Montgomery, holding a gun for a facist leader or holding a bible to make laws that they themselves won't follow. Is that definitive enough for you Webster?

White middle-middle class homeowners with a persecution complex the size of Yankee stadium.

1% billionaires who want all the protections of a strong US government but don't want to pay a fucking cent for it

Warmongering crusaders who want the US to bomb other countries into submission and then freak out when those same people move to the US after the whole thing falls apart

Resentful suburbanites who demand bowing and scraping from waiters and housekeepers and are outraged if their favorite big breakfast goes up in price 10 cents but hate the immigration that makes it all possible

OP is right wing. He wants to normalize it on here. It just like Defarto wanting to normalize Hitler and nazis.

OP is Defarto.

Unfortunately, Ms. Ad Hominem can't separate bias and stereotype from reasoned discussion.

Endangered

Oh look, Precious Child has weighed in on the DL !

Look at it - JUST LOOK at it

Please Note the Republican party has NO policy platform other than to support TRUMP.

r19, OH, so we've given you several accurate descriptions which you wholly ignore but now you want PROOF. How about this, why don't you define yourself and back up your positions with facts.

r20- The last line is telling, the official policy is to reject ANYTHING except what Trump says, on any given day. How conservative!

Has anyone yet defined "right wing"?

This entire thread is a rant and diatribe. Discussion? What dat?

Yes r29, scathingly. To the point where if I recognized myself in any of the accurate definitions, I'd stick one of my haphazardly stored handguns in my mouth.

OP has a telltale inability to use punctuation, once you see it you'll notice we have a whole bunch of trolls with the exact same problem. A coincidence, I'm sure.

Speaking of sock puppets, I already have two people on ignore who post the exact same thing r27 just did. It's obviously some anti trans troll but why anyone would go to the trouble of using multiple accounts to say the same dumb thing is beyond me.

Pro-gay.

Pro-Jew.

I'm not a "sock puppet', r33

I'm a fully blooded datalounge user.

Have been for around 20 years.

R36 and not bright at all. Clearly you lack the ability to read the room. Most people that post comments on DL aren't rightwing cunts.

Right-wing and how the term is used on DL are different. R 20 pretty much has the classic description of right-wing. On Dl, however, the term is flung about loosely and is given to anyone who does not support the SJW leftist view of the world.

1/10

[quote] I don't want to no longer live with people like you so I am for blue states telling red states to fund their own economy.

Product of a public school education. Such lovely grammar...

r29, There is no one so blind as he who will not see. You have 2 choices, either give us YOUR definition or discuss the definitions you've been given. It's like making the sun disappear with your thumb and declaring "There's no sun" when if fact you are surrounded by it.

This is a troll thread. Stop responding to it. OP has no interest in defining "right-wing." He merely wants to argue that your definition is wrong.

Stop responding.

R40 is that all you have got. The fact you are a rightwinger tells me you aren't as bright or intelligent as you seem.

Right-wing average citizen types are often religious and tend to believe the lies told to them by their right-wing leaders. They take actual facts with a grain of salt and go through mental gymnastics to justify their gullibility. Right-wing leaders seek to maintain the status quo with lies, misdirection and other deception. They coordinate their lies with right-wing media to outrage and ultimately win votes. They're mostly scammers and con artists who have studied their "marks" and keep their followers either blind to what they're really up to, or so outraged that they will vote against their own interests as some form of "revenge".

How about a linked source?

Are you lacking a dictionary, OP, or the intelligence necessary to use one?

[bold]right wing[/bold] /ˌrīt ˈwiNG/

[bold]noun: right wing; plural noun: right wings; noun: rightwing; plural noun: rightwings 1. the conservative or reactionary section of a political party or system. "a candidate from the right wing of the party"[/bold]

2. the right side of a team on the field in soccer, rugby, and field hockey. "he reverted to his normal position on the right wing"

adjective

[bold]adjective: right-wing; adjective: right wing; adjective: rightwing

conservative or reactionary.[/bold]

"his allies are starting to push back against the mostly right-wing criticism"

Seriously, OP, what is your point here? That trolling is very easy, even for an idiot like yourself?

This is a well-defined term with a meaning that hasn't changed since it's first usages. Right wing means conservative (in the political sense) and reactionary. "Conservative" means valuing traditions above all else and promoting a very narrowly defined set of morality and behavior. In practice in generally means a reverence for law enforcement, the military, and hegemonic leadership.

Do you need any of these terms defined, too?

Are you okay?

The wing that is not on the left side or the middle. Or the bottom or the top.

Believing in biological sex

Not blaming white people exclusively for racism

Believing police brutality is myth

Believing those that were shot and killed by cops did not comply

Believing in paranoid conspiracies theories about CRT

A meaningless scareword the oligarchy uses to scare the sheeple into conformity.

