Liberalism

A liberal is someone who supports - liberty, individual rights, market economy, utilitarianism, limited government, individualism and natural law.

Liberalism has two/three main variants - Classical Liberalism, Social Liberalism, Ordoliberalism (Also National Liberalism, Economic Liberalism and Cultural Liberalism - Not proper ideologies that are describing certain liberal view on an issue)

However, thanks to political illiteracy, Liberalism is now being used synonymously with Socialism, Communism, Progressivism etc. Core value of Liberalism is individual liberty, Liberals dont infringe on rights of the individual.

Also a bummer, Democrats arent Liberals.

Bashing
1. Conservative: "Fucking liberals and their limitation of rights"
2. Socialist: "Fucking liberals and their market"
3. Communist: "Fucking liberal imperialists"
4. Communist Alt: "Fucking Neoliberals"
5. Conservative Alt: "Fucking Neoliberal World Order"
6. Social Democrat: "Liberalism has ruined our economy!"

liberalism

the mantra of the post-Bill Clinton democratic party

Judge Jeanine Pirro will agree with me that liberalism can be defined as morally bankrupt, socially deviant, historically inaccurate, genetically unpatriotic, psychologically manipulative, psychiatrically hypocritical, culturally perverted , mentally unpredictable, professionally dysfunctional, religiously sinful, pathologically conniving, financially insolvent, legally criminal and sexually amoral

Liberalism

A broad collection of ideologies which share the importance of protecting individual liberty and the consent of the governed at their core. Liberalism originated from the philosophies of enlightenment thinkers such as Locke and Voltaire, and is based heavily on the social contract theory. Liberalism today manifests itself in many different forms, ranging from Libertarian ideas which state that the government must interfere little in private affairs, to Social/Progressive/Modern Liberalism which holds that the government must step in to protect "positive freedoms" such as the right to an education in order for all people to have the platform needed to achieve liberty. Liberalism is neither left wing nor right wing because of this wide variety.

Barack Obama is an adherent of the forms of liberalism which place emphasis on positive freedoms.

Librealization

When you are scrolling through the pages of an internet publication and come to a realization that it subtlety suggests leftist or liberal views and undertones. Like Buzzfeed.

I visited urban dictionary the other night for the first time in years and was having a good laugh until I had a librealization. To my surprise I found quite a few hate fueled anti-trump & pro third wave feminist posts that had been slid in amongst the funny ones. Btw can you believe they just now added 'the weird part of youtube'??

Liberalized

Literally Hollywood every company mostly people who don’t know what they’re talking about. You put everyone into groups instead of seeing someone as an individual and judge them unfairly for things they’ve never done nor associated with because you can’t see it from their point of view because of your close mind attitude. U claim to fight for equality but punch senior citizens

Society today has become so liberalized I just wish we could get along without demonizing one another.
