So if you are going to change the definitions I've put on the "leftist" page and the "rightist" page, please take into consideration the points I just made. If you disagree with my definition of what's the defining characteristic of the political spectrum, please provide a better definition and explain why. And in particular, if you think "freedom" lies on one side of the political spectrum, try to explain what you think the political spectrum is, and why this implies that "freedom" is on one side of that spectrum. --[[User:Redblue|Redblue]] 05:27, 9 April 2007 (EDT)

::This comment is better than the explanation that was in the [[Political spectrum]] article. I appreciate Redblue's efforts to educate the reader; he doesn't appear to be trying to score any partisan points. We should listen to him.
::My only 'quibble' is that terms like [[rightist]] and [[leftist]] might better be understood in the context of a single article like [[Political spectrum]], so I propose we merge and redirect there. (But bring this discussion thread along!) --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] 06:51, 9 April 2007 (EDT)
