That is all accurate and I don’t disagree with you. But the picture was of an invasion under Bush, not Clinton, so I responded as such.
The problem that I take is l:
Also all American politicians of “both” parties are liberals.
I’m wondering what your definition of Liberal is. Up until like 2020, it was Liberal v Conservative and when I look it up in the dictionary I get
“Relating to or denoting a political and social philosophy that promotes individual rights, civil liberties, democracy, and free enterprise.”
But Liberal on Lemmy appears to be anything to the right of a theoretical Star Trek post scarcity utopia.
Noe liberal and neo con differences are how you “kiss babies”/comment on social and cultural issues, while electioneering to make the war mongering big bucks from power.
Ah yes, the famous liberal, George Bush.
Holy shit guys he almost gets it.
You’re right there dude. Micrometers from figuring it out.
When you draw the line of Liberal v Conservative so far to the right it includes George Bush, it ceases to lose all meaning.
Liberalism is the ideological component of Capitalism. Conservativism is a type of Liberalism.
Liberals were so proud to have Dick Cheney’s endorsement last election. And they were big mad that GWB didn’t endorse.

The internationally recognized measure of left-right. Not the uniquely American one that’s skewed all to fuck.
There is no left at all in American politics. The closest we’ve gotten is Bernie Sanders. He’s a moderate everywhere but here.
