    what attitude? cowbee has been nothing but polite in every reply to you. and what do you mean by label and deride? it’s as though you’re replying to the wrong comments because none of this makes any sense.

      The post’s existence is what I’m talking about; that user spends their life hating “liberals” and assigning that label to people they’ve exchanged a sentence with. I’m done here, you can stop responding now.

        Funny you put quotes on the word liberal. You know words have meanings and definitions right? I know many people don’t bother to check a term’s meaning and end up miss using it, but that does not detract from the fact that the word still has meaning.

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberalism

        Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, the right to private property and equality before the law. Liberals espouse various and often mutually warring views depending on their understanding of these principles but generally support private property, market economies, individual rights (including civil rights and human rights), liberal democracy, secularism, rule of law, economic and political freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, and freedom of religion. Liberalism is frequently cited as the dominant ideology of modern history.

        Note that liberalism defends the right to private property (AKA Capitalism). (Also, private property and personal property are two different things.)
