Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I assumed it was just "hire more LGBTQIA+ prison guards!" so-true

It's worse than that. What I've seen recently because of federation is "(verbal performative) support for disadvantaged people as long as they maintain a successful small business in a disadvantaged area for no less than three years and aren't anywhere to the left of Bernie Sanders!"

A liberal is someone who supports capitalism. Republicans are largely conservative liberals and fash. Dems run the gamut from conservative lib to moderate lib to progressive liberals (a social democrat) like Bernie Sanders. People on here are against capitalism and are largely marxist or anarchist of some stripe

Read up on some liberal theory, then maybe some Marxism as a treat. Doubtful you'll still call yourself a liberal
