I protest.
Please don't address marxists/progressives as liberals.
Their agenda goes against all ideals of liberty.
I understand your cultural bias.
I'm just saying, if marxists, communists, progressives, socialists, whatever, are "liberals", then Pepe the Frog is a racist symbol and Milk is a code for white supremacy. Not because of facts, but because someone said so.
Upvote from me.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
They are liberals because they want to liberate themselves from responsibility and morality; edit: you could also argue maybe from biology and nature itself (thus "liberate" from more ancient ways of family structures for example).
I dunno why I took me so long to make this comparison but it's basically not so much different from Satanism. And I'm not a Christian or something.
One more upvote.
They're not liberals, I know, but for some reason they like to call themselves that.
Especially in the central, and eastern Europe, there are laws against public displays of sympathy for authoritarian ideologies, namely Soviet communism, and Nazi fascism.
I think it's just a defense measure, to call yourself something else because your beliefs deemed illegal.
I hold Freedom of Speech as the most important human right, because when you censor Nazi, or Communists, they call themselves something else and you end up voting them in. :D
