I think the terms like liberal is very different in the context of political theory vs how it is currently being used culturally.
However, there are other words that derive and are rooted from this definition, like neoliberalism, which is very different from liberalism, and social liberalism.
In fact, in the us, social liberalism is normally shortened to liberalism so that can cause issues too.
A liberal means someone who thinks that they can use the system that is in place, no matter how broken it might be, and make slow gradually progress and change. However, corporate power and others in power have used this desire to use the existing system more as a means of control, exploiting mechanisms like the Overton window and political division. A liberal therefore is often trying to get opposing/bipartisan support to compromise in the hopes it will eventually lead to change while alienating their base who is actively being hurt.
To put it another way, a liberal is someone who will watch their friend get punched in the face and then try to help buy the attacker boxing gloves.
I don’t know where this idea of a radical liberal came from, a radical is the literal opposite of a liberal.
However to your point, Steven Miller is in no way a liberal.
Edit: a liberal can be both right or left leaning, so I’ve updated my comment to better reflect that. It should also be noted that one can shift between the radical/liberal spectrum and is rarely ever static.
Here is a graphic from Full Spectrum Resistance, Volume One: Building Movements and Fighting to Win One to help illustrate what I mean.
Sure but both quantified and qualified, those 4 actions are less effort than the 20 actions of key pressing and reading the terminal.
But doesn’t pressing the up arrow 10 times (and reading each command) waste both time and effort compared to just pressing 2 buttons?
Its ok, gas prices will simply not be used to calculate inflation and the data will be skewed to trend down so that interest rates can be lowered, and more money printing can happen.
Are these the sense-oars I’ve heard about?
Some workers? Are we sure it isn’t all?
I took your comment to mean that you were talking about journalism having political bias in general. I was adding context to that idea since the post features an article from Aljazeera.
For sure, but a regime is more than one person.
The most common symptoms from ibotenic-acid containing mushroom ingestions are gastrointestinal symptoms, and CNS depression or excitation, or both CNS depression and excitation. Other symptoms include confusion, dizziness, dysphoria, visual hallucinations, agitation, ataxia, muscle fasciculation, seizures and coma depending on the amount of mushroom consumed. Seizures are generally reported only in pediatric ingestions.
…and then realize half of them are stupider than that.
My understanding was that the Syrian Kurds received the arms.
The Resistance in Iran is supposed to like the Iranian Kurds, but idk how they feel about the Syrians.
This is stuff I don’t actually understand however, I’m just parroting what I heard my Iranian American friends say.
Think of your average American.
My Iranian American friends tell me they don’t trust aljazeera as a source because they are anti-Iranian. I’m not sure how true that is, but I do know the contents of the videos I saw. And only the Iranian regime had guns.
This is why I have an arch btw.
