And you got leftist piling on liberals for some reason
Edit: oh shit I'm in .ml my bad(not really) lol hey at least you don't ban dissent I guess
Edit 2: Leftists once again can't see the forest for the trees with your ideological purity test pitted against defeating a common enemy. For people so smart you really need to understand that your power lies with NUMBERS
For some reason?
how much time you got
“For some reason”
Liberals in the US are MAGA enablers. To the last individual.
Yeah what and you're going to resist the us gov with what percent of the population?
We can leave USA & support countries where leftists have a stronger presence. Let US implode under right-wing fascism
Coward
~90% of the world's population?
Coward
Coward? I'm saying you need friends not enemies
Fascists and their enablers are not our friends.
I'm not a fascist enabler. I believe in personal liberty above all
"Personal liberty" is what allows capitalists to exploit us. They have all the "liberty" you think you have. The "liberty" to put lies in the media, to pay you less than the value of your labor in order to extract a profit, to charge extortionist prices for healthcare and other basic needs, to influence politics and to crush competing public industries. These are all the things that "liberty" gets you under capitalism. "Personal liberty above all" != working class liberation.
Wym some reason? Y'all get off too easy imo.
Stop with the woe is me shit, you know perfectly well how complicit y'all are.
Wait so Greta is a liberal and doing right but other liberals are enables but leftists are ... checks notes... circle jerking themselves to completion over a captured "ally"? Make it make sense
Greta is very clearly not a liberal. She's been very vocally anticapitalist these past few years.
You can be liberal and anticapitalist
You quite literally cannot. Liberalism is the ideology of capitalism.
No, it's not. It means I believe in personal liberty over economic system
Shitlibs even too lazy for wikipedia
People who call themselves liberal are not economic liberal you completely dense morons. In the sense that the government can't seize your shit for no reason well ddduuuuhhhhh MOST people are going to feel that way that doesn't mean we can't tax the shit out of billionaires or drag them out into the street
You not wanting to understand what we're telling you does not make us the morons.
edit:
Doesn't it? Where do you draw the line between taxes and government seizure, especially in the context of capital owners? Also, wouldn't it be far more effective for the government to simply own the means of production and operate at the behest of the people? Does taxing capitalists more while still allowing them to have full control over the means of production - which they'll use to influence the people and government in their favor - not simply set up the same situation we find ourselves in now, just some amount of time down the road?
I would say it does set that up (in fact it has in the past, just look at what was in the new deal and how it's been eroded since it was signed. Assuming you're familiar with US history...), and that is why liberalism is incompatible with anti-capitalism.
"I believe in personal liberty over economic system"
Sure, if you ignore the meaning of both of those words.
Go on I'll wait
