sloppy use of the term liberal is a pet peeve of mine lol
cass and rose —
but it's so fun to use it to mean "person i don't like"
kavita —
this, too, is a type of liberalism,
it isn't actually. it's probably some other thing
dysphemism, i guess

Sorry I’ll only use it in the classical economics sense from now on
kavita —
lmao i think mostly it's the commitment to private property tbh!
i mean to take the wikipedia definition:
the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, right to private property and equality before the law
i am behind at least half of these if not more but the private property one just doesn't matter to me at all and that's huge
will —
Kavi’s not into the consent of the governed
kavita —
:T
cass and rose —
i mean "rights of the individual" can mean a lot of shit but yes sure
kavita —
i was gonna say "all of them except private property" but then i thought you'd come for me over whether "rights of the individual" was a useful framework for actually securing decent treatment :T
will —
Yeah I did think that on reading the quote
kavita —
SEE?
cass and rose —
yayyyy we're all so ideologically and rhetorically aligned
