“Underlying premises of liberalism... “
-————_———_————_———————

You have written a summary of these premises on your “about” page which is very good. Anyone can just click on your name at the end of your comment to read it. I am curious about the deeper psychology of these things and would like to read more if you can recommend books that have influenced you. It would also be nice to read other of your FR comments except it takes so long to scroll thru the history.

The leftist agenda is driven by communists who want to undermine everything that makes America great.

I think the point of the thread is that it is true fascism rather than marxism, hence the coining of the term “liberal fascism” which I understand as, please correct me, liberal in the sense of the innocuous term they use for themselves, and fascist in its technical sense as governmental controlled, totalitarian monopoly.

Forgive me as I am a language maven above all else. It is not always a good thing as I can become distracted from the point by grammar and terminology. I do NOT correct you except to try to get to the bottom of how you are saying what you mean.

I suspect your thinking to be that marxism must be defined, a posteriori, as suppression of dissent. No?

Objection. Assumes facts not in evidence.

LOSE, not loose...

Wish we had an “edit” feature.
