    Liberalism and conservatism are both offshoots of economic liberalism, favoring the rights of private property owners. Read a book

    Support of private property does not make someone right wing. That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. And it’s not a criteria listed anywhere on any definition.

    I mean if you’re under feudal relations supporting capitalism makes you progressive, but right now we’re operating under socialized production with capitalists constraining production around exchange value so yeah supporting maintaining capitalism is right wing. Let socialized production benefit society.
