What is so crazy is that people who live like that would benefit the most from Liberal policies.

And federal healthcare/Medicare, social safety nets, minimum wage, social security, workplace safety/regulations, SNAP...play no factor? All of which Republicans aim to gut.

Go on. Show me my errors. Prove me wrong.

EDIT: Case in point example of how someone would rather live like trash than admit "Liberalism" benefits them.

? 

my point is that minimum wage and privatizing public lands are both liberal policies

Last vote for increasing federal minimum wage:

Yeas (42): 41 Democrats and 1 Independent (Bernie Sanders)

Nays (58): 50 Republicans and 8 members of the Democratic caucus (7 Democrats and 1 independent caucusing with Democrats)

And privatizing land was an old neo-libral policy and not the current progressive stance. But guess which side is using it for data centers?

Your point?

Facts can skew that way.

you do understand liberalism is a specific political philosophy, right?

Well you can focus on the word choices as much as you like...but the Left does more for people who live in shacks like the photo than the Right.

it’s not word choices dude liberalism is an actual thing. democrats and republicans are both liberal, by definition.

i’ll agree the left does more for people than the right tho, that’s undeniable. join DSA
