      Oh I completely agree with you, I’m a more libertarian kind of socialist myself so I definitely don’t think liberalism is the answer. I also think that’s is disingenuous, and really discrediting to leftists as a whole, when people try to say that the GOP is liberal. They’re definitely not; on almost any social issue they are firmly opposed to the liberal position on civil rights, freedom of association, etc etc.

        Yeah, they did turn into fascists in the last few decades… As liberals tend to do.

        But yeah, I was a bit facecious with someone who probably didn’t really know their politics too well. You got me.

        Username checks out, btw. 🖤❤️

        I think it’s disingenuous to leftists to call liberals leftist. Liberals are right wing and always have been.
