You believe in preserving individual liberties and free markets while maintaining traditional values and social stability.
Conservative liberalism is a political ideology that combines liberal values and policies with conservative stances, or more simply, a variant of liberalism that incorporates conservative underpinnings. This ideology is primarily concerned with preserving the social order and upholding individual liberties, while also advocating for a free-market economy. It is a more moderate form of liberalism that seeks to balance individual freedom with social stability.
The roots of conservative liberalism can be traced back to the 19th century, during the age of enlightenment. It emerged as a…

Why do you believe some traditions persist through generations, and can they adapt without losing their core values?
@9RTN5N511mos11MO
I believe the core of a human- our WHY should hold strong. Eating healthy, taking care of ourselves ETC
@9RTN2WW11mos11MO
Traditions can indeed persist through many generations and adapt without losing their core values - but they are usually best left to the past, especially if they are instrumentalized in order to enhance an oppressive and unjust status quo.
@9RTMV9G11mos11MO
Family; family is strong within each one of us, and as children, we only remember the main parts. Therefore we can alter it without letting go of the original values.
@9RTKD7L11mos11MO
Most traditions can survive adaptation without the loss of any core values. A good example of this would be the LDS church. In nearly every aspect, the church appears as conservative as any other Christian denomination, but when you start to actually drill into the beliefs held by the church, there's a centrist element that drives nearly every belief and value. Most cannot be changed, but they all can learn from the passage of time. This is not a proselyte attempt. Just offering a view that asks that others look into it and see there's less to fear than one thinks.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
When has a tradition in your life felt vital to who you are, and have you ever had to reassess its value?
@9KWSQRD1yr1Y
A tradition has of course held some vital part in my life and I have no had to change my value for I know party what I am worth and can provide.
@9KWT2LK1yr1Y
A tradition that means a lot of probably basic but it would be Christmas because I feel like it's a great event that brings families together.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Can conservative liberalism's emphasis on a free-market economy benefit everyone equally, and why or why not?
@9H9D792Progressive2yrs2Y
No it inherently is designed to create inequity. While free market capitalism can be a force for good, it often develops into monopolistic tendencies which causes the system to devolve. So no I don’t think it impacts everyone equally, because it is designed to favor the wealthy industrialists.
@9H9D6V42yrs2Y
I believe generally it could benefit the majority of the youth.
@9H9DM542yrs2Y
No it can not. It would devalue and take away from other beneficiaries.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How should governments respond to new social movements without disregarding historical values?
@9HFVBSB2yrs2Y
I think it's stupid, why do you need to put such a specific label for yourself in an ideal, just think and stand with it.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
When have you felt that personal responsibility was more important than collective support, and vice versa?
@9HFWR7S2yrs2Y
I think it’s important for the country to be safe and secure, but I don’t think people should have to like earn their country’s support of them.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
What do you feel about the balance between free markets and government regulation promoted by conservative liberalism?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How should community leaders approach the integration of diverse cultures without losing a sense of identity?
@CodyLeighCSSocialist 1yr1Y
They should embrace the diverse opinions of the people in their communities and avoid focusing on forced-integration.
@9KKQ9M51yr1Y
They can allow for their identity to be part of their personality
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Why do you think some feel threatened by cultural changes while others advocate for them?
@9HTMKND2yrs2Y
Some people just fear change and others enjoy it. I don't know why that happens
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Have you ever felt torn between following the law and doing what you believe is morally right?
@9HTW68N 2yrs2Y
I have never felt torn from following the law and doing what I think is right.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How does 'tradition' shape your identity, and which traditions do you feel are worth preserving or changing?
@9LC7FX71yr1Y
I feel that traditions are what you grew up with and lived by. Traditions are very important to lots of people because they are things special to them that create memories and happiness throughout themselves or their family.
@9LC7CSV1yr1Y
I feel like the traditions my grandparents brought over from Mexico should be preserved.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How have your traditions or family values shaped your views on what 'hard work' means?
@9L4R4FS1yr1Y
Hard work is what you do working for what you want in order to make a better life for you or your family. Hard work is not just something everyone does. It isn't just a regular job. It is what you do for true betterment.
@9L4QZY51yr1Y
Hard work is anything that you do that you put a concerted amount of effort into. If you aren’t trying you’re not working
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would you mediate a conflict between environmental preservation and economic development?
To become who you believe in which one to vote for.
@9KKS8SZ1yr1Y
In areas of beautiful nature I would prefer that not to be destroyed, or if privately/public owned by a company/individual.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How can young entrepreneurs honor their cultural heritage while fostering innovation?
@9KKPMGT1yr1Y
They should be a able to tell what thing they can do better on and what makes them a different person
@9KKP38D1yr1Y
Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, right to private property and equality before the law.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How does the access to the internet and global platforms influence your commitment to local traditions?
@9J3QH2S1yr1Y
Free market economics is a scam designed to redistribute wealth from the people who actually do all the work to the people at the very top who do nothing.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Can you give an example of how seeking common ground has helped resolve a conflict in your school or community?
@9LHML2H1yr1Y
the principal. We show her respect because she has authority.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How should society adapt to emerging technologies without compromising human values?
