Correct! We need to start controlling and being more precise with language. These are not “liberals”; they are Leftists, which is an umbrella term for various subgroups, such as socialists, communists, anarchists, and the list can go on. We should also not use the term “Progressive,” as this implies a positive connotation which should not be introduced.

True, that. Another word warpage, Newspeak.

We used to call them pinko commies.

I agree with all of you here, I have been fighting to reclaim this stolen label from the LEFT for a long time!

LEFTist are not and cannot be liberal, the concept of liberality is totally foreign to their authoritarian & doctrinaire mindset.

Liberal adjective - 1) Willing to respect or accept behavior or opinions different from one's own; open to new ideas.
