By the way you may find this useful –

Social conservatism issues are statism. On the other hand you couch your arguments as if they are the opposite. I find that interesting: it’s ironic, and aparently you can’t see this.

Social conservatives have far more in common with the leftists they despise than they would admit to; it’s an argument re who gets to control things rather than the freedom argument it’s usually cast as (by social conservatives, of course!)

What you have been advocating is statism although a different brand than the leftists.
