As such my identification with the political right may well be cultural, rather than political or economic - I would never be caught dead at a lefty protest where they scream and shout and carry on, even if I agreed with the cause in question.
Culturally I'm certainly more conservative than liberal (though very moderate by the standards of countries such as the USA), and indeed my conservatism is much more in the late 19th century tradition of Benjamin Disraeli, rather than a more reactionary liberal-conservatism that again one finds common in the US (although I do lean more Republican than Democrat where US politics are concerned.)
I am a civic nationalist who believes in a strong defence force and strict immigration controls. I reject cultural Marxism, political correctness and social engineering, accepting that while social change is inevitable, it must be the people who lead such change and not forced upon them by government - or judicial activism.

Not the whole of Judaism. Plus, judaism has kind of reformed and is considerably Pharisee-less since that temple went down.

Pharisaic Judaism gained dominance after the destruction of the temple. Pharisees leaders were rabbis, not priests.

Still, my point was that the religion of the Pharisees isn't exactly the same Judaism we have today exept for a couple of movements.

I believe America should support Assad against ISIS, I believe we can buy him away from Iran.
America should also support the Pro-Democracy movement in Iran.

I agree. The Assad family has greatly improved Syria and he is the only person who can stabilize the country.

just covering my bases here because white privilege discussion get toxic fast.
In my life I have yet to witness such an event. At 22 I may not have lived long enough but I doubt that is the issue. I have been discrmanted againist in my life. I have found no advantage to being white. I have fought and worked very hard to get anything at all. I find myself leaning toward the fact that "white privilege" Is just an excuse used by the lazy to justify why they have nothing.
I am not denying that racism does not exist. it surely does but in modern day america I have yet to witness anything like aparthied or Jim Crowe.

Because if it is, I'm probably going to say something mean and contrary just to contradict the majority.

*sigh* Fascism is not a right-wing ideology. Far from it in fact, contrary to what left and right-wingers seem to think.
