Does someone want to explain the actual definition of a "liberal"?
And no, do not give me some made up label 馃槀. I want to see who here knows the actual definition.

I believe the original definition of "liberal" is generous. When someone gives liberally, they give generously. When you apply something (lotion or ointment) liberally, you are applying it generously, in large amounts.
I know that "liberal" has come to mean different things, especially since the 1960's, but I believe that is the original definition.

@TeresaRudolph71 Definitions and meanings can "change" with the times, right?

@latinbutterfly Yes, indeed they can. "Gay" used to mean happy, many years ago.
I remember a definition that I posted of leftism, a couple of years ago. That sums up the beliefs of the people on the far left. It's a bit long, as I included many beliefs of leftists.

@latinbutterfly Oh wow, all the comments on that post were deleted. That's a shame, as we had a rather interesting discussion. I can't even remember everything that I said there.

@latinbutterfly Ooh, I just found a file that I saved of my definition of leftism and leftists. But it's not the original definition of a liberal, it's more the way some people on the extreme left nowadays seem to think. I could post it, if you like, though it might trigger some people. Then again, it's not the true, original definition, so maybe I shouldn't.

@TeresaRudolph71 Well it's up to you. Might want to get some armor and shield before you post it 馃槀.

@latinbutterfly Ha, I think I would have to prepare to be mass blocked, or flamed. It might be more appropriate for another post, about modern-day leftism. Then again, maybe I'm just feeling a little uneasy, as I know that I'm already blocked by many people and it never feels good to find that I've been blocked by another.
