I have nothing against liberals but many of the radioshows/podcasts that I enjoy are delving into super liberal territory. What is going on right now?

im losing my patience with my fellow americans misusing hte word liberal to describe anything from the center-right ideology it really is to the center/progressive left and the actual left wing of political thought that is just as opposed to liberalism as conservatives are. Please correct your vocabulary OP thanks.

If you're listening to a podcast on any topic other than angry yelling, odds are good that the person making it is a liberal.

liberal is supposed to describe pretty specific center-right ideology, and when dumbasses use it to describe that + anything left of center it stops meaning anything. The rest of the world knows this.

Could you been more specific, like what podcasts do you listen to.

Their are practically millions now.

The church of what's happening now only preaches, " if you ain't high by two pm then go gently caress yourself"

So go gently caress yourself?

its super trendy rn to just sit there and hand wring and make up names like "koolaid president man" and "orange carrot president" to attempt to slander the president-elect instead of acknowledging some responsibility for the situation,organizing a resistance and formulating actual opposition to his '"'retardation'"' and '''' bad policy'''

american liberal is losing all meaning and i'm glad.



here's the break down:



there's small government libertarian conservatism

reactionary white supremacist nationalism / reactionary tumblr identity politics trevor noah liberalism (there is a dialectical relationship between these two)

Leftism - which comprises civil rights movements, anti-capitalism, anti-imperialism, etc.

the first and last sometimes bleed into the middle section, which are really two sides of one coin

I really like a lot of NPR podcast but holy poo poo, the months preceding up to the election it was getting sooooo bad. So much poo poo on why Hillary ain't so bad, and why Donald is the ultimate evil, I know they've never been shy about showing their bias but they went whole hog!

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.

This is true. The Laser Time network podcasts talk about politics all the time now, The Slate Culture Gabfest people are crying and pissing themselves all the time about politics, etc. But I think what's happening is just that the people making those podcasts have always been liberal but they just didn't talk about politics much. But the upcoming Trump shogunate has them shocked and scared, so they're all talking about politics now because they're thinking about it constantly.

what bothers me isnt that media and entertainment are left leaning currently (they are) but it seems a lot of people cant be bothered to have an opinion so they just repeat whatever headline they read on the atlantic or the daily show. its okay to be progressive or conservative but maybe have a reason for it based on a good understanding of whats actually happening?
