There is always an excuse to break the law
The law isn't always right, Sometimes you have to break the law to do what is right
Not in a Liberal Democracy
I disagree
You're not -in- a liberal democracy
Breaking the Law can be acceptable no matter what system you are living in
@Eccles Then what am I in?
If you're talking about the USA, it's a constitutional republic
Which is a Liberal Democracy
Those words no longer have any meaning in the USA
If you want to go by definition barely any country is a Liberal Democracy
@Eccles And why not?
Why not what?
Since most countries especially those in Europe don't really have much liberty
Why do those words not have any meaning anymore?
Because the socio-political discourse have degraded so badly that those words have been redefined to mean something other than they were intended for
In America, Liberal is now used as an autonym for "marxist"
@Eccles Nah, not really, not to people who don't live in an alternate reality echo chamber
Wheras "Democracy" is used to describe "vote for stuff at a federal level and force it on the states in violation of the 10th ammendment, provided it fulfils our marxist narrative"
If the definition is not homoegenously agreed, then it is meaningless
Sort your border and immigration problems out and stop whinging to non-yanks
@Eccles Uh, but most people do agree to that definition because it is correct
if someone says liberal here in america, i have to ask them to define it for me because I don't know which group they are describing anymore.
No, it is not
Exactly, Chimera
And if you have to ask what it means, then it falls down as a descriptor
The majority of people in America mean "lean slightly or far to the left" by liberal, it's pretty ubiquitous, the only people that don't mean that are "Minds IRL" people
Many people who have largely Progressive views consider themselves to be Liberal which really skews how you can define it
And they're a minority
That's because the majority of people in America are fat or retarded or both
A substantial Minority
I mean did you see the Minds IRL people? Not exactly paragons of thinness
I'm not interested in Minds IRL
Me neither
I'm interested in why you thought it appropriate to come on here and mutter about some throw-away comment by the hairpiece in chiefe
The whole fucking thing from 2015 onwards has been one monumental collection of unjustifiable shit
And it was all started, whether you are in the USA whinging about trump, or in the UK about leaving the EU, by those same people you are calling "liberals"
It goes against what the founder of this Discord supposedly believes in so I thought you know, the people here might find it *interesting*
Guess not
