pluralism is the foundational insight of liberalism and actually it’s pretty important and good!
A member of the Military Operations Command drops some pure logic:
"you want to worship God or the Devil, it's not our business, we can talk about that on a cup of tea, you convince me, I convince you, whatever. As for the State, it must accommodate for all to live in it"

I mean that's what happens when you win in any sustainable fashion, the people implementing your project transition from being dashing idealists to bureaucratic norm-maintainers, it's kind of inevitable. But yes, it is high time that liberalism rediscovered the violence inherent within itself.

The far-right hates liberalism in part because liberalism empowered women socially, politically, and economically, and so made them less dependent on settling for a mediocre man to provide for them. So they want to destroy liberalism to return women to a state of powerlessness and dependence.
The Heritage Foundation has released a 250-year roadmap to “save America.”
The document is a how-to guide for subjugating girls & young women: a detailed plan to push them out of college, funnel them into early marriage and motherhood, and then trap them there.

In order to get to a liberalism that builds we need to first have a liberalism that fights.

Its kind of becoming clear that American conservatives don't just hate liberalism (late 20th century market-friendly socially egalitarian values) they hate Liberalism (18th century philosophy embracing individual rights and democracy)

look, you don’t get the abundance without the liberalism.
we’ve established that pretty firmly over the course of the last century.
so maybe if you want abundance your time would be better spent talking people who currently want abundance but not liberalism into liberalism.

It's time for carceral liberalism (complimentary)
I hope Democrats learn from Merrick Garland’s mistakes and the failure of Obama’s “move on” strategy vis-a-vis Bush era war crimes, and understand that all these people ultimately need to go to prison.
here's video of AG Pam Bondi claiming on Fox last night that the Trump administration "absolutely" will keep doing deportation flights even in the face of court orders telling them to stop

Western liberalism enabled not only this being done to Gaza but also to south Lebanon and southwestern Syria.
This video was filmed in Palestine.
My heart struggles to comprehend such cruelty and the heartbreaking disregard for human life. No human being should have to endure this.

the atlantic has been like this for a long time but man, it really blows that the flagship publication for american liberalism has abandoned *liberalism* wholesale because of trans athletes and woke student governments
International law no longer serves as an instrument of global stability—and the U.S. should use this moment to argue for a different approach to the rules of war, John Yoo argues.
A New International Law Can Rise From the Ashes
The United States should use this moment to argue for a different approach to the rules of war.

Same with liberalism tbh.
I genuinely think that one of the biggest feminist challenges right now is that feminism was so successful that a lot of people can’t even imagine what the world was like before it.
A sign of societal progress is that both of my children (now 25 and 19) were utterly baffled when I explained that the title Ms. was a controversial political statement when I was a kid. It’s completely normal to them, not worthy of comment or even something to be thought about

This is genuinely western liberalism summed up in a 30 second video. Incredible. Put it in an art gallery.

Real liberalism has been tried.
First it created the Constitution.
Then it abolished slavery.
Then it ended segregation.
Then it created the greatest surge of prosperity in history.
Our problems today are not because liberalism failed.
They are because we failed liberalism.
