Reply #26: yeah, kinda like reproductive rights and freedom

The Democratic Party didn't have much to say about that during the 60s either, I think.

Or about racial equality, for quite a while prior to that.

And it still doesn't have much to say about, oh, equal marriage rights.


I'm afraid I'm not catching your drift.


If the Democratic Party hasn't got on board yet, then the issue is a right-wing hobbyhorse?

Doesn't make a lot of sense to me, but then many things don't.


And of course not everybody gives a crap what's in keeping with "liberalism". Some people take considered, principled positions on things and just don't care whether those positions square with someone else's arbitrary definition of a term that ceased to have much meaning quite a long time ago.
