Liberty is just one piece of a human societal equation, cooperation is the/an-other. Liberty has been the priority of the Right, while co-operation (democracy, equality, fairness, etc.) has been -- IMO in direction reaction to (real and perceived) excesses of the Right -- the priority of the Left. Both need to be respected to have a healthy society. My probably silly hope is that someday their artificial separation, and war, started at some point (by Marx?) after the French Revolution that introduced them (liberte, egalitie, fraternite) will soon be repaired.

What we're fighting here is neither Right nor Left, it's Totalitarian-hijacked Leftism. But as Peter points out, no matter what happens, we're going through the fire first. Unfortunately, most humans love war; even when they eschew bloody kind, they are always taking bloodthirsty sides one way or another, and whether about imaginary or real things.

[ EDIT: Clarified above that it's R and L on the one hand, and Totalitarianism on the other; and corrected an unforgiveable Eric vs Peter mistake :P ]
