Liberal Words

The top Google result (as of November 2020) for this post's namesake.

Titled "Left-Speak : a glossary of terms", it's a strawman of a "liberal" in which the terms "socialist", "progressive", "leftist" and "liberal" are used interchangeably.

In it, "racist" is defined as "anyone who has decided that individuals should be judged not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."

The quote from MLK Jr is used here ironically, to point out apparent liberal hypocrisy. The entry (rather, all the entries, of which there are 77) is a projection of what the OP believes a "liberal" would mean when they speak. This entry continues with a heavily misconstrued explanation of "intersectionality".

So that you may better understand (liberal words) Left-speak in the future, I offer the following glossary... You might want to print this and keep it on-hand for those times when you are unable to avoid (liberal words) Left-speak. "
