This is addressed to "normal" folks of course.
Call your buddy a Liberal these days and you may get punched in the face. It's as if you called him / her an asshole or a bit@h.
Why do you think that is?

You have stoopid buddies? That's my guess.
 
The word "liberal" is becoming passé. I usually refer to them a "leftists" or "statists". That's a much more accurate descriptor.

Because in modern parlance, a "Liberal" is a Socialist authoritarian who uses emotions instead of logic. This is a total anathema to Americans who support and defend the Constitution of the United States.
 
Have you noticed nobody likes liberals? They are always angry and foaming at the mouth about something, like having to work for a living or not getting their fair share of free shit.

I'm a Liberal. No problem with you calling me one.
 
It's just another term "conservatives" have twisted until it is practically meaningless. We are nearly all liberals in the classical sense but now it means things it never did because the right was coming out on the wrong side of most of the long-accepted definitions for various political terms.

Nothing deplorable in that post.

No, not in modern parlance. Perhaps it is in RWNJ parlance. I've seen right wingers call people liberal because a burger joint forgot to put fries in their bag, It's used as a general insult by people who believe Alex Jones or Hannity crap.
 
The hate talk and demonization has ramped up so much over the past few decades it has really turned the conversation into focused attacks on groups of people rather than specific people, specific policies and specific arguments. It is one of the major problems in our political discourse and it is extremely dishonest and counter productive.

"Liberal" and "conservative" are both. As words depending on the group you are speaking to. What happened to the days when liberals could respect and even appreciate the restraint that conservatives bring to our democracy. And when conservatives could appreciate the progression of civil liberties and outreach to the oppressed and poor that liberals bring?

It's a shame that those things are getting filtered out.

Thanks for proving my point, BD. I knew someone like you would do so. :)

Alex Jones is a libertarian. As for Hannity, I can say with almost 100% certainty that's you've never actually watch a full hour of his show. Most likely a minute or two of a clip they ran on CNN or MSNBC.

And please don't come back as say that you have, because I've heard that story too many times already, ya liberal. :biggrin:

So you think most people believe Alex Jones and Hannity? That's funny.
