Democratic conservatism

Democratic conservatism is characterized by a set of values and beliefs that is distinct from liberalism such as an emphasis on small government, moralism, and individualism. In contrast to classical liberalism, conservatism emphasizes the rule of law, traditional social and moral standards, and respect for authority. It also holds that society should be regulated to preserve the traditional order. In the United States, Democratic conservatism is an ideology that is mostly associated with the Republican Party, though it has a history in the Democratic Party their views on foreign policy, social issues, and military affairs have been criticized. Modern Democratic conservatism believes that religion, civil rights, traditional family values, and free markets should be supported, but that government should be limited, and the federal government should be restructured to be more efficient. They hijacked the Republican Party after the 1990s and began to use the Republican Party to promote their ideology which was the opposition to liberal policies such as abortion, gun control, gay rights, and environmentalism. In other words, they are the Dixiecrats of the 21st century.

Democratic conservatism in the United States is the main reason why Republicans are accused of racism and homophobia.

Democratic Socialism

An anti-capitalist political ideology advocating for socially owned economy (socialism).

Frequently mistaken for social democracy which advocates for economic and social justice but is not anti-capitalist.

Bernie Sanders DOES NOT advocate for democratic socialism, he's a social democrat.

Democratic Crime Reduction

The decriminalization of every known criminal activity, so that nothing is illegal. This also creates a lawless society. Nothing is illegal in a lawless society.

Only an act of God's will can save us from Democratic Crime Reduction. The best democrat is a dead one, and I died 22 years ago. Let us elect my Holy Okie Godfather "Lord Bud" A real spiritual voice of reason.

An island created when 3 people and millions of cats decided to cut off part of North America to create an island called the Democratic Republic of Le Purrr. The island is separated in 3 provinces: Rawr Nation, Claws Nation and Catnip Nation. There are 1 million cats in every province. The country is quite influential towards other countries including Bagdad, Uzbekistan, and Iraq.

For my vacation, I visited the Democratic Republic of Le Purrr.

democratic dictatorship

A form of government where the candidate is elected by popular vote but rarely or never actually enacts any policies that reflect the actual wishes of the constituency. The elected representative can either use subtle diplomacy to deflect criticsm, arrange for various forms of distraction to divert public attention, or be brazen in publicly declaring that policy will be different to popular opinion. Coined by Tim Francis in 2005.

The United States Federal Goverment's track record in regards to foreign policy and engaging military conflict could lead one to the conclusion that it has evolved into a democratic dictatorship. The same could be said for both the Federal Australian and UK governments to some extent, particularly in relation to Iraq and the Kyoto Agreement.
