Confident you are smarter than those who are not and also places you in the best of human company...Mozart, Conrad, Dostoevsky, Chesterton, Dickens, Churchill, Havel, Reagan, Kipling, Conan Doyle, James, Belloc, Jerome K. Jerome, Thomas More, Hanson, Solzhenitsyn, Walensa, Socrates... yes the list is endless.

@Abrienda You have no idea then. You're making it up as you go along. In your list only Churchill was a Conservative. Dickens was very critical of the capitalist class and this is blatantly obvious in his work. Further, you've confused criticism of regimes - Solzhenitsyn, Havel, Walensa - with being Conservative. A very dumb and ignorant assumption.
Only here could anyone get away with the ignorant and laughable assumptions you make here

@SW-User You conflate "capitalism" with "conservative"...and I am the ignorant one? As for Dickens you have obviously never read "David Copperfield" nor "Bleak House" nor any of personal letters. And again you stupidly conflate critiquing "the capitalist class" with NOT being conswrvative...you really are quite ignorenton the whole subject,aren't you?

What you know about Central European and Russian writers we could put in a thimble and still have room left over...the political and cultural stands taken by all three men AFTER the fall of Communism speak for themselves but of course you would know nothing about that (Quick! Name the ONE Solzhenitsyn work you've read! And surely you recognize THIS quote - "For us in Russia Communism is a dead dog. For many people in the West it is aliving lion." Communism is on what side of the political spectrum,hon? That was Solzhenitsyn, by the way,as I am sure you could NOT know.)

You are just a cultual manque (pronounced "monkey" in your case)with a degree from some third-rate US/Uk university who has never left her little room and barely speaks English (oh...Havel? My faher knew him and I have read is wrks...in CZECH)living on whatever cultural glacier you live on.

Go...and be stupid no more...though I doubt it

@BlueMetalChick Spoken by someone who has never read any of the authors I named...what's your opinion of H.Belloc, by the way?

"Conservatism" is a cultural affiliation, not exclusively a political one, BlueMetalMoron. Why don't you stick to commenting on things you can really understand, Star Wars or D.C. comics, cause every Every time you mix it up with me on anything else, you look more like a cretin than you did the time before ...and this is no exception,.

Graciebaby · F

You have to believe in a creator, no more no less dumb dumb.
Go read the introduction.

@Abrienda No it’s not a cultural affiliation, it’s an economic philosophy, dipshit. Oh but you didn’t know that, now did you? Maybe you should attempt to learn about what you’re discussing before you say it.
