      Liberals won’t read this, because you’re using an outdated definition of liberal. It’s like being pissed that you can’t call someone ‘gay’ because they’re generally happy.

            Are you saying this:

            By this definition, one can see that “liberalism” is the ideology of Democrats — but that it is also the ideology of libertarians, some Greens, and even some Republicans. It is the dominant ideology of our time, one that reigns in just about any country with a capitalist economic system (excluding some that are arguably autocratic). Socialists oppose this ideology because we oppose capitalism.

            is wrong? How would you define liberalism then?
