You believe in striking a balance between individual freedom and social stability, aiming to create a society that fosters both personal liberties and traditional values.
Liberal conservatism is a political ideology that combines conservative policies with liberal stances, particularly on ethical and social issues. It is a more moderate form of conservatism that incorporates some liberal viewpoints. This ideology emphasizes a balance between individual liberty, limited government, free markets, and a robust civil society. It also supports tradition, human imperfection, practicality, restraint, and continuity.
The roots of liberal conservatism can be traced back to the 19th century, during the age of enlightenment. It emerged as a response to the indust…

How do you feel about striking a balance between innovation in technology and privacy concerns?
I think there needs to be high privacy regulations to protect consumers and the general public from big corporations profiting from peoples information.
@9LK3SKR 1yr1Y
theres more to life than profiting off of everything, and once something is on the internet, it's hard for it to go away, so keep my data safe.
@9LJ3GQG1yr1Y
Privacy needs to keep a firm housing withing every social media and tech company
@9LJ3ZZ71yr1Y
I agree to my limited understanding of the topic, every citizen should have a say in who can intervene in their private affairs. if someone wants a limited life, away from technology then they have the freedom to do so. its not hurting me or my chances of getting at new technologies.
@9LJ3S4P1yr1Y
protecting personal information is very important.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How should a society cope with the tension between encouraging innovation and preserving cultural heritage?
@9J26LL21yr1Y
I think we should listen to each others opinions and have thorough discussions, I think that preserving cultural heritage is of the utmost importance as long as it is not influencing oppression and or deprevation of rights. I also believe that innovation should be one of our forefront but with obligation to respect heritage and morality.
@9J24TQT1yr1Y
society should accept innovation, however shouldn't take that as a reason to forget heritage.
@9HTKJ9T2yrs2Y
Cultural heritage is creaed by mankind in history and passeed down to this day.It has historical and artistic value
@9J26DW51yr1Y
You should make sure that it is safe and that nothing can get to it.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Is it possible to have too much freedom, and if so, who gets to decide what the limits should be?
@9H4JFJ82yrs2Y
It is possible to have too much freedom, yes. The government should decide what the limits are when it comes to issues that could lead to the physical harm of its people (otherwise you could just have murder in the streets without regulation). The people vote for the government so the government should be expected to hold the perspective of the majority. As for the rest of the moral decisions, there may be such a thing as 'too much freedom' (also known as 'chaos') but it should be solved by respective social and religious groups rather than the government. The dividing line between which issue belongs with whom is tricky.
@9H4JHTW2yrs2Y
I think that liberal conservatism should be placed and have limited govt. interference with ecomony policies and govt. intervention. Especially when we have seen several agencies in the govt lie to the people of America.
@9H478LPRepublican2yrs2Y
Not in regards to our God given rights as defined in Constitution
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Can you recall a time when respecting others' traditions led to a deeper understanding or connection?
I have always respected others' traditions. I do not care what religion, beliefs, or traditions somebody has; as long as they are a respectable person.
@9J267Y41yr1Y
traditions and culture is there to share with other cultures to show how you live and share it with others
@9J26B541yr1Y
when it comes down to the topics of liberal conservation
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
When have you felt the impact of government regulations on your personal life, for better or worse?
@9HHBSMT2yrs2Y
When the topic of banning abortion came into play I personally feel like women rights are slowly being taken away. And I believe nobody but women should decide this, Men can't produce, Men have no say in this topic.
@9HHBRRV2yrs2Y
Literally every single day. We have laws- and I don't like them.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Can you share an experience where a balance between personal freedom and societal norms was crucial?
@9J273WG1yr1Y
responsible social behavior ensures that these freedoms do not infringe upon the rights and well-being of others.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What changes in society or technology have prompted you to reconsider the value of either freedom or regulation?
AI technology definitely needs to be regulated, because now it's like, there's more AI freedoms than human freedoms, and more regulation on how a human can live their life that what an AI can do. AI takes jobs, it tricks people, it's not trustworthy unregulated, and yes, there are ways we can work with it efficiently, but when it is not regulated and watched, it can be harmful to humankind.
@9KVGX4B1yr1Y
Changes in society and technology make liberal conservatives talk about how to find the best mix between freedom and rules. Changes in society, such as globalization and social movements, along with advances in technology, such as AI and worries about digital privacy, throw off established balances. These events may make liberal Republicans rethink their views on how much control is needed and how to protect individual rights.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do you think society should balance individual success with collective needs?
@9KDXL6XIndependent1yr1Y
It should be leaning towards the collective needs.
@9KDXJXKRepublican1yr1Y
I think we need our core values and constitution but should be willing to change if it helps the majority of everyone.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
When do you think it's important to stand up for your individual rights against popular opinion?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
In what way has a teacher or mentor’s guidance impacted your view on leadership and social structure?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
In your opinion, what does a balanced society look like during times of rapid technological change?
@9JLSPR7Republican1yr1Y
A society that adapts to change but also doesn´t change everything to adapt to the changes that have been made.
@9JLS5J61yr1Y
a place that is flexible in changing law. like changing the constitution every 20 year.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How has social media influenced your perception of the right balance between public interest and individual expression?
