I just wish we could have clear political terms that don't get co-opted in bad faith.

    Feel free to explain what I "co-opted in bad faith..." as my text was specifically designed to be immune to co-optation either by liberals or fascists.

    I wasn't casting aspersions, just lamenting the communication rift caused by how American politics uses the word liberal.

    If it makes you feel any better it's not even close to being a US-only thing... that which is fundamentally oligarchic is fundamentally anti-democratic by design - yet you will find people who believe that they live in a (so-called) "liberal democracy" all over the world.
