Conservative Liberalism

"Not to be confused with Liberal Conservatism."

Conservative Liberalism (ConLib) is a political ideology which derives liberal (primarily  classical liberal) positions from a  conservative worldview. Conservative liberals as such generally as such generally tend to form the right-wing of liberal movements, as such it is sometimes called Right-Liberalism (RightLib). Conservative liberalism overlaps but should not be confused with Liberal Conservatism which is the inverse. It also overlaps with National Liberalism.

It's important to know that ConLib is more or less, a fusion of Conservatism with  Classical Liberalism, while  LibCon  is more related to either  Modern Liberalism or  Neoliberalism and is  culturally centered.

History
The origins of Conservative Liberalism can be traced back to philosopher Edmund Burke. Burke's views were a mixture of conservatism and republicanism. Burke supported the American Revolution but had a sense of disgust for the French Revolution. Conservative Liberalism accepts the ideas of economic liberalism but believed that it should be secondary to the conservative socio-cultural ethic.

 * [[File:Socdem.png]] Social Democracy - I prefer [[File:Patcon.png]] PatCon over you...
 * [[File:Rpop.png]] Right-Wing Populism - You do a good job at promoting my values, policies and my candidates and I appreciate the support, even though you say some nonsensical things sometimes... Don't want to be rude, but you should know when to shut up sometimes. Just sayin'.
 * [[File:Altl.png]] Alt-Lite - Same as RightPop, although more questionable. Just stay away from [[File:Altr.png]] him and we'll be fine.
 * [[File:Hamiltonianism.png]] Hamiltonianism - Hamilton was okay, I guess.
 * [[File:Monarch.png]] Monarchism - Just because I'm conservative, that doesn't mean necessarily that I like you! Be more like [[File:Conmon.png]] them and then we'll get along.
