Do you actually know what Liberalism is?What the hell do you think the Constitution is? Left-leaning my ass.You're either stupid or ignorant, well, or both since they're not mutually exclusive.ROFLMAO! You think the American Revolutionaries were gub'mint worshiping lefties? Hate to burst your bubble but the gub'mint worshipers like you were on the side of the British Crown.
Thanks for the ludicrous attempt at historical revisionism, I got a really good laugh out of it.
I do too, especially when I think of the 500,000 righties running off to Canada so they could be
Your ignorance of history and philosophy is showing again, the American Revolutionaries were indeed liberals as in actual LIBERALS in the vein of Locke, Smith and Hobbes, not authoritarian collectivists calling themselves "liberals" (like you), the only claim the modern "liberals" have to the liberalism of the American Revolutionaries is that you are slightly more liberal than Josef Stalin.
You have absolutely no idea what the concept of individual liberty means nor do you have any idea what the founders were actually fighting for or against, hell it's amazing you folks can manage to draw breathe without your government masters giving you leave to do so and it's absolutely NO surprise that when any sort of disagreement arises you invariably resort to force (either personally or via proxy in the form of government coercion) in attempt to get your way.
... but again thanks for the laugh, keep 'em coming.
How odd you pick a fight over Loyalists and Patriots. Loyalists tended to be the wealthy or those grounded in the Monarchy, while Patriots tended to be the educated and strident believers in the Age of Enlightenment. Then there were the fence sitters who didn't want to make a commitment until they saw a clear path for the new country.
We can argue all day about those numbers and never come to an agreement about what they mean. What we do know is that Loyalists tended to be right thinkers, with wealth, land, and public recognition. Patriots could be either left or right but were predominately left thinking as reflected in the writings of the day. The fence sitters are broken up and represent women, who supported their husbands, native Americans who tended to be Loyalist for the promise of protection the Crown offered and Blacks, who were offered freedom by the Crown. There was also a group of religious people who were stridently non-violent and refused subscription. These people tend to be right thinkers.
Insulting someone by saying that someone is so stupid they have trouble breathing is nasty. So I won't insult you by saying your ancestors were punk ass traitors who sucked red cock. You can see little is gained by going down that path.
What we do know is that 80,000 Loyalists left the country when the Monarchy lost the war. They fled to Canada or went home to Great Britain.
The founding fathers had a deep mistrust of government and a good number of them, including 4 of the first 5 presidents were slave owners. Drop the left-thinking love of big government and taxes shit.
Puhleeze, the Founders were pragmatic men interested in building a nation. The Articles of Confederation prove they were fed up with weak centralized government.
Ah, the liberal definition train is coming. You just don't understand the definition of socialism/feminism/liberalism (or any left-wing idiocy)! You see, feminism is the equality between sexes!
Thankfully we have google to sort out the real definition today. This is what liberalism is:
And most of them don't care whether it's legal or not either. Violence is their way.
Don't for a moment mix the modern day regressive liberalism with the classic libertarian liberalism. They are polar opposites, liberals just decided to co-opt the term. They always claim they are something great and amazing, which they are not.
