    🎵 Well once I was young and impulsive

    I wore every conceivable pin

    Even went to those socialist meetings

    and sang all the old union hymns!

    But now I've grown older and wiser

    and that's why I'm tuuurning you innnn!

    So love me, love me, love me,

    I'm a liberal! 🎵

    The liberal to fascist delay has reached the projection watermark, with the comfy fed-loving liberal loosely appropriating the lingo of some struggle against oppressive power while wielding that power against actual threatened groups for whom :vote:ing will continue to solve nothing, under the justification that it is actually they who are the larping wreckers.

    Someone posted that quote the other day about how the unborn are the easiest to advocate for because they make no demands of you, and its just clicked for me that liberals treat social movements the same way the far right treats fetuses. To them the perfect movement is the hypothetical one, but once you begin to actually exist in this world and act according to it's circumstances then you are a sinner.

        That reminds me also of Chuck Schumer's hypothetical idealized nuclear family that he supposedly bases all of his political choices on. Can't base policies on real life or real people, it's just too messy.

    This fucking country.

    "The Red states are setting up to murder god knows how many women and children for the crime of getting a basic medical procedure but using violence to stop violence is wrong because I get my morality from sunday morning cartoons!"

    Though this isn't even right because these days even in sunday morning cartoons for kids they kill agents of the oppressive government.

      they kill agents of the oppressive government.

      I'm afraid those are non-white governments and therefore don't count.

    At the risk of invoking Godwin's law, those words could've came straight from the SDP the day after Hitler was made chancellor :

    On January 30, 1933, the day Hitler was appointed Chancellor, the KPD asked the Iron Front, the SPD, the general trade union association ADGB and their organisations, and the Reichsbanner Schwarz-Rot-Gold to declare a general strike against Hitler. The Iron Front declined, issued a call on February 2 to "all comrades of the Reichsbanner and the Iron Front", warning against participating in "wild actions organised by irresponsible people", and exhorted members to "turn all Iron Front events into powerful rallies for freedom".

      I haven't checked history since 1933, but I assume Hitler was voted out of power?

      The dirty secret of Nazi Germany is that they had the support of the liberals, both at home and abroad.

      Never forget this: Every liberal would be thrilled to live under Nazism, even if they don't realize it yet.

      You're either part of the movement to achieve socialism or you're part of the people intending to vote for more liberalism and more movement towards the right under liberal do nothing governments.

      It's clear where this person stands. Which side are you on?

    Honestly confused anyone shared their violent political views with an 18+ vtuber. Not a smart move. On the other hand, I don't think a vtuber can accuse other people of playing dress up.
