Thx. Blocked.
What a pathetic existence.
I’ve become confused by the term “lib.” I’ve seen it used to refer to
I no longer understand what it means in any context.
In the context of US political system, it’s opposite of “conservative”. In the context of European politics, it’s libertarian. In the context of leftist politics, it’s “centrist”, or rather “center-right”.
Things are even more complicated than that due to the existence of liberal anti-capitalists that interpret the liberal theory of inalienable rights, which originated in the abolitionist, democratic and feminist movements, as also invalidating the employer-employee contract.
In other words, there is overlap between liberals and leftists as well

Sure, I was just giving the shortest possible overview.
While that helps, what doesn’t help is that people don’t often specify their context when they use it. An American commenting on Australian politics might very well use their own colloquial definition.
I reckon it’s safe to assume it’s option three. On lemmy, option one tends to include a slur, and option two tends to be in German.
