Question for conservatives and ultracons
Not a trick question. Not trying to be a smart alec. Just curious:
How conservative is conservative enough? There is a spectrum, from ultralib to ultracon, and you are at a certain point on the spectrum that's somewhere toward the ultracon extreme, correct? But there are some who are even further to the "right" than you. Maybe they're so conservative, they don't even use the internet, so we'll never see them here on AFF. Are they too conservative? Or is that even possible?
Think of it another way. You UCs seem to be quite pleased at how closely you hold to certain ideals, doctrines, etc. Your position on the spectrum is certainly better (in your view) than someone who is more lax on these things, right? Well, then wouldn't it be even better for you to push on even further to the right? Those guys that are already there: are they better than you?
Is there a particular spot where everyone to the right of it is OK, and everyone to the left of it isn't OK? And where you put yourself in that region: is it just personal preference?
So, the back to the basic question: how conservative is conservative enough?
