      that’s what we’re doing when we make fun of liberals. in every other country on earth, you would be appropriately called conservatives and labeled a right-wing party. you were never leftists.

      How strange indeed that lefties who have been demonized and attacked by a group of people who demand loyalty without an ounce of reciprocation might want a space to vent about that bullying group.

      Not really a need to denigrate the right here, we can and do that alongside centrists.

        Liberalism has never been “centrist” - it’s about as right-wing as it gets. The only real difference between liberals and fascists is that fascists don’t lie to themselves and everybody alse about it.

          I agree. I’m just living what I’m preaching, they can call themselves the Enlightened for all I care, I’ll use their terms and lobby criticism at them regardless.
