I believe in Night-watchman state and I think that any country currently would benefit massively from supporting liberal values.

But I also wonder, what did liberals do to deserve all the hate they get online?

    The confusing thing for those of us not from the US is that Americans use “liberal” when they’re often referring to people who are socialist.

    It doesn’t really make any sense.

      We are binary. We are a coin with liberal on one side and conservative on the other. Which is handy because the more people define all the specifics of liberal, neoliberal, socialist, communist, progressive, and whatnot, the less I’m able to identify with any of them.

      I am part of the union of disparate philosophies that does not want Trump. That’s a bit of a mouthful, though.
