Did you just take a civics course or something? We’re making the same point. You’re using liberalism in the correct way, but it’s not correct in the current social structure and your argument is getting lost. Liberals are a party. A left of centre belief today. The description you just posted is more of a libertarian and right view point. In fact the comic posted is satire of the right a-la Charlie Kirk “curious”. I think we’re on the same page but your verbiage is inciting the wrong message.
First is political liberalism which espouses wholesome ideas such as individual freedoms and democracy. Second is economic liberalism centred around free markets, private property, and wealth accumulation.
This is capitalism and libertarianism
justifies the use of state violence to safeguard property rights, over supporting ordinary people, which directly contradicts the promises of fairness and equality.
I’m not talking about liberals as party. I’m talking about the fundamental ideology that the state is built on in Canada. Every major party in Canada is a capitalist party. Liberalism at its core is a right wing ideology.
It’s also weird to claim that the view point that the workers should own the means of production is libertarian and right wing. My claims, to spell it out for you, is that it’s not possible to have meaningful democracy when a handful of oligarchs controls factories, stores, and decides the purpose of work. True democracy requires democratic ownership of the means of production where workers are able to do collective decision making.
It seems that you might be confused here, and perhaps would yourself benefit from taking a civics course sometime.
I didn’t misinterpret anything you said, but it’s pretty clear that you’re the one acting in bad faith here. Now that I’ve pointed out the fallacy of your claims you rush to make a personal attack and disengage. Bye.

Ok so you’re just being antagonistic and misinterpreting or acting in bad faith. I’m done. Good bye.

Be honest, you only told people to not engage the troll so you could do it yourself
