Well... If the Democrats can't deliver an actual liberal...
Biden is absolutely a liberal.
Then why does he label himself progressive and why is he STILL trying to send billions of dollars to continue the slaughter of Palestine?
I'm a life long liberal Democrat.
I dont know where your copy pasta comes from and I'm not clicking on your link.
Liberals are anti-war. Progressives are pro-status quo, which is pro military industrial complex, which is pro Israel slaughtering innocents with weapons and ammunition made by American military contractors.
Can't learn if you don't click, random stranger. I linked to the wikipedia article on liberalism, what that "copypasta" was cited from.
Clearly it's the definitions that are wrong, lol.
I don’t have anything to add to this conversation but I just want to say you’ve done a great job at reporting news while remaining civil DarkGamer. I’ve never seen you get heated or take an all or nothing stance on an issue and honestly it’s so refreshing to see. You’re proof that people can debate things without resorting to shit slinging and name calling. Keep up the good work 👍
My man, it's Wikipedia. It's where he copied the text from. You could afford to put in a little effort to engage in good faith.
Progressives absolutely support cutting military spending to divert funding to single-payer healthcare.
Cutting military spending is not anti-war.
Cutting military spending is a clever deal to keep the wars going AND fund Healthcare.
Progressives are pro-war, and that isn't liberal.
Liberals traditionally are Democrat and are increasingly disenfranchised.
Jesus, are you 12?
Give me that urban dictionary link that tells me what a liberal Democrat is. Fuck.
americans use “liberal” to only mean socially liberal, however liberal describes both economic and social philosophies
— https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberalism
economic liberals are all about the free market, social liberals are all about human and civil rights (among many other things)
LOL there's a new one.
You’re thinking of conservatives.
Conservatives?
Are anti-war?
The fuck you smoking?
Pretty sure they meant the other description you gave.
Lol he hates half of that
biden is probably one of the most liberal presidents in recent history.....
