Unrelated rant I intended to post a couple of days ago:
I don’t really like any of the political labels. You know, the words we all know — like “liberal,” “centrist,” “conservative” and many others. I’m not even a fan of the new #BernieBro buzzword “progressive.” While my views are certainly liberal, I wouldn’t call myself a “liberal.” It’s just not my kind of thing. It’s not that I have any problem with liberals or people who call themselves liberals, I just don’t like to call myself that—or any of the other political labels, for that matter.
If you want to call yourself an “unrelenting liberal,” a “consistent centrist,” a “proud conservative,” or even a “#BernieWouldHaveWon progressive,” by all means, go ahead. Just not me.
