Most of them are too cowardly to maintain the line in the face of (albiet belated) scorn from their peer group. Those that aren't get cushy media jobs.
Literally this. My partners dad is the most capital L liberal I’ve ever met and he’s such a fucking loser.
They’re having a family hardship rn and he’s the only one with any semblance of security and he refuses to help and when he actually finally does throw some breadcrumbs their way it’s so begrudgingly.
Like he has an opportunity rn to put his money where his mouth is but can’t help revealing that none of his principles or politics are actually based in love and compassion for the other humans he shares this planet with, much less his own direct family, it’s just about have the DNC approved talking points on hand whenever he’s in a conversation
Being a Lib to him is more about "being right" than anything else. He doesn't actually believe in anything. Except perhaps his own superiority over everyone else.
What I see from the lanyard types is a position that the Iraq War wasn’t bad in the abstract but bad because Dubya didn’t follow proper protocol in authorizing the war. Pusillanimous triangulation as usual.
Libs would never admit it to the point of hiding it even from their significant other but they have an emotion that can be stronger than hate when it comes to chuds. They envy them.
Chuds get to be openly as racist, hateful, raving, and ranting as they want.

Are you American? I've found a lot of American boomers seemingly don't even actually care about their own children.
i am, he isn't but he's doing his best to assimilate to that for sure
They have their stock portfolios to worry about. Kids are nice for the occasional photo op, but there are priorities here.

The world if Dubya followed proper protocol

In a way that libs have to be drunk and comfortable for, like that Seldowitz zombie
