And remember that I make a clear distinction between leftists and liberals since they are two completely different things.

They’re just two labels, but how do you define them?

Yes, please elaborate, darthrush. I really am interested in discussion about it.


You know… I’m a moderate Democrat from Oklahoma, and I’ve really been sick of the actions of many right-wingers. * sigh * Don’t get me started. I am NOT a Republican. …But at the same time, I’ve recently been getting tired of the “social justice” nonsense, among other things, coming from the left. I was at my wife’s extended family reunion last month, and one of her cousins made some comment about “the injustice of gender roles”. -.- I mean, really. Come on, now. And I really have begun to identify with the concept that “tolerance” according to the left-wing, is not inclusive of opposing view. That is to say, the right seems to spuriously use Christianity as a tool to win votes; but the left also attacks it and treats it as unsubstantiated myth while under a banner of supposedly increased tolerance.

So I feel that while the right really chaps me in a myriad of ways, I really am starting to get quite frustrated by the left as well.
