Ed West: Why conservatives have lost almost every political argument since 1945

Bunty McCunty
​Why the entrenched class system has lost every political argument since 1945? That makes no sense whatsoever.

​The Left embrace 'by any means necessary' and 'the ends justify the means'. The Conservatives are very naive in comparision. The idea of 'moral victory' as they lose explains a lot.

​Just look at the Catholic Church

​Not sure I agree. Conservatism is the dominant politics of the modern world. Even when conservatives are not in power, conservative ideas and policies set the shape of society and the economy.

4:37
Elizabeth Blackwell
​Even left wing governments uphold the fusion of disruptive capitalism and social traditionalism ergo conservative.

​I think when you're a 30+ conservative you don't argue with young lefties. because, we used to be them and we know there's no point arguing with them

​I wonder how much art and creativity will be permitted under sharia law. by hyper moralizing western life and politics the left may destroy western civilisation.

​Conservatism was always Theocracy Lite and was created as a defence against the ideas of the French Revolution. A merely defensive ideology will not protect your society.

​@ Michele P Nigel Farage still class himself a Classical Liberal, doesn't he?

13:07

​@Bunty McCunty Conservatism is not up to the job of fighting feminism and Cultural Marxism.

13:47
Jean de Valette
​@William H The Reformation is only conveniently retrofitted as 'conservative' by conservative evangelicals in AmericaIn truth Catholics were the conservatives in the Reformation. See: St. Thomas More

14:06
Claire Khaw
​@Kit Conservatism is just not up to the job because it was always a defensive ideology against the ideas of the French Revolution. Conservatism was really Theocracy Lite.

14:33
Claire Khaw
​Conservatism = being middle class and having gone to a good school. Such people will always be in the minority.

14:52
Claire Khaw
​@888rogermoore Christianity is kaput.

14:54
Bunty McCunty
​@Claire Khaw -- I don't think it needs to be. I think those things are fetishised by a tiny minority of loudmouths, while people are inherently conservative. See the last election results.

Jean de Valette
​Oh ffs Clare. Spare us your Marxist University bollocks, please

​conservativism is founded on faith, family and the nation state. pure and simple.

15:26
Claire Khaw
​@Elizabeth Blackwell What are the Conservative ideas you can think of? It was a Conservative Prime Minister who legalised gay marriage.

15:57
Claire Khaw
​@Elizabeth Blackwell "Even left wing governments uphold the fusion of disruptive capitalism and social traditionalism ergo conservative." No idea what you are trying to say.

16:12
Jean de Valette
​Ed West talking bollocks on tidy desks meaning conservatism.

16:13
William H
​jean, I'll look at that. I thought the issue was the church had become corrupt and Luther tried to re ignite some truth

16:25
Claire Khaw
​@William H Who do you argue with?

17:27
Claire Khaw
​@British LA Secular Koranism is a New School of Sharia that has no intention of not permitting art and creativity. By the way, I have met Ed West.

17:45
British LA
​conservatism is dependent on a deep knowledge of history and cultural heritage. the modern, liberal, reactionary conservatives have effectively become the new Whigs.

17:48

​@Nick Garrott Kindly explain the difference.

​we need a whole new system left right thing does not work anymore westminster is disfunctional

18:21
Claire Khaw
​@Jean de Valette Yes, he is talking bollocks. I should be invited on New Culture Forum, but you can check out both my channels.

19:38
Claire Khaw
​Conservatism and Christianity are both kaput.

19:46
Curtis Loftis
​A huge difference between the left and right: the left hires its people-for every job. The right does little of this. It creates a massive Left presence in every entity of influence.

19:51
William H
​I don't know about America religious movements. I don't know how interesting that is

19:53
Jean de Valette
​Ed West would "love not to be conservative"? Ed West is not conservative, so he needn't worry.

​@Claire Khaw Christianity kaput!!!!! lol...watch this space! 😉

20:27
Curtis Loftis
​America is post Christian

20:52
Claire Khaw
​@Nick Garrott Why don't you appear on my channel to tell me how and why I am a moron?

21:33
Claire Khaw
​@M. Allan What does my husband think about what and why should you care if I have a husband, let alone what he thinks?

22:18
M. Allan
​Claire im just poking fun. relax

22:18
Claire Khaw
​@Crystal J Watch both my channels on why Christianity is kaput. Ed West's mama is Irish Catholic.

23:05
Crystal J
​@Claire Khaw catholicism and Christianity not necessarily the same thing!!! My RESURRECTED leader and king aint finished yet!!

23:16
Claire Khaw
​@M. Allan Unlike the New Testament, there is nothing in the Koran saying women should be quiet either in mosque or anywhere else.

23:43
Curtis Loftis
​In America, Christians gave their children to the Leftwing school/university system to be educated. They came out agnostic.

23:51
Claire Khaw
​@Crystal J Christianity includes Catholicism and saying Christianity is kaput implicitly means Catholicism is also kaput.

24:23
Crystal J
​@Claire Khaw they are 2 different things ....

25:00
Claire Khaw
​@Curtis Loftis Christianity is kaput and democracy is dementia. I am the only political commentator prepared to say this again and again and again.

25:08
Curtis Loftis
​The right just gave the institutions of cultural and political power...they did so as the leaders of the right were making lots of money. the right was sold out...

26:24
M. Allan
​Diversity, disaster.

26:32
Claire Khaw
​@Crystal J You don't appear to have noticed that Christ is deceased or are you an idolater who worships an executed revolutionary as the co-equal of the supreme and eternal Abrahamic God?

26:57
Curtis Loftis
​Christianity as a political force is kaput (sadly to me). Democracy follows culture so our brand is not helpful, but thankfully, there are not a lot of competitors in that arena

27:31
Curtis Loftis
​But Christianity is alive in well in certain groups.

27:51
Claire Khaw
​@New Culture Forum Channel How likely are you to invite me on your channel to explain my proposal for a one party theocracy governed by the principles of Secular Koranism?




2:00  Because of the decline of Christianity, the default religion of university educated women is leftism.

3:00  "Democracy is against Conservatism." Democracy is dementia.

5:00  Comedy is now university-educated comedians sneering at the lower middle class ie people who have not their opportunities.

10:00  Brexit, Nationalism and the Reformation

11:00  Catholic identity was stronger than national identity.

11:30  Political tribalism in America. It is really more fundamental: Patriarchy v Matriarchy. Yin v Yang. The eternal battle of the sexes is being played out in the Western political establishment. Only I know where the battlelines really are.

12:00  The distinction between religion and politics is a distinction without a difference.

13:00  Conservatism as a political philosophy as well as a state of mind

19:00  Ed West was too gutless to accept a very well paid job at Breitbart being offered by Steve Bannon. What a shame he won't offer me a job. Did his wife put her foot down then?

23:00  "Social proof" and cultural values

25:00  Diversity

26:00  Repurposing stories

28:00  Dominic Cummings

30:00  BBC licence fee

31:00  "Gentleness of Conservatism"

Is Ed West more or less depressing than Peter Hitchens, who it seems has been hired specially to demoralise Conservatives?
