Are there good people on the right?

What is your definition of good?

To a true leftist, probably not because the righty would fall under one of these.

1. Abortion is murder, something about controlling women.

B. Homosexuality is a sin.

And finally, capitalism, which is the root of all evil.

You wont typically find a righty who does not hold one of these views or more equally problematic ones to leftist.

I'd get modded if I said the true and correct answer.

What is your definition of good?

Considerate, not selfish, not petty, not hypocritical. I actually had to think about it, even though i admit that was more of my experience with religious people, but they're tend to lean right

Good is an opinion.

Okay. By that definition I would say there are definitely good people on the right.

Doesn't one derive their political alignments from the quality of their character?

Interesting.... Im pretty right leaning but dont think any of those things. Either Ive been lied to most of my life or you have no idea wtf youre talking about. More than likely the latter, as right leaning is more about a small unintrusive government that only exists to carry out basic necessary societal functions than being racist and hating gays, women and unborn children as youve been led to believe.

Prob more good folk on the right than left by that definition lol. Especially the parts about not being petty or hypocritical. Have you seen how some leftists act upon realization that someone makes six or high five figures in comparison to their $20k salary?

That is not what the right is about. You are thinking of libertarians. They are the ones that want smaller government. Libertarianism is neither inherently left or right wing.

What is petty or hypocritical about having a problem with different salaries? Money is an important factor. There is nothing petty about it. As for it being hypocritical, you'll need to address the particular comparison that makes it hypocritical or I am not sure what you are talking about.
