Liberals believe in the importance of individual rights and freedoms. They believe that all people should be treated equally, regardless of their race, gender, sexual orientation, or religion. Anti-liberals, on the other hand, believe that the individual should be subordinate to the community. They believe that traditional values and social hierarchy are important. Anti-liberals often use religious arguments to support their views.

The moral order of anti-liberal politics in South Africa is rooted in a conservative Christian worldview. This worldview emphasizes traditional values, family structures, and social hierarchy. Anti-liberals believe that the family is the basic unit of society and that the role of women is to be wives and mothers. They also believe that the government should promote traditional values and that homosexuality is a sin.

This moral order has been used to justify policies that discriminate against LGBTQ+ people, women, and other marginalized groups. For example, the South African government has been criticized for its failure to protect LGBTQ+ people from violence and discrimination. The government has also been criticized for its policies that restrict women's access to reproductive health care.

The anti-liberal moral order is a major obstacle to progress in South Africa. It is a moral order that is based on fear and intolerance. It is a moral order that is not inclusive or progressive. It is a moral order that needs to be challenged.

There is a need for a more inclusive and progressive moral order in South Africa. This moral order must be based on the values of equality, justice, and human rights. It must be a moral order that respects the rights and dignity of all South Africans.

The struggle for a more inclusive and progressive moral order in South Africa is a long and difficult one. But it is a struggle that is worth fighting. It is a struggle for the future of South Africa. It is a struggle for a more just and equitable society.
