Hey Micheal, corporate needs you to tell the difference between these two pictures.

To all the infallible unblemished champions of the proletarian revolution who are shitting on "libs":

According to the Concise Oxford Dictionary of Politics and Western Political Theory in the Face of the Future, this is the definition of liberalism:

Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, right to private property and equality before the law.

In your own words, what do you think "lib" means? And if you're going with my cited textbook definition, what's so offensive to you about the tenets that are listed?

Either words' definitions matter or they don't, and if they don't, then none of what you say matters.

Generally it is used as a derogatory remark towards the flank of capitalist that often styles themselves 'leftist'.

In a very reductive sense it means if you're offended by being called it, then it means you.
