      Bolsonaro’s Party: “Partido Liberal” = “Liberal Party”

      The actual meaning of political words is relative to the current geopolitical landscape. At the moment Liberal means “I love billionaires and I hate the poor”.

        Capitalists have been trying to steal the term multiple times — there is nothing liberal, liberties or freedom under the hierarchy of capitalism. Liberal is relative, and relatively speaking it’s anticapitalist.

        Newspeak is invented all the time. It’s everyone’s responsibility not to accept fake rhetoric

            Every time I apply something liberally, somewhere a right winger gets a pain in their shoulder and can’t heil for a while, and capitalism crumbles a bit more

          The world moves, you can’t use terms from 300 years ago in today’s world.

            Someone should really update Wikipedia, they’re still in the year 1723 with this anticapitalist description

            Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, and equality before the law.[1][2][3] Liberals espouse various views depending on their understanding of these principles but generally support private property, market economies, individual rights (including civil rights and human rights), liberal democracy, secularism, rule of law, economic and political freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, and freedom of religion,[11] constitutional government, privacy rights, and regulations on the role of technology in the private and public sectors.

              Interesting, never visited that page so I didn’t know. Thanks for the heads up, comrade.

                  At least it wouldn’t be nazist, white supremacist propaganda.
