If those kids could read they'd be very upset right now
It's cool. The neolibs allowed (and encouraged) heights of commodification of education so egregious that much of a generation has been robbed of levels of literacy that were considered "normal" in previous generations.
Thank goodness we have all these meaningful political labels to argue about instead of focusing on the 90% of policy goals we agree on.
In France liberals belong to the right
They do in America as well.

Well I didn't understand the meme then haha
It's interesting that the modern "right-wing" (a rather nebulous term, in itself) seems to use "liberal" as a pejorative. If one is living in a Western society, I would hope that they recognize that it is generally founded on "liberal" ideals.
I do not understand why leberals are supposed to be left wing. Given that free market concepts are far from left wing and the height of liberal ideas.
Because American democrats call themselves liberals, and it is inconceivable to them that they might share something in common with Republicans (gross)
When it's pointed out to them that property as a right is a central pillar of capital-l liberal while being the central point of contention in leftist ideology, they simply deny property is any issue at all to left wing ideology except at the fringe (gross)
It seems to me that this is how the term is used (excessive capitalism) in a lot of non US places.
