In this survey of liberal style, a number of different themes can be observed. One of the foremost is the notion that liberals are lazy, or not zealous enough in their attempts to deal with incorrect, harmful, or counter-revolutionary principles in their society. Whether or not we agree with these observations, it's still possible to see where they originate: in liberal ideas of self-determination, and the freedom of people to hold their own opinions.
