Holy shit… did you seriously just say that liberalism is a right-wing ideology?

I don’t think it’s possible to take you any less seriously from this point on. Thanks for the laugh.

Lol!

There's a saying amongst leftists, liberal... "Scratch a fascist and a liberal bleeds." You wouldn't understand what that means, because you get your politics from a bunch of talking heads on CNN and FOX news.

Tell me, liberal - just who did you think the "foxes" were that Malcolm X was talking about? Who did you think the "Bourgeoisie" is that leftists have been revolting against all this time?

Liberalism is a right-wing ideology - why did you think people who can be called leftist with a straight face wants to dismantle it?

I’ll tell you what, you stop with the “liberal” bullshit, and we can discuss this like adults. We both know you’re using it as an insult to circumvent the civility rule.

Until you stop, I can’t in good faith continue this with you because I don’t entertain discussions with bad faith antagonists.

I can’t in good faith

And what does your "good faith" bring to the table?

You essentially admitted to me that your understanding of the very political ideology you ascribe to is based on nothing but the very propaganda said political ideology has wrapped itself in... are you even capable of having a "good faith" discussion about it?

That's a serious question, btw... no tricks.

So there’s no point in debating this with you. You’re locked into my very political ideology being nothing but propaganda.

This is like trying to argue the existence of god with a Christian. They will stand firm on their lack of evidence to support their argument no matter what you bring to the table.

Liberalism by its nature is NOT a right-wing ideology despite that lunacy involved in making the comparison. This isn’t up for debate. And that’s not just because it’s fundamentally true, it’s also because you have clear shown that you have non intention to see it any other way.
