      But I'd rather keep my liberty & equal opportunity to without the cultural suicide. Hence, I'm a conservative.

      You're a liberal from my perspective. Many conservatives are.

      Even if I denounce liberal ideas like free will, voluntary association and individualism?

      Maybe not. In ways that matter. I don't know if free will exists or a self. I believe in the right to individuality.

      I'm a personalist, I reject there is something called "individual" which you can separate from your family or society.

      All scientific evidence points out that the liberal notion of free will is false. The conservative notion of a taming will is more accurate.

      I don't think it divides that easily. Sam Harris' ideas on lack of free will don't make him any less liberal.

      I think a free will (as in, you can make freely and not-coerced choices) is so fundamental to liberalism, denying that makes you un-liberal.

      OK, well consider me unliberal then. My commitment to ideas of freedom & equal opportunities remain same whatever is true.

      It's strange to think you need to be a liberal to advocate for freedom, it's akin you need to be a socialist to advocate for social policy.

      Because we're using different definitions. I don't seem to be able to get this through to you so I'm going to leave it here

          There's just no point in 'well, I define this word this way so you must actually think what I mean rather that what you do.'