The only thing that animates the right wing in the US is hatred of liberals. If it makes liberals mad, no matter what it is, the right loves it.

Child abuse is wrong no matter who does it.

Just when I clear out my DL ignored list, figuring I’ll give the lot of them a second chance to make a first impression, the dregs surface like pink worms after a rain storm.

OP looking for some kind of balm to soothe (i.e., rationalize) his inherent bigotry won’t find it from me. Back on my ignored list for you, although I doubt you’ll be lonely for long.

Here, OP. Now you can stop whining about how no one has properly responded to your annoying whining.

Fascism

R24: Hitler was a socialist so OP is even worse.

Right-wingers are literally worse than Hitler!

[quote]Rampant Sexism

Like saying that boys who like pink are actually girls and girls who don't like pink are actually boys?

Hitler wasn’t really a socialist - he just adopted the term for his party because it was trendy back then.

[R11] Nails it. "Right wing" gives a pass to Far Left/SJW types to express their bigotry (usually against Caucasian of European descent) without repercussions and with full support of other bigots who deny they're bigots. Many examples on this thread, which is full of projection and stereotypes of who they imagine "white people" to be. They seem to want a race war but are too cowardly to admit it, hence the constant baiting, put-downs, one-sided arguments and suppression of facts.

[quote]Powerful and Continuing Nationalism

You mean like the incessant "love it or leave it" rhetoric of neoliberals?

[quote]Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights

Like the rights of gay children not to be mutilated?

[quote]Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause

Like treating January 6 as if it were another 9/11?

[quote]Supremacy of the Military

Tell that to the women and children of Syria or any number of countries where the US staged illegal and immoral wars, coups, and other conflicts incited externally.

[quote]Rampant Sexism

Like making the word "woman" effectively meaningless by letting a fat heterosexual white man in drag call himself one in this junta.

[quote]Controlled Mass Media

This is the first election in which all claims of fraud are systematically dismissed, but far from the first time such accusations have been made.

[quote]Obsession with National Security

Everything since COVID has been to that end

[quote]Religion and Government are Intertwined

Like hiding behind Christianity to defend neoliberal imperialism and increased state control over businesses and individuals?

You mean like Coca-Cola, Disney, and Facebook?

[quote]Labor Power is Suppressed

See above.

[quote]Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts

Giving our tax dollars to an overexposed, overrated sleazebag like LMM is symptomatic of the same conditions that create such disdain

[R62] Left wing nutjob.

No r62 = Matthew “Banned from Twitter” Anscher, whose special brand of complete batshittery transcends the traditional left/right dichotomy.

R64 = deplorable cunt

R64 are you still banned from going within 500 feet of any playground or school? It should be 500 miles.

Define “left wing”, OP.

You first, R67.

No, you first.

Prince John acting like he's Robin Hood.

A true right -wing definition would be the willingness to say or do anything for Trump. To lie when he needs you to, or to cheat when it benefits him, and to be thrown under the bus whenever he's gotten all he can from you.

The point of posting this question here is that I find that the definition of "Right wing" on the DL includes things such as believing in biological sex and the refusal to believe that people ought to be judged by the colour of their skin.

I've never been called right wing at any time in my life, in any part of my life, by anyone in my life, except here on DL, where I am called right wing for believing in biological sex etc etc.

So I decided to ask how people here define it, since it is so different to how it is defined elsewhere.

R26 is contradicting itself:

So, you are an anti-trans troll. Got it.

[R72] I've had the same experience here. You're either full-on indoctrinated or you're "right wing."

Being a ciswhite cismale attracted exclusively to other ciswhite cismales.

I think of right vs left as being extreme - the “wings”. Most people, whether they admit it or not, hover around the center.

The right wing is like pornography. You know it when you see it.

Matthew, you should really get help for your meth addiction.

Define it? Lol.

You, you moronic cunt.

So now not cutting off your dick is "right-wing"?

Matthew’s MO (for those who don’t already know) is to introduce the topic of “forced transing” of children (which has literally never happened) into every thread, no matter the topic, then accuse anyone who calls him on his BS of being a shit-eater and/or Nazi and/or a pedophile.

He has been red-tagged repeatedly, but like herpes, he keeps coming back. Everyone please F&F the inevitable shit-eating Nazi pedo accusation he will make response to this. Which, if it results in yet another red-tagging, might keep him away for a day or two. Maybe.

Being a man, unless you were born a woman.

I love how the trans-hating Nazis see themselves as poor innocent victims of evil liberal puppetmasters. So predictable.

[quot]Now you can stop whining about how no one has properly responded to your annoying whining.

People have literally copied/pasted the dictionary definition of right wing. OP isn't interested in actual replies, just obvious trolling. he's clearly a tool.

