Because it's the "in thing". Gotta fit in with the rest like sheep. Also what everyone else said - ********, lack of experience etc. Most of them have no idea what they're talking about and just repeat ******** posts or result to personal insults when arguing.

Don't align myself with any of the "political" BS in this country since I wasn't born here originally srs

Hope people realize that they never truly had a say on who becomes what in their own country srs

Corruption behind closed doors and the power of money is too strong

Some of the most important movements (womens rights, civil rights) were driven by liberal agendas. They broke the status quo of gender inequality and race inequality.

Conservative ideals, backed by religion are/were the status quo

Several reasons:

- they don't know life yet (haven't owned a home or ran a business yet or paid taxes etc.)

- they are brainwashed in college by communist professors (this is done on purpose)

- they are away from their family, and the State is their family now

There're more reasons, but these are the biggest ones.

Were is correct. Libtardism has become the establishment however, as evidenced by the nearly entirely-liberalised media, school system, and social media.

i don't get it. if 'liberal professors' being unethical is why many young people are liberal, who created the older liberal professors? maybe liberalism is rampant in academia for a different reason?

this "everyone is dumb but me and my group" is starting to sound very liberal of you misc

Liberal professors indoctrinate kids with this bs, and they believe it till they have to actually enter the real world where taxes are paid and there are no safe spaces.

Finally graduated. Work for everything I have. Income tax is 30% and I think it should be more. I would gladly pay 45, even 50% if it would translate into a more equal standard of living for everyone.

yet we have miscers here calling college "brainwashing", and education "indoctrination", in a generalized sense; hallmarks of the authoritarian right and left.

the media is corporate; we show what people consume, and people enjoy outrage. the USA IS getting less conservative over time, but it's still very conservative today. there are very few politicians in america today who would be considered leftist by global standards, or even by political definition.

Liberalism is an ideology that can't exist in reality. If they were open-minded, they would see the bigger picture of reality. There will always be countries and people who want to destroy your country and culture. Liberals want to shut down free speech from ideas they don't like. I went to a liberal university (University of Michigan), and they were constantly pushing liberal ideas in classes that had nothing to do with politics (with the exception of STEM classes).


I believe schools are required to teach Creationism in school now as well as evolution. History classes in school basically teach that ethnic Europeans just love war and are evil. They spend a crazy amount of time trying to make sure everyone knows Hitler was evil for protecting German culture. You will not be taught any opposing viewpoints. You will only be taught the viewpoint they want you to follow.
Just curious, how do you think hitler should be taught in classes?

Ergo, yesterdays liberal is today's conservative in the sense that their values are now the establishment (but with ****ty totalitarian/fuked up views), and yesterday's conservative is todays liberal in the sense that we are trying to bring back older (which are now "new" again) values.

And here we go again, that is 100% COPE.

Brb blanketing entire philosphies and then playing a shell game with who is where when. I would like to see an actual study dictating what you said, shouldn't be too hard since it's just history right?

I'm loling hard, you are almost word for word giving the exact definition of Conservatism and applying it to Liberal.



Lmao @ the mental gymnastics ofhaving to change definitionsto have a ground to stand on. If this isn't textbookCOPINGthen I don't know what is.

The current Republican party should just be called, "The Regressive Party" the plat form shows no progression. Brb still crying over gay rights. Brb start imposing bans based on religion in contradiction of the 1st amendment.

When you are young and have never actually contributed to society yet, or worked for anything in the real world, you see life as how you think it should be rather than how it actually is.

Come now. If something has been the status quo for a while, and then you want to fight to keep those values as the status quo, that is the definition of conservatism. So, being that liberalism has been the status quo for some time now.. todays liberals have become defacto conservatives.

This one is tilting me. So apparently to be labeled a conservatism, you need to follow a status quo and that is it? Lmao strong everything, it's a defined political ideology. I am glad I stopped by this thread, you're definitely contending for this years gold in mental gymnastics.

Im rooting for you brother.

BRB liberals are now conservatives. Words don't have definitions anymore, just ambiguous concepts. l0l

Because the US is far more liberal then it was a 100 years ago & keeps getting more liberal. Go to a way more conservative country like Russia & you will see the opposite of a Bernie voter in that age group. People conform with the political environment they grow up in.
