[@Grimhildr] I'm 18, and want to be a doctor. I have... interesting politics, in that depending on the context I can seem anything from democratic socialist to Marxist-Leninist, Red Army, Communist shit. But despite that, I have an enormous amount of respect for liberals and conservatives both, because ultimately me and them share a great deal of commonality in that we want to make things better for people through application of policy and politics.

Thing is, there are barely any real conservatives left. The Tory party are driven entirely by greed and classist malice rather than any desire to build stability and improve quality of life for people, and they make cuts and auction public property not meritocratically but nepotistically. They're generally either corporatist or genuinely fascist. I wish labour had proper opponents, not these scum. 

Like... a real Conservative might be making cuts to public funding, but they'd probably mostly leave the NHS alone on account of all the evidence supporting its good funding. And what they did cut would be that which is unnecessary or that which we can do without. That's been done before and it HAS helped, it's just not what's going on.

Sigh. Tory party isn't respectable these days. Weren't always in the past either, but they've had good moments.
