Absolute Proof Liberalism is a Mental Disorder

[IamInuit]

I doubt there are any classic liberals as defined by political theory around anymore.

You mean people who advocate civil liberties and political freedom with an emphasis on economic freedom?

I like that idea, it's why I'm a Libertarian.....although I do have a strong belief in American exceptionalism and that if we're in a war then we should do what it takes to win the war and prevent another war shortly thereafter due to a lopsided treaty.

No that's what you mean. You don't need to be a classical liberal to believe in liberty and political freedom. And its hard to figure out what we are as Canadians, melting pot or mosaic. I don't know the answer. A bit of both I suppose.

Alright, so you are 100% cool with the idea of another culture coming to your nation, NOT conforming to the laws of your nation but expecting YOU to conform to their laws that they have brought with them?

Because THAT is what I'm irritated at, I love immigrants from anywhere and everywhere, this nation was built on the idea that it doesn't matter who your Dad is or who your family is, you can succeed here regardless of any previous class or caste system you may have been a part of....but people coming here wishing to say this is your caste, this is your class, our ideas are better and more worthwhile than the founders of this nation....I'm sorry America did not become what it is today by accepting any old idea that made its way to Ellis Island.

No I'm not ok with that. I'm also not ok with the labeling your country seems to put on everyone. If you are against gun culture you are a liberal or if you believe in health care for all you are a socialist. As if thats a bad thing. No grey in your world. No middle just black and white. When some Americans say exceptionalism they actually believe God himself handed you that antiquated constitution that has no application at all in the real world. The trouble with you card carrying radical righties is that you paint everyone not on side with the same brush. Thats what fascist states do not pluralistic ones.

And no I don't believe Muslims should have a prayer space at the work place or practice Sharia law. That does not make me left or right. It makes me Canadian. The trouble with America is that everything in life is left and right and the physician should heal thyself and quit forcing themselves onto sovereign countries and starting eternal wars. Your countries political philosophy is consumerism and capitalism. All the other shit is window dressing.
