benevolent authoritarianism

i've been thinking a lot lately about the ideal government and what a utopian society would be lock and the overarching theme in it all comes down to some form of top-down, strictly enforeced parity. Not equality because equality is some bull shit. which makes more sense everyone at a party getting a pizza pie or buying enough pies so that everyone can get the number of slices they want? so there, its parity, biotch.

fuck anarchy. i'm not submitting to human nature.

question:
can a part of conservatism vs liberalism be equated with selfishness vs selflessness. selflessness implies openness to other ideas which is objectivity when performing any sort of analysis. selfishness is exlusive implying closemindedness (though not necessarily). i'd say the selfish would be prone to sciences as it is formulaic and not opinion based. selflessness in comparitive analysis means a removal from any biases or intentions one might have. thus conservatives tend to be the subject of a lot of critique in things like political science but not in economics. Adam Smith was damn capitalist and he's pretty well repected Chris Hitchens crossed to the rightwing camp sorta and he's pretty hated now. And everyone thinks Samuel Huntington is an idiot.
