Is this true? I find conflicting answers to this question and I genuinely don’t have a fuckin clue. I see republicans talking about liberals like they are left, but then I see this repeated statement and I always look it up but never seem to get anywhere.
To a fascist, everything left of fascism is “radical left.” It’s mostly ignorance. You don’t become a rightist by being smart or nuanced.
Liberalism sounds leftist at first because the word suggests permissiveness. In reality, liberalism allows for the consolidation of wealth and power in ways that naturally result in society moving rightward. Neoliberals take it a step further by being more active in their theft of wealth and power rather than passive. Liberals are often described as “center-left” but they are essentially a kind of right-leaning centrist. You might also hear the term “enlightened centrist” used pejoratively for liberals who haughtily want to pretend to be “above” the left-right spectrum.
Leftism is ultimately about egalitarianism, particularly of wealth and power. This requires certain controls to prevent consolidation which results in rightist structures like feudalism, dictatorships, oligarchies, and the like. Liberals are against such controls, and so are enablers of rightism.
The GOP and DNC are both liberal parties, but the GOP is more right-wing, thus they call the DNC "liberals" in a negative manner while upholding themselves as "conservatives." Liberalism is pro-capitalism, though, and cannot be seen as left.
Considering how many libs have been constantly going on about how awful this was and that we shouldn't partake in political violence while doing nothing to denounce Israel's MANY crimes against humanity, I'm inclined to disagree.
The only people I've seen calling for less political violence have also denounced the violence in Palestine. Some people are just anti-violence, there's no hypocrisy in that.
They do say Political violence has no place in America. They don't give a shit outside.
Tho, the kind of spewed hatred Kirk got shot for basically counts as verbal violence. So I guess that's why he got no place in America.
When Pelosi's husband was attacked, not that many condemned it.
Thank you for reminding me of the literal Nazi tier DNC congress on top.
Und warum hast du ne Maske auf 😳
Das verstehe ich nicht.

Cool, now do one for conservatives
Liberalism is pro-capitalism, so "liberals" and "conservatives" are both just different flavors of the same liberalism in the US.
You are in the meme.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Look at all the beautiful, selective moderation happening in real-time in this thread.
Nature is so fascinating!
there must be a picture out there of you doing the same thing that the people in op's pic are doing.
Or go and complain about ml moderation
😂😂😂😂😂
That's... literally the opposite of reality.
*Edit: peoples' definitions of what a liberal is are not all the same. To me, the DNC are not liberal, they are capitalist centrists.
Notice which instance you are on and then remember that liberals are not leftists.

This is the leftist viewpoint, at least.
Very interesting and seemingly educated take. Thank you for the response.

So those people holding their ears or mocking the protesters in OP's image? The video is from protesters reading off the names of children killed by Israel, outside the DNC.
It is literal reality.
You just linked to an account, and their most recent video is from January.
Good catch. Fixed.

Literally mods of toiletpaperusa on reddit bans anyone who makes fun of him.
opposite of hasbara reality
Liberals are pro-capitalism. The DNC are liberals.
Are these evil liberals in the room with us right now?
It looks like the answer is yes
Look out, I think there's a scary librul right behind you!
It seems rather there is one right in front of me
Rule 2 😡
At least you know that been a liberal is so bad that can be interpreted as disrespectful
Yeah, they're almost as bad as tankies
Bad by what measure?
Is this an insult attempt? It feels like one but idk if rule 1 applies.
so funny now do me
