He is very incorrect

This to me encapsulates the American “progressive” liberals illiteracy regarding politics and they’re inability to recognise that other countries however adjacent in the imperial core just do not operate in the same wacky way US politics does.

Hearing someone so embarrassingly mischaracterise several UK cities with a rich political history down to “nooaaww the inner cities aaaarrrr liberull but the suburbs are conservative” and then just misrepresent or flatly get wrong the political landscape currently is just wild given his confidence.

My dude the incredibly down trodden satellite housing to a large city you keep circling back to is not rich and conservative you fucking dolt.

Progressivism = china town and liberalism

That’s it, that was his whole spiel was

“this city is progressive, i mean they have china town… liberalism”

THATS IT!!

This is someone thinks they are a socialist and knows what privatisation is but their understanding of even liberalism is “liberalism = progressive social justice” so like lmao.

And before anyone shakes their torches at me, this dudes is literally mansplaining this to this disinterested women about a country he isn’t from, about policies he doesn’t understand.

Wine cellar liberal thinking he can problem shoot a system he’s not involved in or aware of.

Wild. My family should have never left Cork.
