Do any of them know what the word “liberal” actually means?

    I used to think it just was synonymous with the left, but I’ve recently been seeing a lot of comments on Lemmy saying liberals aren’t leftist so now I am not sure if it means anything or if those Lemmings are just dumb.

    I’ve been fucking telling you, insisting on a Eurocentric definition confuses people, and that confusion is exploited by fascists.

    American definition of liberal: socially liberal

    European definition of liberal: economically liberal
