Libs vs Leftists. Learn the difference.

On Monday, I was a liberal. On Wednesday, I became a leftist. I will not let my country slide into fascism without fighting back. I have a 73 year old mom who's married to a woman. That woman is one of the most important people in my life. I'm 51 and have known her since I was 19. If anyone comes for them, there will be bloodshed.

ITT: People who think "liberal" means any one single thing.

ITT: People who think "leftist" means any one single thing.

I just want women to feel happy and realized without fear of oppression or the need to partake in political violence, but what the fuck do I know.

It’s both. Most people have no appetite or aptitude for political violence.

Leftists are deluding themselves.

Just like I deluded myself that there was no way Trump could win a second term.

The majority of women are libs. It was the majority of women that voted Trump. They're not going to do anything.

Both can exist.

I agree that women are not going back "into the bottle" as it were. There definitely are females out there opposed to women's rights (especially reproductive and career rights). They will be opposed by a greater number of women + the men who want women to meaningfully participate in society. A nation that refuses to take women seriously ends up cutting their potential leadership, ideas, production, and so on basically in half. Already we see women planning how they are going to resist misogynistic policies, and maybe they don't need my support as a Canadian man but they've got it.

Liberal and leftist are both very vague terms with several definitions that place them both in very different places in the political spectrum.

You should just use other, clearer terms.

40% of voting women support trump

Y'all are delusional

Once more into the breach

Sooooo… better start learning the words to Bella Ciao huh?

I guess I have trouble groking the difference between "liberal" and "leftist".

Could someone summarize?

Good point. It's like keyboard justice warriors ranting about racism compared to actual BLM marchers.

So headscarves no matter what. Got it.

So are you saying liberal is law abiding while lefties is a violent militia?
