If you believe in democracy, personal rights, and capitalism
🎼 One of these things 🎶 Is not like the other 🎶
🎼 One of these things 🎶 Is not like its brother 🎶
given how much modern ‘conservatives’ hate democracy and personal rights
“This far and no further” politics is a pox on conservatives and liberals alike. This is one of the reasons you see Gavin Newsom fucking around with TERFs in the name of fairness in college athletics. Its one of the reasons why so many people soured on Barack Obama inside his first term.
“Personal Rights” always seem to terminate at the edge of popular consensus.
Well, yeah. It’s perfectly acceptable to believe in two of those things and not the third.
That just means you’re not a liberal.
(And really, since capitalism constantly corrodes democracy and personal rights, being a liberal is kind of a self-contradictory nonsense stance. Shame that so many people still are liberals.)
