Just because you can have reasonable takes about things like xenophobia, guns, the role of government and the elite in society, abortion, equitable access to resources, environmental issues, micro and macro economics, foreign policy, nuance and context in politics, national sovereignty, police actions, labor unions, misogyny, separation of church and state, immigration, and societal norms... doesn't mean you're a "liberal".Watching this makes me feel glad I left the MAGAtards and became liberal myself.
It just means you have at least average intelligence and have the capacity to recognize a cult when you see one. Congratulations. You're normal.
MAGA retards who brand everyone "not like them" a liberal is a basic bitch tactic for authoritarian rule. This was tried in the 1950's with McCarthyism and failed. It will fail again this time too because that shit only lasts as long as people are angry and scared. And it's exhausting to be angry and scared all the time. Especially when what you're told to be angry and scared about keeps changing and nothing ever happens.
Why do you think MAGA Thunderdomers and /pol/ are obsessed with government conspiracies and call anything and everything a CIA/FED psyop? They have to keep being angry and scared otherwise they start realizing life isn't anywhere near as bad as Trump keeps saying it is for the vast majority of Americans.
Yeah, there's problems. There's ALWAYS problems. There have always BEEN problems. It's a big fucking country filled with 300 million people. You can find any specific problem in the endless combinations of human interactions you want. But none of them are so monolithic that you need to completely destroy the fabric of society to fix.
