You have such diverse vocabulary and incredibly witty responses! How do you do it?

So basically fuck the US, I guess? I’m not from there, so I have no dog in that race, but for me it sounds like AOC/Sanders/etc would be very good for at least US citizens.

I have not heard of any true “leftist” politicians in the US.

Compassion is not a word I would use for most interactions here. :D People are very stuck in their own interpretations of certain words, and not a single person has been able to point out what they think is good or accurate about the article. “Lol you cannot read retard” is the most common answer.

I got that many people have a different understand of the word “liberal”. The article also seems to group a bunch of people under that umbrella and that makes little sense to me.

It’s not really that I don’t understand, I just disagree with the generalization that “all liberals bad”. I do get that that does not fit thr general narrative in this social circle. But I tend to think that this kind of bashing articles are not really useful, and discussing with people who have different opinions is good to broaden one’s understanding of the world.

Thanks, you too

Thanks

I agree with workers controlling the economy. I disagree that liberalism’s goal is to enslave the world or to blindly defend capitalism. The world is complex. No financial system is perfect. We have definitely found out the hard way how capitalism ruins everything. Things have to change. They will eventually. And that change definitely won’t happen by people voting for “status quo” politicians.

Thanks, you too

They may be better represented by marxis-leninism, but that does not mean they cannot be represented by liberalism. It’s not so black and white.

Care to explain why liberalism is so tightly nit with capitalism in your opinion? I cannot see a good reason.

I hate late-stage capitalism as much as the next guy, obviously.

That’s your definition. I understand it’s a common definition here. But even the first chapter of wikipedia has a much wider definition of liberalism. If you are hating on capitalism or moderates, why not say so?

Literally from wikipedia: Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, the right to private property, and equality before the law.

I support socialism and hate capitalism, but I still don’t consider liberalism to be "all bad.

You sure are fun to talk with. Somehow you think I’m crying :D

My point was that all you can do is throw insults at me. And you keep doing it, proving my point.

No u :D

You just keep proving my point lol

What insight? All you do is insult me and claim I have not read the article. Only thing I’ve gathered from the conversations here is that people have very different meanings for the word “liberal”.

I truly think it’s you who is playing dumb and has no arguments to make. That’s why you resort to insulting me.
