Because those people have no poltical education whatsoever

They can't define words like liberalism, capitalism, socialism, communism, shit they can't even define simple concepts like "the state"

All they have is just vague vibes shaped by whatever bullshit the electoral parties of their home country happen to be spitting out at the moment

Liberals don't really have beliefs, they don't believe in history, they don't believe in knowledge, they don't believe in education and it's power of liberation

What they believe in is comfort signaling from state institutions that subscribe to a religious conception of civil governance

It’s the shared understanding of them that makes them into a language and bring them usefulness

Someone should tell america they are not sharing the understanding

You're so right

  • American don't-tread-on-me capitalists call themselves libs
  • American trump republican nazi capitalists call antifascism, right-winger Dems, leftists and communists libs

Who the fuck knows what anyone there means

We don’t share the understanding with each other. You think we’re going international?

Because America is the only country and the rest of you non Americans have to deal with it. Everything is from our perspective because we export all of the entertainment.

maybe-later-kiddo there might be a dang CHEETO in the white house again and we cant be thinking about other places and their backwards definitions of things that more people agree with

Current Overton Window in the US has everyone confused
