Sleeping was really hard for me on night shift because people mow their lawns and you get phone calls during the day.

What party is socializing healthcare?

I love the electrolit cucumber lime. Not so much sugar. Water is still my main drink though.

I never said don't vote for them. In fact in the US right now at the national level the only choice is to vote Democrat even if you hate them. It's harm reduction.

That's fair. I'm not against strategic voting.

I'm not the same person, but I'll give it a go. It's confusing in part because liberal often means leftish leaning in the US but not elsewhere.

For example Democrat and liberal are pretty much interchangeable in US political discourse, but that's not what the word means. Liberalism is more of an economic strategy. In this sense Democrats and Republicans are both liberals. They are all conservative liberals. Does that sound like a contradiction? Only in modern US politics. One party is just more conservative socially and more economically liberal.

Left or Leftist is generally in conflict with liberal ideology, as a leftist believes in strong social safety nets like universal healthcare, universal basic income, etc. Depending on the type of leftist, this could mean things like a planned economy, workers owning the means of production, or even collectivist anarchy. Examples of leftists are Socialists and Communists.

This is why, to a leftist, it's so damn funny when a republican calls a democrat a radical leftist. No self respecting leftist would be a member of the democratic party.

Sorry for all the US centric shit on a thread about France but I think that's where the confusion usually comes from.

I've eaten pounds of cubensis (in total) and smoked DMT until I couldn't physically move my arm to take another hit. I've been on incredible, wonderful trips. But, just like you, I know it's happening inside my brain. Truth is stranger than fiction for real.
