It’s patriarchal system.
Whoa, this comment section is an absolute shithole dumpsterfire of ignorance, hate, and stupidity.
Elaborate please
What’s the origin of this?
(top) Florida rep Angie Nixon asked how many Palestinians needed to die for people to want to stop the genocide.
(bottom) Florida rep Michelle Salzman shouted “All of them”
😨
Oh my fucking god, ew.
More like the limit does not exist!
As long as there’s a new episode of Ted Lasso next week!
WTF? Blaming liberals for this conservative bullshit?
Liberals staunchly support unlimited freedom for the capitalist class, including their rule over everything. Its liberalism’s defining feature.
If liberals actually opposed capitalism, they would definitionally not be liberals.
Conservative’s in the US are also economic liberals: pro-capitalism, anti-regulation
We have to come up with new labeling, it’s clear the media has made an active effort to erode and confuse the meanings of most political words. I’m so tired of explaining this sort of thing to people who should know better
Capitalism is the problem, not conservatives alone. Liberals support capitalism and thus the problem.
Right? It’s a choice of being stabbed in the front or in the back.
Then stick to the problem, maybe? Where it says Liberals it should say Capitalists.
Where it says Liberals it should say Capitalists.
Nah, liberals are awful in many different ways. Fractally, even. For example, liberals regularly side with fascists against anti-fascists. Liberals diffuse righteous proletarian anger into milquetoast electoral politics. Liberals clutch their pearls at the slightest whiff of change. Liberals don’t fucking listen, and are smug to everyone else about their ignorance. Liberals are just as bigoted as conservatives but are too cowardly to be open about it (do not take this as a defense of open bigots like conservatives; it simply makes them easier to identify). Liberals are just as openly imperialist and settler-colonial as their conservative counterparts. Liberals are capitalist, and any deviations from laissez faire are attempts to save an inherently unstable capitalist system. Both times Trump won, it was because the liberals ran the most rank neoliberal shitheel they could possibly cram down the electorate’s throats, i.e. we are in Trump 2.0 because of the Democrats. And that almost fucking happened again with Biden, like Biden barely won relative to the monumental daily public fuckups by the Trump admin, including his ass-backwards response to COVID-19 (from which Biden did not materially depart!) (Not that Biden or Obama were any better on 99.9% of issues; e.g., the Gaza genocide started under Genocide Joe, and Obama is responsible for the deaths of at least hundreds of thousands of civilians during the War On Terror.) I could go on and on and on.
Frankly,
liberals are fucking monsters from my anarchist eyes. So are conservatives, I know I have to keep saying that because apparently the evilness of
was always invented just now in the minds of liberals, but oh my God, liberals truly are a monstrous breed too.And I know we were all liberals at one point, it’s the monoculture in
and other Western countries…all the more reason why socialists of all stripes need to be empathetic to liberals looking for change, but firm in opposition to liberalism.Liberals are capitalists, and have joined forces with fascists many times to violently protect capitalism from communists. The fact is, fascism would pose very little danger without liberal enablers. The way root-dwelling cyanobacteria allow plants to grow bigger.
Liberals are capitalists
Some are, some are not.
There are anticapitalist liberals…?
No, but there are confused Westerners who only understand “Liberal” to mean “the more progressive half of my country’s Liberal parties”.
Liberal in modern western political discourse has little to do with capitalism anymore and more about your stance on social issues like LGBT rights, racial equality or healthcare. Half of lemmy pretends not to understand it for some reason but it’s been like that for a few decades.
It’s the result of conservatives using “libtard” and “communist” interchangeably for everyone to the left of Reagan while by the old definition they’re actually liberals.
Languages evolve. Prescriptivism is useless.
American centric much.
So, not anti capitalist.
The word understander has logged on
I think that as more people lose faith in capitalist reform and are pushed left, there’s potential for semantic drift, which is important to address. So just to clear up any miscommunication, liberalism is everything short of “we gotta get rid of capitalism”. Once you go over that line, you’re not a liberal anymore
true, some are bonapartists
Liberals are supporters of capitalism. Capitalists are owners of capital.
Liberals are pro capitalism (sometimes with minor treats or reforms for their ingroup). Democrats, Republicans, Social Democrats, Greens etc. all liberals.
First of all, Joe Biden was just as, if not more supportive of the Israeli genocide. Idk that I should really have to go any further than that 🤣🤣🤣
I believe the problem is the ‘liberals’ label, while the whole billionaire child pedo class shares the same opinion.
Both sides are on the war & capitalism wagon. Not just liberals.
Both sides of the billionaire child pedo class are liberals.
Some are fascists too.
They both put profit over people.
Most liberals think the label means “I’m a good person” but the policies they support say otherwise.
Also, I don’t really consider conservatives to be salvageable.
I’d bet it’d be easier to convince your average conservatives into socialism than the “educated and so smart” “woke liberals”
Might be harder to convince them that socialism means it’s for everyone, though
Growing up a liberal means being immersed in 50 kinds of false consciousness, while conservatives have like 3 or 4 kinds
I gotta steal that lmao
What the fuck does that have to do with the meme?
What do any of the Drake memes have to do with Drake? It’s a meme, not a chronicle of what actually happened.
That has to be stupidest fucking take I’ve ever heard… pure shitposting.
Lol, it’s a meme. Get over it.
It’s pretty clear they can’t and can’t comprehend how liberal can be the same as a conservative
Did their comment get removed?
Carry on glamorizing stupidity. Lol.
Thank you for your input.
