You’re correct, I specified “American republicans” to refer to the political party because everywhere else “republican” means anti-monarchist

OK, but that’s not what the word liberal actually means to most people in my experience. Or perhaps another way of saying it is that a lot of people I see getting angry on Lemmy read the word “liberal” and assume economically liberal, whereas every person I’ve ever encountered IRL would use it to mean socially liberal.
- Comment on Funny, those guys don't usually agree on that much 4 days ago:
That seems like one very specific definition specifically for economically-neo-liberal, only mentioned below all the actual definitions
- Comment on Funny, those guys don't usually agree on that much 4 days ago:
My thoughts exactly! Every real-life human I’ve ever spoken to uses it to mean open-minded and every definition I look up agrees, yet for some reason half the people posting here think it exclusively means economically-neo-liberal capitalist.

I am not, and I’ve observed that every American seems to have their own definition of what “liberal” means, which is not really very helpful when trying to use the word in a discussion

Open-minded, permissive, tolerant

They don’t all have to be shots of spirits, adjust your drink based on how smashed you’re planning on getting. I played shot chess a few years ago, the pawns were beer, the other pieces were different drinks increasing in strength up to the king which was absinthe.

If I know anything about

Isn’t this the story of every rural area in every country? Communities that are out in the middle of nowhere won’t have had much cultural exchange and tend to become insular.

Na mate, I think you need to chill out a bit
- Comment on Anon moves on 1 week ago:
Too many people can’t get out of the us vs them mindset. They think it’s OK to wish horrors on the enemy because the enemy is evil and they are good, ignoring the fact that the enemy feels the same way about them.

Ah yeah of course it’s not an element, though I don’t think the original post was about the best elemental metal
- Comment on Anon hates aluminum 1 week ago:
Never heard that before, what’s the reasoning? Given that they contain metallic elements, have metallic properties, have metallic bonds, and many are colloquially referred to as metals, what makes you think they aren’t metals?

Well the RSPB shockingly are quite against hunting animals, who’d have thought it? And careful throwing stones from your glass house, didn’t your lot hunt the bison almost to extinction the moment they landed?
