A "liberal" who is actually not one. Typically drinks frappachinos, reads the New York Times, drives a Prius, and listens to NPR. Votes for any Democrat, regardless of actual position on policy, for an endless list of reasons, most of which are unexamined and fallacious. Considers him or herself a radical, a progressive, and believes in grassroots causes without actually supporting any.

Get the Starbucks Liberal mug.The privilege of ignorance claimed by various (but not all) members of the liberal party. This ignorance comes in many forms:
1. The privilege of altering facts about an event to suit one's own agenda.
2. The privilege of labeling people with other political views as racist, homophobic, and xenophobic, while ignoring those same qualities in one's self.
3. The privilege of claiming to be open-minded, righteous, peaceful, and humanitarian, while using violence, hatred, and ignorance to make one's point.
4. The privilege of wanting financial benefits, while ignoring where those benefits are coming from.
5. The privilege of claiming to want freedom, independence, and autonomy for all, while supporting liberal administrations that restrict freedom, independence, and autonomy.

A social libertarian is a person who believes in social liberty, i.e., individual independence and communal autonomy from overarching government or state control.
A social libertarian typically rejects the concentration of decision-making authority into distant, oligarchical, centralized bureaucracies - federal or monolithic - favoring instead the diffusion and localization of that decision-making authority.
Social libertarians support a political, social, and economic environment which allows voluntary accession to associations, but also permits a person to choose to remain free of restraint by society, except in cases in which an individual's claim of freedom interferes with another individual's right to be free from unwarranted, aggressive coercion or harm.
Social libertarians regard free-market capitalism and democratic, communalistic socialism as equally conducive economic means towards the ends of generalistic liberation from tyranny.

Get the Social Libertarian mug.A Conservative Libertarian in the United States is a person that adheres to the constitution as a libertarian does, but will do so in a conservative manner. Conservative Libertarians are conservative in political nature, such as foreign policy, homeland security, and economics while strictly interpreting the constitution as it states. They believe in free rights, liberty, and the opportunity for everyone to make it to the top. Conservative Libertarians leave it up to the individual to determine what is right and wrong for themselves, and leave it up to the states to deal with murder and unjustified actions. Conservative Libertarianism is also a political position that deals with morality and ethical beliefs, based that all men and women are created equal. It is also a political party that does not allow religious beliefs to get in the way of allowing all people (regardless of their background, ethical standpoints, religious standpoints, or sexuality) the promises of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Jim: Hey, John! Did you hear about conservative libertarians? They believe that it is up to the individual to decide what is right for themselves rather than making ridiculous laws that are aimed at 5 people, but directly effect the rest of the state's population! Like the 21 drinking age!
John: Yeah, I heard! And one of their best beliefs is to disregard all religious thinking when running the country to get things done, thinking on morality rather than religion.
Jim: Exactly! It's a shame that they haven't run the country yet because of the damn sheeple we have in this country...

Get the Conservative Libertarian mug.Often used when discussing Black conservatives, this term refers to the notion that white liberals prefer for all African-Americans to fit into one political viewpoint, generally characterized as left-Populist-Democrat. If Blacks all think the same, then the leadership of the liberal white left can regard Blacks as a monolithic voting block. That makes things a lot easier to strategize and manipulate than if the Black population is seen as a whole spectrum of political views -- which, of course, is indeed the case in reality. Thus, when white liberals imply that any politically-aware Black who is not left-Democrat is either suicidal or insane, they are "keeping the Blacks on the liberal plantation" -- and Blacks who are not left-Democrat are spoken of as having "bolted off the liberal plantation." An important facet of this paradigm is that the "liberal plantation" is figuratively a "plantation" because it uses Black voters to serve mostly the interests of a white liberal establishment, not the interests of the Black American voters themselves.
"The Black feminazis ganged up against Clarence Thomas during his Supreme Court nomination not because they thought he was sexist, but really because he had the nerve to bolt off the liberal plantation."
"Black Libertarian Thomas Sowell is sometimes called an Uncle Tom simply because he has wandered off the liberal plantation."
White conservative TV pundit: "Herman Cain is being attacked for sexual harassment by the liberal mainstream press not because he did anything substantially improper, but for bolting off the liberal plantation."

Affected by the disease of ease, poisoned by the deterioration of all the man-made materials they've chosen to surround themselves with, these zombie-like creatures that are incapable of naturally providing for themselves seek to lay all their problems at the feet of big-daddy-government to be "taken care of".
They've been fully propagandized by the government, it's big tech media arm, and the ever broadening promises from their authoritarian liberal "leaders" of "freeshit" (especially those Biden supplied free crack pipes)
Typical example of how their manufactured-rage filled, smooth brains work - "I don't need truckers, I get my food at the grocery store!"
