I bet a year's salary that "liberal" is as well-defined a concept for this community as "woke" is for the conservatives.

Funny how quickly the insults come out. Must've touched a nerve.

Yeah people hate smug idiots who proudly post the dumbest shit possible. It's pretty annoying to see someone be so stupid and so incapable of self-reflection

Marxism is a political science. It is precise. That is one of it's many strengths.
