    Now you’re showing either extreme dishonesty or an inability to read. They didn’t say the left and right are random incoherent thoughts. They implied that’s your position, which it seems to be, and said this isn’t the case.

    Supporting capitalism while supporting social policies is not a contradiction. That’s the basic platform of new liberalism, and is an example of the capitalist order asserting its primacy. As the other guy said - adding regulations to capitalism means preserving capitalism. Adding social safety nets to capitalism is shielding capitalism from criticism.
