    The irony

    This isn’t about a right wing left wing, this is about a misuse of very specific terms. We can argue that liberals are right wing, but we can’t argue that liberals are conservatives

    they may pay lip service to progressives. but in practice? absolutely not.

    Immigration policy is the same as it was in the pro border fencing days? The modern Democratic Party would pass the Clinton crime bill? Marriage is still between a man and a woman for Democrats? The front runner in the Democratic primary is not a democratic socialist? You can’t just say “Democrats are whatever I don’t like” when the party has adopted so much of Bernie’s 2016 platform

    Liberals in regular dialogue refers to people that are like pro gay rights and abortion and gun control.

    Conservatives are for stuff like traditional marriage and gun rights and tough on crime, less inclusive of immigrants.

    Neoliberals refer to people who believe in economic policies that prioritize free trade and less restrictions for business, while still sanctioning government intervention in case of market failure.

    Many conservatives are also neoliberals, many liberals are also neoliberals. Many neoliberals are not conservative. Many neoliberals are not liberal. But NONE of the liberals mentioned in the first definition are conservatives

    Wtf how dare you post something rational itt

    You are conflating “conservative” with “right wing” just because you’re right wing doesn’t make you conservative

    conservatism is just the conspiratorial version of liberalism where the problems of capitalism are blamed on jews and gays and black people; liberalism is the more bold-faced defense of the system where everything is working as intended (not that liberals dont occasionally have their own conspiracies either, see: Russiagate).

    What are you talking about? This wasn’t even directed at you. I don’t care about or support any of the democrats running except Bernie, but that doesn’t make them conservatives