@9KKS5TJ1yr1Y
I believe to adapt to emerging techolohies it takes being open to the idea of trying no ways to help the human population and seeing what ideas work.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Do you believe conservative liberalism's approach to upholding traditional values supports or hinders progress?
@9H57P522yrs2Y
I think it can progress society with moderation as long as we don’t go too traditional or too liberal.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Do you feel that conservative liberalism addresses the needs and rights of the minority as much as the majority?
@9H9FMQV2yrs2Y
It varies depending on how it’s interpreted personally I believe that it focuses more on individual liberties and limited government intervention, which could benefit both the majority and minorities to ensure that the rights and needs of all is considered.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would you utilize the principles of conservative liberalism to resolve an issue in your part-time job or student organization?
@9JFWHQB1yr1Y
Depends on the issue and resources available. Speak to the manager, supervisor, HR, union leader or student leader or school administrator. If coworkers or fellow students have the same concerns, then request a meeting.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
When have you engaged in a community event that struck a balance between progress and preservation of tradition?
@9KWTDJV1yr1Y
I have not engaged in a community event that struck a balance between progress and preservation of tradition.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How has the concept of 'earning your keep' influenced your approach to school or work?
@9KWTRCQRepublican1yr1Y
Would help individuals try harder in their jobs to earn a hard earned living
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do individual freedoms in your life coexist with respecting others' beliefs and customs?
@9JGNS331yr1Y
I live the way I want without disrespecting or hurting another group of people.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do you define freedom in your everyday choices, and where do you draw the line between liberty and responsibility?
@9LC6J2W1yr1Y
I feel like there's a time to have your own beliefs and to have fun, but at the same time there's a time to be a human. Further elaborating on that, there's a time to put your beliefs and feelings aside and do the right thing.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What are the challenges in balancing workplace hierarchy with team collaboration?
In a politically charged environment, team members may hold varying beliefs, ranging from conservative to liberal. These differing perspectives can lead to tension and disagreements. Managers must navigate these differences by fostering open dialogue while ensuring that work remains the central focus.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How can we encourage responsible entrepreneurship in a competitive market?
@9KKPM651yr1Y
Economic liberals tend to oppose government intervention and protectionism in the market economy when it inhibits free trade and competition, but tend to support government intervention where it protects property rights, opens new markets or funds market growth, and resolves market failures.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
When have you faced a choice between financial gain and ethical conduct?
@9KN8VGB1yr1Y
I hurt my ankle a couple weeks ago and we had to make the choice of going to get an x-ray (that would cost quite a bit of money) or just going home and icing it (which costs nothing). We just iced it and my ankle is fine now.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What's your perspective on balancing competitive drives with the need for cooperation in team sports or group projects?
@9KTQYXX1yr1Y
I feel that providing incentives for cooperation along with that of reaching a higher degree of competitive success would balance the drives for each. Several incentives are raised for success over others, but there are none for connecting as human beings.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What's an innovation that you think should be adopted in your community, and how would you convince others of its value?
@9LDSQRD1yr1Y
I am biased but I would urge individuals to see the importance of a creator of the universe, God, an entity to follow. Therefore, people are obligated to do good for themselves and for others, and there are subsequent side effects of all actions. In cases of abortion and how many benefits homeless and criminals should have is already a current issue. If we could agree on the existence of God, then we could agree on the idea of these current issues America faces today.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How does the spirit of entrepreneurship align with your personal goals and community ethics?
@9L67ZYQ1yr1Y
I think entrepreneurship should be a goal of many since it means true freedom and not having to report to a boss or higher up.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Can you share a time when a small, local business made a difference in your community?
@9KSB3KH1yr1Y
A small business in my community gave back to the community and threw a party for people in the community.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How can you apply the balance between freedom and order found in conservative liberalism to school policies or rules?
@9LHBYRM1yr1Y
Give students a space to freely share their opinions while also being respectful of others opinions
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
In what situation did you feel compromise was essential to progress?
@9KKQHNR1yr1Y
I've been in situations where I'd have to just compromise with someone and it makes things a little easier. I'd say do it.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do you prioritize between self-interest and contributing to the common good in team settings or community service?
@9TFSBKX10mos10MO
I think it's in my self-interest to support my community.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What examples from history show the successful integration of innovation with tradition?
@9KPRCQF1yr1Y
I cannot think of any examples, however the idea is a good one I support. I don't think all liberal ideas are bad, or all conservative ideas are good, there is a middle ground mix that should certainly be aimed for. However, I do believe most liberals today are more unreasonable and illogical in hopes of creating new dumb ideas.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How does respect for elders or authority in your family align with your desire for personal independence?
@9JGNMKZ1yr1Y
It is necessary to respect your elders, especially as they grow older, even if that means sacrificing personal independence or personal gain to do so.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do you champion your own path while still honoring the expectations of your family or culture?
@9KZSJCNIndependent1yr1Y
I listen to my family but make my own choices with the information provided.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What's a real-life example where you witnessed a fair balance between authority and individual choice?
@9KZ7DKJ1yr1Y
When people are given the chance to speak out about their feelings.
