Come on Democrats...go to bat for me....I'd really like my daughters to benefit from affirmative action and maybe get some free schooling....I'm thinking that despite being Caucasian they should be able to "choose" their ethnicity...right?
Liberalism has nothing to do with "choosing an ethnicity". That would be personal.
However, once your title invokes "Liberals" the OP suddenly switches to "Democrats". Do you understand the difference?
NEGATIVE
Semantics. Democrats, Liberals, Progressives....all the same group of whackos these days...slightly different levels of whack...that's all. Sorry, try again.
So you affirm that you do not, since this bullshit ^^ is not even close.
"Democrat" refers to a political party. "Liberal" refers to a philosophy. They don't even perform the same
function. And then "Progressive" refers to a sociopolitical trend that was happening a hundred years ago which has long since passed. In other words there was a time in history, briefly, when you could find some particular person may have embodied all three. But that time has long passed, and they're independent of each other anyway.
Were this not the case you could actually render a definition for each term. And you've already admitted (or claimed) the inability to do that.
So you've got three different things going on there and you're either pretending them to be all synonyms or just too damned lazy to differentiate between them. Start there and maybe you can actually launch a point, but wallowing in deliberate ignorance is not gonna cut it.
