People like Sargon have been going 'what should our name be as a movement'

2018-01-11 01:11:46 UTC  

I like the term 'pragmatic liberalism'

2018-01-11 01:11:53 UTC  

Joking aside, just goes on to say that the left/nazi thing is just bs

2018-01-11 01:12:05 UTC  

Or just classical liberalism

2018-01-11 01:12:09 UTC  

No, no.

2018-01-11 01:12:23 UTC  

Classical liberalism is generally considered to be solidly on the right.

2018-01-11 01:12:30 UTC  

At least, in places outside the US

2018-01-11 01:12:42 UTC  

Huh, didnt realize that

2018-01-11 01:13:09 UTC  

Left/Right shouldn’t really be the main focus. It should be libertarianism/authoritarianism.

2018-01-11 01:13:17 UTC  

I like the term pragmatic, because it indicates people in the movement are willing to hold left wing viewpoints and right wing viewpoints on different issues at the same time.

2018-01-11 01:13:26 UTC  

I.E. no ideology automatically holds the right answers.

2018-01-11 01:13:32 UTC  

And well, does not sound pretentious

2018-01-11 01:13:33 UTC  

And liberals, because, well

2018-01-11 01:13:33 UTC  

Left/right changes far too often to be accurate I think.

2018-01-11 01:13:34 UTC  

Liberal

2018-01-11 01:13:48 UTC  

I.E. in favor of personal liberty.

2018-01-11 01:13:52 UTC  

Still the liberal term is pretty tainted as well, no thanks to the regressives.

2018-01-11 01:14:04 UTC  

Only in the US.

2018-01-11 01:14:27 UTC  

Well that is true. I am not even american however but I do read into alot of American news

2018-01-11 01:14:50 UTC  

If you call yourself a 'liberal' of any stripe in the Netherlands, you will be automatically looked on as being right-wing.

2018-01-11 01:15:18 UTC  

Maybe extend it to 'Pragmatic liberal centrists'

2018-01-11 01:15:26 UTC  

But 'pragmatic' is the important part.

2018-01-11 01:15:45 UTC  

And well, pragmatic centrists just kinda sounds with redundant just the two of them there

2018-01-11 01:16:07 UTC  

Then again centrists could be the couldnt care less crowd

2018-01-11 01:16:09 UTC  

I wish I had a direct line to Sargon, but ever since he got kicked off Twatter

2018-01-11 01:16:21 UTC  

Not even YT?

2018-01-11 01:16:23 UTC  

I've tried contacting him on Gab, but he ain't responding there

2018-01-11 01:16:48 UTC  

Hmm might be busy, I mean he did do quite alot of self introspection lately.

2018-01-11 01:16:52 UTC  

Yup.

2018-01-11 01:16:58 UTC  

Anyway, it's 2:15 am here

2018-01-11 01:17:03 UTC  

So I'm gonna crawl into my bed

2018-01-11 01:17:05 UTC  

Aight, have a good sleep

2018-01-11 01:17:32 UTC  

3:15 here. Can’t sleep sadly.

2018-01-11 01:17:49 UTC  

Whats with Tim's fans and proper sleeping times

2018-01-11 01:18:32 UTC  

Who needs sleep when there’s politics?

2018-01-11 01:29:20 UTC  

I mean.. Guess people here me included get pretty into it.

2018-01-11 01:32:15 UTC  

Still, more civil than any ive ever seen

2018-01-11 01:32:32 UTC  

Also, way less smug here.

2018-01-11 01:32:39 UTC  

Well most of us here agree on nearly everything.

2018-01-11 01:32:41 UTC  

Well theres always the smug types.

2018-01-11 01:32:55 UTC  

I mean thats a given on the issue.
