I’m just in disbelief that when the wise man points at the moon, you’re still looking at the finger and missing the entire point, which is to say that as much as you complain about those big bad liberals, they’re still the ones who actually end up passing the major laws that set the foundation for progress; and alllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the decades of cute sit-ins and protests by activists against fascist Republicans (of the modern day) would NEVER, EVER achieve a modicum of change.
Without those southern pro-slaver conservative Confederates, the protests wouldn’t have been necessary.
FTFY.
And do tell me — which ideology and which party did all those Civil Rights activists from James Clyburn to John Lewis end up joining in Congress…? And which party does MLK Jr.'s descendants , and the vast majority of the black community continue to caucus with today…?
Lol yea I’ll give you that, because the worst thing that can happen to a lib is being accused of perpetuating an oppression that they consider themselves to be fighting against. It’s the quality that both makes them stand in the way of progress and also receptive to agitation
The White liberal is a person who defines themselves as White, as an oppressor, in short, and retreats in horror from that designation. However, they only retreat halfway, disavowing the title without giving up the privileges or tearing out, as it were. The fundamental trait of the White liberal is their desire to differentiate themselves psychologically from White Americans on the issue of race. The White liberal wants to think and wants others, namely people of color, to embrace brotherhood. White liberals have two basic aims: to prevent polarization and prevent racial conflict." - Lerone Bennet Jr
So it’s said, we shouldn’t let perfection be the enemy of progress. These purity tests and Gatekeeping only work insofar as they have someone open to change from the inside where the laws are made.
Thank a White Liberal for the passage of the Civil rights act and for being a pathway to change; for, therein again lies the difference that you so whimsically continue to dodge. Liberals have always been the gateway for change. Hence why the aforementioned activists joined their banner.
Never once conservatives.
And for what it’s worth, I’m significantly left of the average Democrat and modern liberal.

Lmao without those libs obstructing progress those ‘cute’ protests and sit-ins wouldn’t have been necessary

Oh yeah, “those libs.”