@9J25NFB1yr1Y
People are divided on what they want and still caring for others. As long as what people are doing is not overall morally questionable or illegal then freedom to express should remain.
@9J253V21yr1Y
I don't get on social media so I do not know what the platforms are saying about interests
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Should traditional values always be preserved, or is there a point when they must evolve for the sake of modern society?
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How do you reconcile your personal beliefs with the laws and norms of your community?
@9HG7LH92yrs2Y
I think that as society evolves, I’m pretty good at staying true to myself and my original beliefs. While I do think it’s important to take modern takes into account, staying true to yourself and your personal beliefs is important as well.
@9HG7L6C2yrs2Y
I think everything is fine, in my opinion. Nothing that I disagree with
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Can you think of a time when embracing diversity has strengthened your community?
@9KC3PB21yr1Y
During tbe BLM movement in summer 2020, our town had a parade/event for George Floyd, and it really brought our community together and helped relieve tension between the minorities in my town and the police. It also helped relieve the tension between the teen/young adult community in my town and the police.
@9KC3G7N1yr1Y
during the blm movement my town came together and paraded together
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do the communities you're part of help you balance being true to yourself while fitting into the group?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How have your personal aspirations been influenced by societal standards and expectations?
@9JLRNYZ1yr1Y
I don't think I have been greatly impacted because of my unique look and beliefs.
@9JLR9791yr1Y
As a brown woman, I have always been undermined. As if I am not as capable as everyone else. However, because of this and because of all the injustices, it has heavily influenced my career choices.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What are your thoughts on preserving your cultural background in an increasingly diverse society?
@9JS5PJ91yr1Y
preserving culture is a necessity in the increasingly oppressive society we subside in-- I believe the government wants to erase minority communities altogether, and embracing heritage is the best way to combet this.
@9JS5GN3Republican1yr1Y
yes, people should have the right to enforce there cultural backgrounds.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do you choose when to follow tradition versus when to embrace progress?
@9JLS25ZLibertarian1yr1Y
I agree with this ideology. I feel like it aligns most with my beliefs which includes little to no government intervention. I agree with some of the liberal social issues, overall they don't really affect me, but economically I align more conservative.
@9JLRTYB1yr1Y
When you personally feel it is in the right direction vs. wrong.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What's a time when you've observed older and newer generations finding common ground?
@9LFBVBP 1yr1Y
When it came to COVID-19 year a lot of us had to work together to provide ourselves a better stance in fighting this pandemic when it faced our health and work ethics.
@9LFBSN4 1yr1Y
During times of war when we must join together in unity to protect our country. Also during Covid-19 when everyone was under the same conditions of staying home, losing money, and fearing the worst outcomes.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Which historical events or movements do you believe best represent the successful integration of progress with tradition?
@9JLSHLS1yr1Y
the ban of slavery and equal rights with African Americans
@9JLSH6WRepublican1yr1Y
THEY NEED TO JOIN THE OTHER PARTY AND BE A DEMOCRAT AT THIS POINT.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Can you recall a time when you or someone you know had to adapt a tradition to better fit modern society?
@9KT2RJMRepublican1yr1Y
I had a friend from Vietnam, and he became "white washed"
@9KS6JL41yr1Y
a girl i knew started to not wear her hajab so people could find her normal and start talking to her
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How does the concept of a 'fair chance' manifest itself in your school life, work, or society?
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How do you approach decisions that affect both your personal interests and the wellbeing of your community?
@9HHC2KDRepublican2yrs2Y
Government should not make decisions for the entire populations, we are different and have different values and goals. People should take inaiitves to control their own lives as long as they are not breaking laws or hurting other people.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Can you think of a historical figure who embodies both liberal and conservative values, and what can we learn from them?
@9HKSVCN2yrs2Y
I cannot think of a figure who embodies both liberal and conservative values.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How has your upbringing shaped your view on the balance between social order and personal freedoms?
@9HMN5WF2yrs2Y
I believe as a Gen Z that the GOP should stray away from its baseless arguments against the modernizing of culture and how society is moving towards progressive values. For example how Gen X voters lean right. As oppose to Gen Z voters whom lean significantly lean left, I would love to see a more open-minded GOP. Maybe a "new wave of conservatism." within the younger conservative voters. :D
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
When have you witnessed a tradition evolving, and what impact did that have on you or your community?
@9HHBC7XWomen’s Equality2yrs2Y
I witnessed a traditional evolving when people were walking to to show we need peace.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Do you feel there are universal values that must be maintained in society, or should values be adaptable to change over time?
@9H6YJ9W2yrs2Y
No , the values we have could withstand the hands of time .
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Can one be truly conservative while upholding liberal values like freedom of speech and equality?
@9H744Y32yrs2Y
Yes! I think freedom of speech and equality should be a value on both parties!
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What could your generation do differently to improve society while respecting past traditions?
@9K9X7C71yr1Y
I would like to see major changes to the electoral and supreme court systems.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Where do you think the balance should lie between national security and individual privacy rights?
@9H3ST3D2yrs2Y
Individual rights should not be violated, unless in a extreme cases.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
What role does individual responsibility play in your vision of an ideal society?
@9H9BWPK2yrs2Y
I think people should take responsibility for their faults, and work to fix them instead of blaming on the government or something else.
