realbitcoin.. seriously

if a right wing liberals is a left wing authoritarian
if a left wing liberals is a right wing authoritarian

then you are not making a point
can you stop using wings out of context..
im actually going to say before carlton meandered off topic he had an earlier rational point

The left/right isn't a political spectrum, it's a divide and conquer tactic, whereby liberalism gets split into economic liberalism and social liberalism, and then one side is fed arguments about why the other is the source of all problems.

The best approach is to never use the left/right concept, as you're always going to look like a reflexive partisan, one step away from using the non-argument "you're just one of them!"

This is why libertarianism and the various other anarchy inspired political ideologies are popular among Bitcoiners; they appear to be left-right blind, taking ideas from the left or the right as long as they promote liberty.
