It's just a giveaway that someone is conservative but doesn't want to associate openly with fascists.

In the minds of people like that, and I'm speaking from experience now, it's much more logical to be fiscally classical liberal (not sure if Republicans are that, but perhaps that's kind of what they claim to be in some other wording) and also socially liberal. They are both sides of the same coin: freedom in how you behave, who you are; but also who you do business with and how. And don't take the freedoms of others either.

I don't feel any kind of draw to associating with fascists, they are the worst.
