Trying to argue with conservatives.
All that they’re great at is detouring, distancing, playing down, doubling-tripling down, disassociating, strawmen and more illogical fallacies. They can’t take up an honest debate unless there are rules in place that gives them any outs from being pressed when confronted with questions they can’t give truthful answers to.
For what it’s worth, that goes beyond liberalism and into leftist belief. Liberal has been traditionally used to refer to the left in the US since the US has two right wing parties, but is center to center right literally everywhere else (like Canada).
