Most of the "slams" concerning liberalism, maybe all of them, are responses to being called a name ironically.

To my knowledge, I know of NO "conservative playbook" at all.

If you know of this "playbook" let us hear it.

My opinion, and this is simply my opinion, liberalism has become nothing more than a platform for social activists. If you disagree, I would love to hear why you disagree and that would make a great conversation. And be clear, I am not anti activism, but not the arrogant "in your face" type we have seen recently.

I will tell you that normally on this forum, it is at this point when a name is thrown. I, personally, have never called anyone a name. I certainly will get in your face about activism and disguising it as some political movement and am open to discuss that in total, but normally at this point, I am referred to as one of these...

and old white curmudgeon
a white sheet award winner
a racist
a bigot
OR

told to crawl back in my hole and conversation ends, which actually always make the point I allude to.
Again, if a liberal thinker makes a point with no name calling and in return SIMPLY BECAUSE YOUR VIEW IS DIFFERENT, you are called a name, make a big deal of it and do it without resorting to calling names yourself.
