Heh “need to done violence”
Answer the question. Why?
How do you say, “your mother was a filthy whore and gave you syphilis” in Mandarin?
I didn’t really follow the campaign, but you’d think “my opponent wants to talk about Israel and Palestine, but I want to talk about you, our community and its needs” would be an easy way to get out of that.
nobody and no organization are perfect but I feel like most people can find something to agree on here

Nuts that anyone would need a source for “people with different incomes consume different media”.
If you’re too dumb to understand that, you’re too dumb to read an academic study.
Then why are you trying to push this idea that “liberal” = “fiscally liberal”? Not only is it not true, it’s not even useful, as we have words like “capitalist” to describe the similar economic thinking between Democrats and Republicans (and I’m using similar very loosely here, it’s only similar when compared to something like socialism).
Sure, depending on how you define chaser, but it’s not applicable here.
Your lips to God’s ears
You are a liar and you keep spreading this bullshit. Both sides in the US support economic liberalism. The US exclusively uses the term “liberal” to refer to social issues.
You can argue about whether that’s a good definition or not, but you CANNOT argue about whether that’s actually how it’s used in the US, both in everyday usage and political journalism.
You are spreading this shit because you like to intentionally blur the difference between Democrats and Republicans.
Hey that was me back when I had a kbin account. I’m the account in the screenshot.
That was a direct response to someone asking if I would have sex with a trans man. I got accused of being a chaser for saying “sure, I guess, pre-transition” (the first part) and being a transphobe for saying “but I’m not sexually attracted to dicks” (the second part). Note those two accusations are more or less mutually exclusive, but it doesn’t matter because they’re both deeply, incredibly stupid accusations. The mods and admins of blahaj pointed out how incredibly stupid the accusations were, and some people didn’t like being called stupid, so they went back to hexbear. And continued to be stupid.
Liberal in the USA means Liberal economically
No, it absolutely does not. You are lying.
You don’t even necessarily need a level 2 charger. I rent and I charge overnight from a regular old 120v outlet (level one charging).

They’re centrist. They’re only right wing compared to you, for whom 99% of the world is “right wing”.
Okay, so you’re saying that liberal politicians use the term differently, but they’re wrong, because “the US” doesn’t use the term differently? You’re claiming that everyday Americans say “liberal” and are referring to the economic sense of the word?
