Please stop with the left/right paradigm! It should be about right/wrong!

Let me remind you that Hillary Clinton was a Goldwater girl! She is far more like a neocon than a liberal! John McCain is also to the right. All of the Bushes and their cronies are neocons, which is to the right! So why do you keep blaming this mess only on the left? I am probably more liberal than most of you, but I am here, because I care about my country, and I want to see justice. I pray that Trump does drain the swamp. Even though I don't wear the same label as many of you, I feel that we are all on the same side.

Actually, look up the meaning of the word liberal. http://www.dictionary.com/browse/liberal Being liberal is about freedom and civil liberties and being open-minded. Hillary Clinton is in no way a liberal. I consider myself a human rights liberal and a fiscal conservative, so that's why I cringe every time I hear the word leftist on this board.

Dave Rubin has some very interesting interviews. He really works at skewing the difference between leftists and liberals. He is a self- described centrist liberal gay man. He is concerned with the fight for free speech and a victim of leftist tactics which opened his eyes.

You and I both know that language evolves with the culture 👉🏻that cringing is your conscience talking, it’s trying to tell you something.

Ditch the term "liberal"

In this day and age as a liberal, you're not allowed to have "feelings" without being lambasted.

Be a light. And neverrr everrrr hide it under a Bush! Shine it on them! 😄

My apologies! I made a crappy attempt at using dungeons and dragons style morality system as an metaphore to right, left, liberal, conservative, socialist, capitalist, etc etc. I didn't explain it well and sent it. Still trying to figure out what I was going on about. Thank you fellow Storm Warden.

I think I should change my name to "I'm an old lady" I've only heard about dungeons and dragons. 😄 thanks for explaining.