I am OP r85, and I am exclusively interested in genuine DL replies, not in dictionary definition replies. I'm perfectly capable of finding the dictionary definition.

What I want to know is how DLers define it, since it is only on here that I see standard central and even left wing views (such as belief in biological sex, in women-only spaces, in not judging people by the colour of their skin) regularly declared on the DL to be "right wing" views. So this is my attempt to understand more about why that is.

So far I haven't gotten much, merely people calling me "right wing" - and worse - merely for asking, people posting dictionary definitions, and people avoiding the question.

Right wing = opposite of left wing.

OP is a troll, r87

More avoiding the question from, r87 and another avoidance plus insult from r88, right on cue.

I'm beginning to believe that the people who shout "RIGHT WING!" on DL cannot actually define what they mean by that term.

R89/OP, Why don’t YOU tell us what you think “right wing” means, instead of being a whiny cunt? Your question has been amply addressed. Now it’s your turn.

Or can you not handle having your anti-pluralism, anti-democratic views dissected and ultimately dismissed?

What are you afraid of? Hmmm?

… and no, shrieking “TRANS” over and over does not constitute an ideology.

Like people across the political spectrum, right-wingers have definite views on taxation, the role of government, education, the environment, trade, foreign policy, and many other issues besides gender. Let’s hear yours. Unless, that is, you’re too much of a coward.

I asked you, r90 / r91, and you have failed to answer. Over and over again.

Why do you expect me to answer your question when you refuse to answer the question I put to you first?

Were you raised in a barn?

Your question has been answered over and over, but you refuse to acknowledge or accept any of the responses as valid.

Which makes you a cunt - a very tiresome one.

Answer the question at r90 or STFU.

No, r93, this is my thread. You can shut the fuck up, and get off it too.

Yeah R94,, this is your thread. And it’s fucking garbage, darling. The whole “your numerous answers are not responsive unless I say so” schtick is myopic and petty and is itself a blatant answer to your original query.

OP is a troll.

I guess OP is right in that there are definitions of what one would expect "right wing" to mean, it's just that Trump came along and all the people who pretended to believe in family and morality and limited government and low taxes and a strong military threw all of it out the window to support a two-bit flim-flam artist from Queens.

So now, at least in america, "right wing" means hating liberals and immigrants more than, oh i dunno, the Russians.

Yes, OP, you're coming off as the King demanding to be amused. If it's an answer you agree with, or disagree with, you should point out which and let us know why you've judged as such. Instead, you've poked in to be a bossy bitch, and occasionally hand waved that none of these will do. You're tiresome.

Good point, r97, and those same people went along with Trump as he lied, cheated, conned, and attempted to steal, AND as he threw our institutions under the bus as he was caught being so sloppy with all his cons. The FBI, Justice Dept, CIA, all of them were called commie DEEP STATE, disloyal, ect, by Trump as he was caught red handed trying to grift.

Any institution the "right" used to deify - the military, the FBI, Harley-Davidson, baseball, the NFL - were thrown in the toilet immediately if they displeased Donald. It was really something.

So to answer OPs question (that he doesn't really want answered, he'll just keep moving the goalposts because he's an asshole), right-wing is whatever Donald Trump says it is from hour to hour.

[quote] So now, at least in america, "right wing" means hating liberals and immigrants more than, oh i dunno, the Russians.

Translation: not being xenophobic against who R97 wants you to be xenophobic against.

No, dear. It's thinking a certain set of your fellow Americans are a bigger threat to you and your family than *actual threats. And thus treating them with violence and brutality is just self-preservation.

It's a great first step towards stripping people of their rights and freedoms and feeling good about it. This is why you're a Nazi.

“Define "Right-wing"”

Evil, greedy, hateful, dishonest, untrustworthy, horrible, dangerous, homicidal etc...

But a certain set of Americans is a threat to me and my family.

Oh, R104? Which ones? College professors teaching CRITICAL RACE THEORY??? Central American immigrants who want work cleaning houses or working in restaurants? Dr. Seuss??

If so, then the Republican party is for you.

CRT does nothing to combat antisemitism or homophobia unless it's at the hands of white Christians.

Not everything can do everything, darling. My shaving cream can't cure cancer. That doesn't mean I throw it away.

Now that's racist, not to mention a pretty lousy analogy in and of itself.

Stay away from Deplorables. They will drive you crazy. Keep 50 feet from them and do not engage.

The term itself has classist connotations.

It's so depressing that R108 thinks he's being witty and really OWNING THE LIBS by calling everything racist. You know JUST LIKE THE LIBS DO!! TASTE OF THEIR OWN MEDICINE!! OWNED!!!

Maybe he high-fives himself.
