A descriptor of a socioeconomic standpoint in politics.
A common misconception is to assume being "Right Wing" as being a completely defined political standpoint, when really you can be Right Wing on one of two scales; Social and Economic.
Social Scale: To be Right Wing on a social scale is to endorse primarily Authoritarian form of government, i.e placing importance in Discipline, the Armed Forces and Sovereignty. See British parties such as the BNP and to more extreme extent the National Front (NF) and Column 88/Combat 18.
Economic Scale: To be Right Wing from an economic standpoint is to be supportive of what is a traditionally Conservative position; that is support of small central government with more devolved power to individual states (in the USA) and more economic freedoms. It follows that while the economically right wing party supports a more lucrative trade system in which the market is largely competition-based rather than controlled by the government (meaning that Conservatives generally prefer to let competing corporations "battle it out" rather than tax or legislate them), this generally leads to less social values in terms of public services and equality between the social classes. One such party that endorses this view in the UK are the aforementioned Conservatives.
It is possible to be Right Wing in both a social and economic way, or only on one scale, which is why being "Right Wing" should not be synonymous with racism, fascism or simply Adolf Hitler.
"As a Conservative, I believe that public services should be privatised to allow more economic freedom. Therefore I am Economically Right Wing."
"I believe that National Service should be compulsory in the UK. I am also Anti-EU. Therefore I am Socially Right Wing."

The first 10 amendments to the Constitution of the United States of America. Tells the government what kinds of laws they can and can't pass. Includes freedom of speech and freedom of religion, which it specifically says Congress can not deny any American citizen.
President George W. Bush's worst nightmare.
Congress shall pass no law limiting the freedom of speech.

An expression of positive agreement, endorsement, or enthusiasm. Comes from the expression right on.

A movement that focuses on men's issues. For example; bias in family court, male abuse victims not getting talked about enough, male mental health, and much more. Although these issues are serious and a lot of them are set aside so the media can talk about feminism and man-spreading.
John: I'm feeling sad.
Everyone else: man up.
John: why won't you listen to me
Everyone else: because your a man and men shouldn't have the same emotional support as women.
John: this is why we need Men's Rights
