The incomprehensibility of "the other"

Interesting, and true:

  • The honest liberals want to protect the weak, and find libertarian and conservative ideals indistiguishable for their lack of protection of the weak.
  • The honest conservatives want to preserve the good we have now, and find liberal and libertarian ideals indistinguishable for their lack of preservation of the current good.
  • The honest libertarians want to enhance liberty, and find liberal and conservative ideals indistinguishable for their lack of freedom.
There's a lot more, all food for thought.

That reminds me of another saying
I learned years back:

- Liberals want to free the people
and control the money.
- Conservatives want to free the
money and control the people.
- Libertarians want to free the
money and the people.
