On the issue of slavery. I'm not sure about other issues.

@WoodyAq Other issues, as well. Learned it in History class in college. Pretty much every aspect switched.

@Tatsumi A lot of the issues that divide the current left and right are fairly modern, though, aren't they?

@WoodyAq Ehh, it all boils down to freedom vs security; equality vs established classes; individualism vs collectivism; tradition vs progression; fear of tyranny vs fear of....I forget which fear the left had. Maybe corporate tyranny.
