    Hey all you haters, the Americans redefining liberal to mean not liberal is really fucking annoying. Stop it!

      There is a need to redefine the qord in the US. Liberals are just right winged politicians. Always have been. In the US they posed as “left”, but the US doesn’t have a left. You can only choose wether you get to use lube when they fuck you.

      In europe the “liberals” are economically right and socially “not strongly defined”. They don’tcare about people. They only care about money and free markets. They are capitalists, but they are not nazis. In the Netherlands we’ve had a liberal regime for 20 years. They killed most social institutions by which they’ve paved the road for the rise of the far right, but they are not nazis.

      In europe there is no need to redefine the word. We know exactly what it means and we know the stereotypes who vote for them, they are not nazis. They are capitalists.
