    Socially conservative fucking liberal, “classical” liberal, emperialstic liberal, yee olde British liberal, Yee olde aristocrats wanting to go solo and cut out the monarchy and clergy liberal, privatise everything to a set of monopolies, duopolies, triopolies liberal, fostering markets that exploit slavery liberals, push war on drugs and McCarthyism liberals.

    FUCKING LIBERALS

    Right wing. Not left wing. Liberalism was always, always right wing. Social democrats too. Same shit. Different branches. UK liberals, Nordic liberals, German liberals, Spain liberals, EU liberals, democrats and republican liberals.

    FUCKING LIBERALS

    The predominant feature of liberal democracies? Fucking liberals. Nice word, isn’t it? Shame if it would be misleading packaging and be about as liberating as a gimp cage.

    Signed, an ex-social democrat.

      McCarthyism

      Oh, American. Not surprised.

      Is everyone a liberal to you? Right wing, left wing, neither?

          I’m not even going to bother engaging. You put so many words in my mouth it’s ridiculous.

            Well I am.

            You had no argument whatsoever, went into name calling me as a yankie to justify some non existent point and you’re probably just smirking and chuckling under your voice now, probably because you’re a pretentious, elitist, institutionalist, braindead liberal - so it’s the other way around.

            Engaging with you is a waste of time.

            I just want people to read it for future reference, you know?

              Didn’t call you a “yankie” (McCarthyism is an American concept who like to have their own words for things which is why I mentioned, well, America).

              Not smirking, you’re actually quite frustrating.

              Pretentious, elitist, institutionalist, braindead liberal. Thanks for that. (I am absolutely left-wing).

              See what I mean by putting words in my mouth? You managed it 3 times in a few sentences just there.

                  Pal, I just addressed what you said to me. That’s not putting words in your mouth.

                    You called me an American…

                    Last attempt.

                    Ronald Reagen and Margaret Thatcher were liberals.

                    True or false.

                    EDIT: screw you and your alt, you brainwashed dimwit.
