It’s a No True Scotsman kind of thing…but I wouldn’t consider anything the christofascists say or do to be aligned with right-wing principles (limited government, personal autonomy, “golden rule” type stuff).
Government banning anything, whether it be books or gay marriage or abortions, would not fly under a true right wing government, because banning anything requires enforcement (which requires a larger government) and a breach of personal autonomy.
That's not what right-wing means. Right-wing is Capitalist, and associated with entrenching and upholding hierarchy.
Limited government cannot exist in a right wing environment, Capitalism requires a state. That's why all Anarchism is leftist.
I see you haven’t heard of ancaps.
I've heard, it's just not Anarchism.
