Orange man bad isn't liberalism, lol. Such people call themselves liberals...but that is just an accident of semantics that you should not be confused by.Polar1ty » 20 Jun 2021, 8:28 pm » wrote: ↑ Well here's what the "philosophical priors" had to say about liberalism:
1700s + prior: Monarchy is bad. We need constitutional republics and secularism.
1800s: We need labor unions and government reform of industry while still opposing socialism. Liberal nationalism is good.
Early to mid 1900s: We need to oppose Communism and fascism while extending capitalist reforms.
1960s - present: Racism, sexism, transphobia, homophobia are bad. Nationalism bad. White man bad. Orange man bad.
I say that there exists a political philosophy called liberalism.
Orange man bad is not a political philosophy.
