We are supposed to argue. I think that was the entire point of having free speech really. Constructive argument not just threatening from two opposing viewpoints.

that is correct thats one of the points of free speech is also used to speak agenst a government with out fear of being killed or inprisend

Intentionally designed to give everyone a voice. Even the people who are wrong. LOL.

that is one of the side affects

That's true but when you sometimes get an oblivious guy whose wrong you can tell them and they won't argue but question everything you just said that's the worst side effect

oh been there done that had to deal with a GN on one of my memes

**you might be a liberal

Not a fan of the constitution. It is not liberal. Either is the bill of rights. It was intentional.

The constitution and bill of rights are liberal as f**k.

For the time period it was written in, the constitution and BoR was pretty radical and DEFINITELY focused on expansion of individual liberty. If you're using the modern political version of liberal I guess I'd have to concede to you, but in a classical sense liberalism is what founded our country.

Many modern conservatives are trying to "conserve" classical liberal values, such as the right to free speech, less government influence and thereby more individual freedom, etc.

I think you are very confused. Don't conflate mere words and their definitions with your own, especially from different time periods.

The definition of classical liberalism isn't mine. You seem to be the one confused, as you can't tell the difference between classical liberalism and modern progressive liberalism. All you see is the word liberal, with no understanding beyond such.

You understand. Liberalism and Democratic positions are very different. Liberalists focus on individual rights and less obtrusive govt.

Despite being very true it's kinda outdated to bring this argument

The truth doesn't have an expiration date, imo. The past also directly led to the present, so doesn't seem particularly useless to be informed about it.

The guy you first replied to wasn't talking about "classical liberalism", or the webster dictionary definition of liberal. So any argument you were trying to make is either irrelevant or simply wrong.

Definitions DO matter. And I'm here telling you that you are using the WRONG ones and making piss-poor arguments.

Funny because when it was written those parties did not exist. You should read more and rant less.

Where did I mention party?

maybe you ought to try some reading?

Liberal is a party. It is just lipstick on a pig. The Democrats were always considered liberal. It is just a meme dumbass. Move on.

What happened to "We're supposed to argue. That's the entire point of having free speech really. Constructive argument not just threatening from two opposing viewpoints."? Can't practice what you preach?

We did. You started ranting. It is no longer constructive. You are just a loony whiner who has no desire to learn. You are worse than a liberal really. You think you know the truth and you refuse to listen to other viewpoints. I no longer care to hear yours. It sucks. That is the entire point of freedom.

Welp, living proof you can't help stupid.

Just read more. You will be ok. You are not stupid. Just no very well informed. And I don't hate you. I feel pity for you because you have allowed hate to enter your views. It will only rot your soul. But have an open mind. Listen more than you speak. It is why god gave us TWO ears.

The separation of beliefs started during somewhere along Nixon's first time in politics and it's truly hard to say which year is true since the parties beliefs changed but not the main theme

You dont have to get angry you are being educated in something you dont know

I remember my clash with free speech issues.
