Lol so true Vienna, they could argue for ages about modern and classical liberalism.

both are inevitably going to change, and both will always object to the others viewpoints, but is it not foolish to believe that you can keep things the way they are forever...?

This has no relevance to what we're talking about. But I've been wondering about it for ages and I'd like to know your opinions on it..
Do you think polticial extremism is justified? I mean there always has to be a compromise on issues.. and if your don't push hard enough the compromise probably won't go in you favour. Or do you think that if you are extreme so as to get your cause heard this could go against what your trying to do as people will think your being unreasonable?
(Hope that makes sense)

surely liberalism is an ongoing process, pushing back the constrictions of mass habit to allow greater freedoms? conservatism is the belief that things should be kept how they are.

So because some people may burn an american flag it makes it ok for you t o disgrace the union jack that people have also died for. I think someone's a hypocrite.

but I'm not really talking about violence or any sort of action. More about extreme political views..
For example people think that feminists have gone to far and destroyed the movement while other believe that they had to have such extreme views in order to get equality..

If it wasn't for the Suffragettes women would still be living in the stone ages. So i think extremism does proceed issues other than standing chanting a few slogans.

The "generally accepted" definition is that conservatives want smaller central governments and more individual liberty, while liberals want government to "do more," and individual liberty suffers (as an unintended result)."
