Comment on How come liberals dont hate conservatives the way conservatives hate liberals

“Conservatives” are just liberals either openly flirting with fascism or simply are fascists pretending not to be fascists. They don’t hate their fellow right-wingers (yes, liberalism is right-wing ideology) - they are goading their fellow liberals into either joining them, or, at least, remaining quiet while they hand more and more power to fascists.

Yes. It is.
It doesn’t matter where you are… liberalism is purely a right-wing ideology - there has never been anything “leftist” about it. It’s very easy to check for yourself - simply try and find an anti-capitalist liberal.
You’re going to be looking for a long, long time.

why would I look for that. That is the extreme. left does not star way on the left more than right starts way on the right. Its like saying someone is not right unless they are against any social program or public property of any kind.

No. It isn’t.
Being pro-capitalist is extreme… which means being liberal is extreme by default - it has merely been so normalized for you that you don’t actually see how batshit insane it truly is.
Do you require me to explain to you what left and right actually mean? I’d be happy to do so - and I can guarantee you that it will be perfectly painless.
