So is "liberal" a new insult now, for when someone disagrees with you?

Bahahaha...

I know right?
Where the good old ‘commie’ insult go?!

@MiserableAtBest I still call people that. Better dead than red.
Not to me. I’m [b]proud[/b] to be a liberal in my country.
I assume that only racists and misogynists are against liberals or progressives.

People need to read the definitions of liberal and conservative. To be a liberal is to love people even when they are different from one's self. Liberalism is respect and kindness. @bijouxbroussard

“liberal” is a term from the McCarthy era that ronald reagan popularized in 1980. I would consider it among the living dead of political terms!

It sure seems that way, as if being a liberal is even a terrible thing to begin with. It's not though 🤷🏾‍♂️.
I don’t mind being called that at all. I mean, it isn’t an insult if it’s true.

I do like that the people who tend to use it most publicly seem to be so far right that "vaguely progressive people who ultimately support the status quo, and at most expect band-aid solution to deep seated issues on a case by case basis while doing nothing to support any sort of actual progressivism beyond empty lip service" is considered a grievous insult.

I've been called far worse, that's a compliment.

Not so new, but surely intended as an insult by many. I saw some version of this meme numerous times almost every day, on the first similar site I joined over a decade ago:
