Mind describing to us what you consider a right, but not far right, political stance is? Examples of both economic and social policies would be welcome.

For me I’d say the one-nation part of the conservative party.

Democrats. Sounds funny, but it’s true. Bernie would be “mostly left”.

I’m not American so I’m not all that familiar with that frame of reference

Doesn’t matter, just explain it with actual examples of policies

Sure thing, chief.

Neoliberal economics (low corporate taxes, weak regulations, privatization, weak welfare system, government intervention is used to facilitate further market expansion and prop up big businesses).

Large budgets for the army and the police without much external oversight, while still maintaining some level of restraint on what they can do.

Making it harder to get a visa and even harder to get a citizenship.

Hard-line stance against what are considered vices by the society the conservatives in question inhabit.

A preservation of the monarchy in countries which have them.

Incentives to give birth.

Not a bad lisy actually, although I heavily disagree with the military and police budgets line… Authoritarian left regimes are known for very high police and military budgets even with heavily states controlled economies.

Edit: police and military spending tends to relate more to the libertarian-authoritarian spectrum rather than the socioeconomic left-right spectrum
