I’m from Germany.

We have more political options than just “conservative or liberal” here.

Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, right to private property and equality before the law.

Am I liberal according to that? yes.

Liberty is the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one’s way of life, behavior, or political views.

Am I liberal according to that? yes.

But this applies probably to most of the people, probably also you.

We have a German party calling themselves the liberals (FDP) and they fight for a more liberal economy, e.g. less control through the state. Do I vote for them? No. Too much focus on the rich…

So, am I liberal in the end? Depends on how you define it.

Maybe center-left is a better word…


Holocaust does not defend the fact that Israel is a settler state

Holocaust??

BTW: I did not even argue against the settlements argument.

I see nothing wrong with their goals.

I think, the main difference between us is: I’m always thinking how a solution could look like. How to end this?

A solution works only with government changes in both countries and international pressure to get a 2-state-solution. That’s my point.



Well, that would explain why there were also a few “Death to America” comments.


Thanks. I did not know that blocking an instance without blocking all the users is even possible.


You know what? That’s actually true. I saw a report of Gaza doctors who described the injured patients. That was actually more disgusting. Totally on your side.

I changed my comment to limit it on Lemmy user comments.


At this point, I’m not even sure what their interpretation of “left” actually means. But seeing so many “Death to Israel” posts with burning flags there was probably the most disgusting lemmy comments content I have seen so far. Maybe, I should block their domain in my router…
