I am not a liberal so I would probably just shrug. I'd be more disturbed if he said he was liberal.

i like how thanksgiving is an annual commemoration of a feast by people who deliberately avoided having fixed annual feasts because they thought it would make them meaningless

I would probably change the subject away from politics and get high with my chill libertarian uncle like a not insane weirdo would do

I don't have a libertarian uncle tho I have a batshit obnoxious liberal uncle and a small town republican uncle who is smart enough not to talk about politics, religion, or money which is how life should be

My uncle and I spent a good chunk of time talking about good concealed carry handguns today at dinner, but he is a hardcore democrat so it would just be weird if he claimed to be a libertarian.

Luckily I have this memorized.

"This morning I was awoken by my alarm clock powered by electricity generated by the public power monopoly regulated by the U.S. Department of Energy.

I then took a shower in the clean water provided by a municipal water utility.

After that, I turned on the TV to one of the FCC-regulated channels to see what the National Weather Service of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration determined the weather was going to be like, using satellites designed, built, and launched by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

I watched this while eating my breakfast of U.S. Department of Agriculture-inspected food and taking the drugs which have been determined as safe by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

At the appropriate time, as regulated by the U.S. Congress and kept accurate by the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the U.S. Naval Observatory, I get into my National Highway Traffic Safety Administration-approved automobile and set out to work on the roads built by the local, state, and federal Departments of Transportation, possibly stopping to purchase additional fuel of a quality level determined by the Environmental Protection Agency, using legal tender issued by the Federal Reserve Bank.

On the way out the door I deposit any mail I have to be sent out via the U.S. Postal Service and drop the kids off at the public school.

After spending another day not being maimed or killed at work thanks to the workplace regulations imposed by the Department of Labor and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, enjoying another two meals which again do not kill me because of the USDA, I drive my NHTSA car back home on the DOT roads, to my house which has not burned down in my absence because of the state and local building codes and Fire Marshal's inspection, and which has not been plundered of all its valuables, thanks to the local police department.

And then I log on to the internet -- which was developed by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Administration -- and post on Facebook and the Fox News forums about how SOCIALISM is BAD and the government can't do anything right."
