Welcome to the No true Scotsman party.

Y'all change labels at will and then get upset when people use the "wrong one". Where I'm from liberal means you're not a conservative. Also can we stop with the divisions and no true Scotsman bullshit on the left? This is why the left loses to conservatives so often, cause they love to find divisions and hate among their own side and allies.

You can burn liberals on the same pyre as magats and cops.

Liberalism is left (progressive) absolutely

Liberal Parties are generally not.

Easy way to distinguish them

Liberals - Implement reforms that maintain capitalism. Support oppressed identities/communities so that they can achieve equality.

Leftists - Complete revolution of the economy to destroy economic social classes. All identities/communities are inherently equal except for oppressors.

Examples:

Economic

  • Liberals - Progressive tax code to redistribute wealth from the wealthy to the impoverished. People with disabilities are given enough to survive.

  • Leftists - No one is capable of becoming wealthy. Impoverished people exist only if they truly reject economic support from society. People with disabilities are given even more than the general population to help their quality of life match able-bodied people.

Social

  • Liberals - Same-sex marriage is recognized by the government

  • Leftists - Government? Marriage? lol no one has authority to define your personal relationships. Go live your life. Do whatever as long as you don't hurt others.
