No, Bill, you own this one.
If they were opposites they wouldn’t all be Democrats.
Nope- they are both mental disorders
Liberalism is a gateway drug into wokeness. If you follow it to its logical conclusion, you will end up in Wokeville, which is a stop 3/4 of the way to Marx City.
Bill needs a jockstrap for his nose.
Well, there’s liberal and then there’s Liberal. Liberals, in the latter sense, are totalitarian/authoritarian and Woke is right in their wheelhouse.
liberalism embodies many things I don’t care for, but if Maher’s variant of liberalism fully embraces the Constitution, then he may be onto something. Wokism is antithetical to the liberties the Constitution affords us,
The left stole and perverted the meaning of liberal. That was the ideology of the Founding Fathers, now known as Conservatism. Modern “liberalism” is fascist, totalitarian, Marxist/Stalinist, statist, intolerant, anti-God, anti-freedom, anti-science, degenerate, “woke.”
If he means liberal in the ***classical*** way, yes.
There once was a time where the agenda of the liberal was to promote maximum liberty, for the broadest amount of people possible.
Today, it’s folks that under the label of liberal are the biggest culprits when it comes to censorship, centralization of power, coercive measures to play along with their games, usurping the bill of rights thereby stripping the individual and states of their constitutional powers, choosing the economic winners and losers via taxes/subsidies/regulations, carving up the population by demographics and bestowing special rights and entitlements only to a certain group...
The meaning of some words change with time.
Maybe opposite in theory, but often identical in practice.
Hmmm. Liberal are not in favor of liberty. Quite the opposite. Woke is fascism. And that ass hat is all in favor of hating the opposition and repressing it.
The liberals are cheerleaders without scruples or a plan.
The woke are neither stable, or rational.
Shaddap Bill, you spawned Wokeism.....wallow in it fool.
A classical liberal bears little or no resemblance to today’s democrat.
No they aren’t Bill. I know wokesters must be hard to own, but they sure aren’t conservatives.
A classical liberal believes in things like civil liberties, the rule of law, economic freedom, protection of private property rights, freedom of religion, expression, and of the press. All of these are actively suppressed by today's democrats whenever they don't align with their desired outcomes, suppression that's becoming more and more egregious as democrats consolidate their power. Even the worst of the worst would never have dared in the past to release their political rival president's tax returns, you respected the office if not the man and there are things you just don't do for petty vindictiveness. Likewise the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story by the press/twitter/facebook, etc. That's something that happens in banana republics, not supposedly the freest country on the planet.
They are twin sisters, to whom Maher gave birth.
Yeah Bill...that’s the ticket.
No sir
Bill needs a new dictionary or is just plain stupid.
