You don't think?

2018-11-21 01:19:55 UTC  

About following a strict ideology and maintaining the status quo unless you're ousted and destroyed.

2018-11-21 01:19:57 UTC  

pretty sure slut walks arent pure

pu·ri·tan·i·cal

adjectiveDEROGATORY
practicing or affecting strict religious or moral behavior.

2018-11-21 01:20:31 UTC  

Depends on what one thinks is moral.

2018-11-21 01:20:43 UTC  

They think dressing up 6 years old in drag is moral.

2018-11-21 01:20:57 UTC  

yea you got me there

2018-11-21 01:21:20 UTC  

it's hard to square left-wing redistributive economics with libertarianism.

2018-11-21 01:21:25 UTC  

And if you say something about it, you get owen benjamin'd

2018-11-21 01:21:53 UTC  

>extremeism is never good
I find this phrase misused everyday. How do you even define "extremism"?

2018-11-21 01:22:05 UTC  

considering left-wing economics requires the government to have complete control of your fiscal life

2018-11-21 01:22:20 UTC  

I understand it this way because I used to be a lefty when it was the devil's advocate. When it was against the status quo. But I was also young and incredibly stupid.

2018-11-21 01:22:29 UTC  

I'm not left economically, I'm left because they historically have defended the rights to individual liberty to live and love as we wish

2018-11-21 01:22:44 UTC  

oh yea i was a democrat back in senior year of high school

2018-11-21 01:22:45 UTC  

@DrYuriMom I disagree

2018-11-21 01:23:08 UTC  

then my folks actually talked to me about politics and i had no explanation for why i was a democrat

2018-11-21 01:23:20 UTC  

Historically yes, @DrYuriMom which is why people like Dave Rubin classify it at classical liberalism.

2018-11-21 01:23:24 UTC  

I believe in economic liberty

2018-11-21 01:23:26 UTC  

the Conservatives are the ones with the motto, live and let live. Whatever you choose to do in your private life, it's for you to decide

2018-11-21 01:23:28 UTC  

Modern liberalism is anti liberty.

2018-11-21 01:23:34 UTC  

^

2018-11-21 01:23:42 UTC  

I also believe in personal liberty

2018-11-21 01:23:45 UTC  

It's about freedom for some but not for all

2018-11-21 01:24:08 UTC  

if you are rich you are punished for being successful

2018-11-21 01:24:11 UTC  

you can't really believe in economic and personal liberty and be on the left 🤔
can you?

2018-11-21 01:24:33 UTC  

if you are poor you are rewarded for just being poor

2018-11-21 01:24:44 UTC  

Because I'm a woman married to a woman, those in power on the right hate me and those in power on the left fought for my right to marry.

2018-11-21 01:24:44 UTC  

Now I don't dilute myself into thinking the conservatives really believe in freedom for all. They're shutting down a lot of things for trans people simply because they don't hold a greater share of the population. But I also just don't care. I do think the majority wins out.

2018-11-21 01:25:09 UTC  

@DrYuriMom why is the right to marry important to you?

2018-11-21 01:25:18 UTC  

those in power on the right don't care about your relationships.

2018-11-21 01:25:18 UTC  

Fortunately there are men like Ted Olson who believe in personal liberty even if it's not popular on the right

2018-11-21 01:25:42 UTC  

Well, until a few years ago they fought very hard to keep me from being married

2018-11-21 01:25:51 UTC  

I think the state should be removed from "marriage"

2018-11-21 01:25:57 UTC  

and those people were pushed out because they're out-of-touch losers.

2018-11-21 01:26:05 UTC  

the religious right is stone dead.

2018-11-21 01:26:06 UTC  

They still have a lot of power

2018-11-21 01:26:10 UTC  

I wish

2018-11-21 01:26:14 UTC  

honestly i dont understand why its an issue to be gay, as long as others dont affect my life i dont care what they do

2018-11-21 01:26:42 UTC  

>the religious right is stone dead.
as someone that is right-wing. I "pray" everyday that that is true

2018-11-21 01:26:57 UTC  

its not

2018-11-21 01:27:11 UTC  

But aren't you being a little normie about this, Cat? I do think the republicans are just using this time to gain ground and say they are for everyone's freedom. But this deception is still better than the demacrats honestly speaking what they want for the future. It's unregulated insanity that can't hold up in a structured world.
