    To anyone wondering, this is a fairly moderate, leaning conservative, but nonetheless fair think-piece on how certain kinds of religious beliefs and political ideas have influenced modern conservative thought, exploring their evolution from classical liberalism.

    It’s wordy, but not bad. It’s not actually the sort of mindless, rhetoric-heavy run-around you often get from the die-hard fascists, where they use 500 words to explain something that only needed 20. Which is what I initially expected when I clicked. This actually does have some value, though, it’s not trying to confuse and waste the time of its audience.

      Well the New Statesman is a centre-left social democratic magazine, so I’d be more than a little surprised if it was sympathetic to the far-right!

      Glad you got something out of it.
