What are Liberals trying to Liberalize?

[Liberty]

Since the father of liberalism, John Locke, wrote his famous treatise on government (and the second one which is more famous), the term liberal had its root word "lib" which is short for "liber," or "liberty" which is defined as, "free." So...how is a liberal today in any way associated with promoting liberty? Seems to me unless it has something to do with homosexuality the liberal will always prefer to create laws and regulation, which are inherent in their definition a means to remove liberty, more than they are concerned with repealing unnecessary laws and regulation that remove liberty. How odd.

Liberal = Progressive = Socialist = Commie = Anti American

 

[Claudette]

What do they want??

Thats easy. They want the Govt to take care of everyone. They want those that work and pay taxes to take care of those that don't.

They want fairness both social and economic.

They dont' really care who foots the bills to make their utopia happen just so long as it does.

Idiots in my book.

Thier sole aim is control over the masses.

First, know your enemy. But even before that, make certain that they are your enemy.

The Founders knew what Govenment could become. We are witnessing thier warnings now.

What do liberals want you ask?

They want to eat your children and fook your mutta.

Hope that helps in your quest for understanding and enlightenment.

It's interesting when you put it that way. In some sense we are privileged to witness it...in another way we are cursed for it.

 

[Two Thumbs]

They want to free government from the constraints of the Constitution

Free us from all responsibility


And that's really about it. Achieve that and we will have a totalitarian utopia.

Sort of like a multi-car pile-up at a NASCAR event.

You people are troubled.

No, sort of like some liberal moron taking a shit on a cop car at an OWS camp.

You liberals are the most disgusting creatures on the planet.

Progressives wouldn't understand the concept of classical liberalism..

Progressives goals are authoritarian government - they want 1984..

We will all be equal then - no rich, no poor just slaves. Equal misery.

Good work. Think of us as something other than human. If you try hard enough, you can justify anything in that tiny brain of yours.

How can "totalitarian" be a "utopia?" You mean there's people that think that once ALL their FREEDOM is GONE, they'll be HAPPY?

True. They left thier writings that address the course to take. Question is? Will we?

I know... it's hard for you creatures to rebuttal your OWN activity with something other than some lame ass rhetoric.

Do yourself a favor and STFU.

Sorry.....gotta go with a Recognized-authority, when it comes to the English-language.​

Webster​

liberal: (adj) : marked by generosity : given or provided in a generous and openhanded way : not bound by authoritarianism, orthodoxy, or traditional forms : of or constituting a political party in the United Kingdom associated with ideals of individual especially economic freedom, greater individual participation in government, and constitutional, political, and administrative reforms designed to secure these objectives.

liberal: (n) : one who is open-minded or not strict in the observance of orthodox, traditional, or established forms or ways : an advocate or adherent of liberalism especially in individual rights

 

[Liberty]

Shaman proves like a good modern liberal that history means nothing to him. It really is easy to explain their one dimensional thinking. How about you just answer the question proposed? How does a liberal practice liberalism? Also, I think it is cute that shaman has no clue what a root word is in latin based languages.

People like you are going to make November so much more enjoyable. Do you have early voting in your state? Wanna come down to Florida for a few days of fishing and camaraderie during election week? I'll buy you a beer when the race is called.

The tiny, closed in minds in indoctrinated extremist Republicans. Obviously. I thought everyone knew.
