its who liberals are man. they throw shade at everyone else and liberals are the problem. its very simplistic when you think about it all. its always the loud and crying kid that causes all the issues. not the one in the corner being quiet.

How in the world does this end up being about liberals?

Are Bette Midler's opinions on economic and social systems connected to her mean tweet? What about her favorite ice cream flavor? Frankly I think it's chocolate and I think this says everything we need to know about chocoholics. Bunch of intolerant jerks.

isn't that what we do on P & R? Throw out crap with a broad shovel that we think makes the other side look bad.
Bette Midler is a liberal so all liberals are pieces of trash!
Fight me!

Ah, I get it. I had no idea she's a liberal, so I was lost from the get go. Social liberal? Economic? Classical? Just in terms of taxation? In terms of all issues except taxation? We have to make sure we're hating the correct category of people here. If she's a fiscal moderate but a social liberal I don't want to go hating on fiscal liberals by mistake.

I'm becoming further confused at what everybody believes I ought to think. I think in many ways, understanding the actually meaning of the labels we are forced to take, I am more liberal and progressive than those that think they are liberal and progressive.

I've got a friend who considers himself a "leftist" and calls me a "liberal" and thinks I'm wrong about a variety of political issues. From what I can tell, "leftist" is where you like identity politics, cancel culture, and unrealistic solutions to complicated problems, and hate people who think differently from you because they are monsters. "Liberals," meanwhile, are basically conservatives in sheep's clothing who aren't woke and are part of the problem.
I'm not endorsing any of these labels but just describing what I think my friend believes.

and I could be wrong, because I obviously wasn't alive then, but I think (from research) the strength of our ancestors who founded this country was they were able to be tolerant of different thought.
While I do believe Christian ideals helped put this experiment together, this was never a "Christian country." And this was on purpose.
There were a lot of differing views, but acceptance and tolerance and respect for others was a reality. Not there was no nastiness, there was just more openness.

Isn't it weird how she was immediately criticized for her bad tweet and nobody (practically, there's probably at least one idiot out there) bent over backwards to defend her?

The leaders appeased the gator in hopes he would eat them last. Midler isn't the first to be eaten but she is one of the first of the leaders. The gator continues...

That is a quality observation, sir, and one I can get behind. Or in front of.
Whatever. Those of you arguing, carry on.

Because Bette Midler is the spokesperson for tolerance?

It seems like you're accusing her of hypocrisy, which is fine, but who really cares what Bette Midler thinks? Looks like everyone's calling her a racist now, so the usual system is doing its job.

Typical and disgusting.
These libs are so stupid they do not even realize the hypocrisy they live in and create.
98% of the chit they do and say is fake. Completely divorced from reality.
