I heard that the word “liberty” doesn’t have a universal meaning. The colonists saw Liberty as freedom from British, to do business as they wish with less regulation. The Chinese saw Liberty as a group effort to free themselves from the yoke of feudalism. Hot take, but I don’t like using the word “liberty” in political contexts because of how vastly the definition changes country by country. It’s an abstract ideal.
I don’t like it because USAmericans think they’re special because their constitution talks about liberty, as if every other country’s constitution says ”yeah, tyranny for us please, liberty sucks”.
Just tell them the DPRK constitution says every citizen has equal rights

For what it’s worth, the US constitution does not actually say this — even the Fourteenth Amendment doesn’t go that far. That’s why US states can get away with depriving felons the right to vote — it never guaranteed that right.
And during Covid’s height, “Liberty” meant getting others sick and not being considerate by being vaccinated. I’m so sick of the word “liberty”. Just wait 15-30 years in your current country (or go to another country) to see the definition of the word change drastically and unrecognizably.
then go on complaining about george soros woke globalist agenda, that you can’t tell innocent jokes anymore and how it was better in the good ol’ days that u could say any racist slur and nobody would get offended by it
The worst part is that they don’t even understand what edgelord comedy is.
The best example of edgelord comedy imo is a big chunk of “Stinkmaner Strikes Back” from the Boondocks, I laughed my ass off at the idea of someone being so racist that Satan himself sent them back to earth back just to be racist again… only to be defeated by being chill.
I say “a big chunk of” because in some sections I can’t get the punchline to laugh at like the exorcism scene.

nowdays when people spit liberty, most of the time is to be racist

“Actually it’s edgelord humor.”
Yeah, you can be an 2016-style edgelord without being racist.
