I suppose it depends on your definition of 'Liberal'.   Labels can be deceptive and I've never really considered myself as a 'Liberal', nor a 'Conservative' by the definition of the meaning of the tags.  If I was to really stick a label on myself, I probably consider myself 'Middle of the Road'.

Everybodys different, and one mans 'Liberal' might be considered anothers 'Conservative' in some contexts.

Is it cold in here?:
>If we're talking to someone in a mod or admin voice, we'll make it clear.

For instance,
Administrator Comment Everyone willing to be respectful and civil and welcome others in turn is welcome here. The mix here has wound up pretty left-wing but that's just something that happened. The administrators and the most persuasive of the long-term members are unanimous and emphatic that we don't want an echo chamber (the suggestion has been made!). If the moderation team has to work harder to keep the peace because of a politically mixed population, well, that is what we're here for.
Besides, personally, I'm inclined to welcome anyone who quotes RAH about acceptance of AIs.

Blond genug....

For your location, I'd call it a liberal that wants to see David Gray sainted for his actions in regard to gun laws.

My store gets a lot of tourists (Well, Vegas...tourists.... ehh) and in the Wal-Mart I work in, well, I'm the guy that knows about and sells guns. I talk to our tourist customers... and at my back is a triple locked case with three dozen long guns in it, and many foreign tourists are amazed at it. So I've known about Gray for about... mmm, seven years now.

I don't know if it is a lesser liberal that goes about knocking over Anzac Day flowers and tripping old folks, or just plain viciousness.

I envy those places that are still showing reverence for those that gave there all. Even in my Army days, back when it was still the Soviet Union, one had to admire the old men that wore their Great Patriotic War decorations on their clothes. They still do... but there are far, far, fewer and they are much older. You lot, and Oz, and Canada, and Israel.

Us? Memorial Day got turned into a bleeding Monday holiday.

I am not well constructed for prayer, and I am not all that sure it would be welcome in this echo chamber. Probably get me hacked, if not already. If we fall, it will be from within, and hopefully the sparks like your country and some others see the fall and take note.

A bit disjointed... had a nap, and the damnedest thing... a nightmare. No, there's not a drop in the house.

We're of similar vintage. I did stuff in subs in the 80s and 90s. Made a hole in Die Mauer. 10 yrs old when the Eagle landed.

I'm Australian though. Enough cultural similarities so when we come to a difference, the impact can be jarring.
