Calling social conservatives liberals that don’t like abortion, no difference, is absurd.
Social liberals overwhelmingly vote democrat and liberal, social conservatives overwhelmingly vote republican and conservative, in fact they are the back bone of conservatism and the portion of the electorate which moderate republicans and the American left have the worst problem with.
It's no less absurd than saying that libertarians are just liberals that like guns, which is what started that exchange.
Goose, gander, sauce. I say we call out both of them.
“Calling social conservatives liberals that don’t like abortion, no difference, is absurd.”
That was the first part of the point I was making, which was saying that “libertarian = liberal that likes guns, but doesn’t want to pay taxes” is equally absurd.
Before you go on to produce anecdotal evidence, I can provide plenty of anecdotal evidence to “prove” either of these statements are true (or false). Reality is far more complex.
