This is a thread where we actually celebrate the leftists for all the good stuff they brought us. The following are things that they gave us
>5 day weeks - labour unions >Social security - FDR >Balanced Budgets - Bill Clinton >Technology - Tech giants >Freedom - Liberalism >Globalism - Woodrow Wilson >End of slavery - Abraham Lincoln
I disagree with leftism but we gotta give them credit because without leftism there would be no democracy.
>labour unions The guys that brought about the downfall of the American auto industry and turned Detroit into a craphole? No thanks.
>Social security Literally a debt hole that the government is too afraid to pull back on because doing so would result in a massive loss of votes
>Balanced Budgets Motherfucker where have you been the last 8 years!?
>Technology You can thank capitalism for this
>Freedom Is a "classical liberal" ideal, which is right-wing.
>Globalism Literally the worst, the UN and EU or worthless organizations, the only good thing about globalism is free trade
>End of slavery Caused by Christian ideals of all men being created equal
Jacob Foster
Delet this

>The guys that brought about the downfall of the American auto industry and turned Detroit into a craphole? No thanks. No im talking about unions. Not racists who destroy a city since it's mostly black
>Literally a debt hole that the government is too afraid to pull back on because doing so would result in a massive loss of votes Social security is the only reason the U.S isn't in much debt. It runs a surplus meaning extra money can go to pay off the debt
>Motherfucker where have you been the last 8 years!? IDK man since Republicans were Congress and Congress makes the budget you ask them.
>You can thank capitalism for this Capitalism suppresses technology. Look up Nikola Tesla and Edison scam
>Is a "classical liberal" ideal, which is right-wing. I'm against that shit that's not true freedom
>Literally the worst, the UN and EU or worthless organizations, the only good thing about globalism is free trade The only good thing about globalism is free movement of people and allowing people to move anywhere which is a really big advantage in our world
>Caused by christian ideals No because the South was christian too.
Lincoln Foster
>Leftism Appreciation Thread >Woodrow Wilson >Bill Clinton FUCK

>I'm against that shit that's not true freedom Okay, I'm gonna focus solely on this, because this is the most important.
You don't know what freedom is. You think freedom is freedom "from" stuff, don't you? You're one of those "positive liberty" types, aren't you?
Even the most tyrannical governments can give you freedom "from" stuff. North Korea gives its people freedom "from" capitalism, and consumerism, and choice, and religion.
The only freedom "from" that is real freedom is the freedom "from" force, whether by government oppression or your fellow citizen. All other freedom is the freedom to do stuff.
Not that I would expect a leaf to know that. You guys don't have freedom of speech or the right to bear arms, you can't even defend yourself against oppressive citizenry let alone a tyrannic government.

Escort services are swamped with requests for Jewess sluts that accept pain. Some of the requests come from Palestinian refugees. The gals return bruised or bleeding but all carry a handbag full of 100 dollar bills. Many requests for a Jewess come from clients wearing a yarmulke or cross, most like to be used as toilet bowls. Yid sluts accommodate them with matzo filled poo.

Are you trying to sound retarded on purpose?
Blake Murphy
>>Freedom - Liberalism
Are you fucking joking?I am free without fucking liberalism
Jace Price
I have Jewish ancestry but I'm certainly not Jewish. Only 1/8th Jewish and it's my dads side
>You don't know what freedom is. You think freedom is freedom "from" stuff, don't you? You're one of those "positive liberty" types, aren't you? Actually yeah I am
>Even the most tyrannical governments can give you freedom "from" stuff. North Korea gives its people freedom "from" capitalism, and consumerism, and choice, and religion. That's true though. The people in North Korea are just as free as people in the West. We are both not free but they are not free in a different way.
>The only freedom "from" that is real freedom is the freedom "from" force, whether by government oppression or your fellow citizen. All other freedom is the freedom to do stuff. Ayn Rand please go
>Not that I would expect a leaf to know that. You guys don't have freedom of speech or the right to bear arms, you can't even defend yourself against oppressive citizenry let alone a tyrannic government. Ok, in a libertarian state who is to grant people the freedom from danger, capitalism religion, hate speech, anti-feminists, racists, sexists, bigots, homophobes, transphobes.

Jack Cruz

Kayden Russell
Lincoln was very liberal he stood up for black rights
Liberals are why we don't have famines, they are why America is so rich in food
Carson Green

Elijah Brown
In their day they were radical leftists, so yes.

>labor unions ruined Detroit That's a funny way of spelling globalist capitalism. >the govt isn't pulling out of social security just because it'd mean a huge loss of votes You forgot the massive loss in living standards for old people and dependents too. >freedom is only a right wing ideal Are you high? >Christian ideals of men being equal ended slavery Reactionary Christian ideals like fundamentalism and divinely sanctioned hierarchy were regularly invoked to "justify" slavery. Enlightenment ideals and humanitarian Christianity were what brought down slavery.
Parker Russell
>In their day they were radical leftists No, they still had a left-wing and right-wing, the Federalists and the Democratic-Republicans

>You are allowed to kill yourself, but the state does protect you from other people Wrong, suicide is illegal and punishable with being institutionalized
>Is great and pro-freedom How? It forces us to work for low money paying rent and if we disagree we get fired. It's a way of structural violence in an indirect way
>you have freedom of religion Tell that to those muslims who are arrested and imprisoned just for being muslim
>isn't a thing I was bullied in highschool trust me it is a thing
>You have freedom of association And what if they follow me? I've been followed around by people making fun of me for being a certain race and I wasn't allowed to leave since school does not allow you to leave. This was like 5 years ago but i still remember.
Connor Price

TJ is the founder of American leftism.
Isaiah Rodriguez
Actually he's right. It wasn't Federalists back then it was Monarchists vs Republicans
Adam Walker
>WTF and this is weird to you how? Have you never watched scat porn even once?
Carter Powell
Most of those things are shit and those that aren't weren't brought about by liberalism. All of leftist ideology is cancerous and its propagators have objectively been the most lucrative mass murderers in all of human history.

Thomas Paine was what we'd call a socialist. Jefferson envisioned an egalitarian, agrarian country. All the founding fathers were considered radicals. They weren't afraid to challenge authority and establish a state based on Enlightenment ideals.

Cameron Brooks
>suicide is illegal and punishable with being institutionalized You just said "in a libertarian state", I never said the USA was libertarian.

>I was bullied in highschool trust me it is a thing "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me". Grow a thicker skin.
>And what if they follow me? Follow them back.
Nathan Lee
Classical liberalism and leftism are completely different. You are getting them mixed up.
Colton Baker
>How? It forces us to work for low money paying rent and if we disagree we get fired. It's a way of structural violence in an indirect way That's in more civilized capitalist countries. In others you get shot or "disappeared" for trying to get higher wages or working conditions.
Hunter Howard
Only weak pussies whine when the government taxes them, shuts down their businesses, or imprisons them for hate speech lmao.

If it ran like it was supposed to there would have been no problem because all the money the boomers have been paying into it their whole lives would still be there for them now.
Logan Jenkins

Ryan Nelson
>Wahhh wahhh the mean kids said bad words! Send them to jail! Grow up
>I scrub toliets if I burp in my bosses face i get fired if he burps in my face I just have to suck it up Then get a different job
>Maybe you should grow a thicker skin and stop whining when the government imprisons people for hate speech See, I get to live in a free country, and if the cops ever tried to arrest me for exercising my right to free speech, I would shoot them.
>I can't it's like 10 people Then you can either ignore them or follow 1 at a time.
