I sure would love to see some some of these memes leveling criticisms at moderates and liberals for being inflexible.

Hard to be flexible when the whole schtick of the right wing is to actively be bad people

Then it should be easy for liberals and moderates to compromise with leftists and progressives.

I get the feeling I'm mixing my definitions. In my mind liberals are generally allies of progressives and leftists, no?

[-] Sarcasmo220@lemmy.ml 4 points 7 months ago

So in Lemmy and other fediverse services, liberals are typically defined as "left of center." That's because a significant portion of fediverse users are progressives (socialists, advocates for social justice within government) to leftists (anarchists, who believe the government shouldn't exist in the first place, and communists where money shouldn't exist in the first place).

Goootcha, I was thinking the context was classical liberals who lean more right.
